Jackson's Holdout

I'm most definitely with Patti on objecting to Jackson's (or any professional athlete's holdout). These people sign contracts and should expect to have to abide by them. In Stephen's case, my understanding is that the Rams did not have the new agents name provided to them until very recently. How can you negotiate an agreement if you don't know who is doing the negotiation? Professional athletes' astronomical pay scale makes it very hard to find any sympathy for their 'plight' in contract negotiations. Here we are looking at millionaires negotiationg with billionaires again. The only difference for a football player is that NFL owners do seem to be able to slide out of contracts easier, with 'guaranteed money' being much less prevalent than in baseball. Nonetheless Stephen, please get yourself into camp, and make it quick!!
