Rosenhaus' clients jumping the shark.

Just a question why do we care?

We don't pay them, we don't make the contracts?

Why do we care if who the agent is? or What a player makes?

Just something I considered the other day. I am one who looks at the salary, now I just cannot figure out why I really need to care...

You're right, we don't pay the agents - at least not directly.

In this instance, Drew Rosenhaus appeared to poach a top-level client from a smaller agent who had gotten his client a deal that averaged $7 million per year on my favorite team. Rosenhaus then proceeded to rattle his saber everywhere and anywhere - in violation of his "rules of engagement" that he espouses in his autobiography - that TO's contract is unfair, as if $7 mil per year is a pittance for someone playing a game. After all is said and done, Rosenhaus has made an ass of himself and a laughingstock of his client.

I care because I am a lifelong Eagles fan, and he sabotaged my team's season. This man's ego led him to make promises he ultimately couldn't keep to a man who has the psychological age of a child, and swallowed up every word. Along the way, he's at least partially responsible for making this season the least enjoyable season of football I can remember, and I lived through 3-13 and the Rich Kotite Era. The agent is a blowhard scumbag who didn't need to intercede, except for his own personal gain (he got no commission on TO's old contract, which he had no involvement in).

That's why I care.

And you can't spell S-C-R-E-W-E-D without D-R-E-W.

As a fellow Drew, I resent that.
