I really don't begrudge any player for getting whatever he can on the open market in pro sports. It is after all what most people do in any profession. Even if the players played for a small fraction of what they do now the owners would still be charging the highest ticket prices they could get away with, going for the biggest possible TV contracts, the biggest advertisement contracts, and keeping the profits for themselves. How many times have we heard "ticket prices will be increasing next season because we are committed to putting a quality product on the field" They don't give you money back if the team stinks.
No matter how much allegiance a player shows to a team they get traded at the drop of a hat or get let go as soon as there performance falters a little. It is a business, and as most players find out in division 1 of NCAA, the fun part ended in high school.

I miss to old days when I knew pretty much year to year who was on the Raiders and who would be back after offseason!
And year in year out, in the 30+ years of the Sullivans owning the Pats
They sucked and were the joke of the NFL like the Cardinals, the Saints,ect...
Ah , the good old days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
