Frey, I hate to break it to you but almost every NFL player's #1 priority is getting that next contract. Sure they want to win and be on a good team, but for the most part, their own career is the top priority. Is Sanders a little more vocal about it? Sure. But there is nothing unusual about where his priorities lie.

I don't give a crap that his priority is getting a new contract. All that was meant was to point out to you why he's ballin out on the field. That's not my issue with him and that seems to be getting lost here. You and Val are both focusing on that section of things as if that's why I'm pissed and maybe I didn't explain that well enough.

I hate the guy's overall attitude. Go bust your ass off for a new contract, I'm fine with that if you are putting your all on the field that's good for you and for the team. It's everything else about how he handles himself that I'm kinda over. He does a lot of stupid stuff (the taunting penalty a few games back is a good example) that is just selfish.

I get that most WR's are divas. Maybe I'm just spoiled by high character guys like Rod and DT, but he rubs me wrong. I liked the guy pre-2015, he's just pissed me off a lot ever since then.

I guess I just don't give a crap about that kind of stuff. I just want guys to perform. DT is a great guy and awesome teammate, and probably one of those 10% of guys who was all about the team, but he just wasn't performing anymore. All I care about is production. Give me the guy who produces and is a loudmouth over the team guy who isn't getting it done.

Sports are entertainment. It's a fun thing. I have fun watching guys make plays for the broncos. I don't have the time to worry about how big of a diva a player is or isn't.

fair enough, you don't like him. I have literally no issue with that.

I misread your rationale, (the thing about the contract) and just wanted to clarify that - you have done that. Hate away.

Not wanting to stir the pot - but i was just wondering, does your "high caliber" standard stretch to Pacman Jones, Will Parks, TJ Ward, Von Miller or Talib? All of whom have displayed other qualities that suggest they are not of high character? (really not being argumentative, i am just wondering)

I get where you are coming from, I dunno. I appreciate the play on the field, just not a fan of the personality.

I'll support the guy on the field as long as he's on the team, just don't care for him.

Character isn't really the issue either. The thing those dudes you mentioned have in common is that they are all huge team players. We'll other than pac man... He's a hired gun to fill a need.

I get it seems hypocritical that I love Talib hood attitude and not sanders... I can't provide a good counter to that, maybe it is hypocritical...

as much as people are complaining about that taunting penalty, you'd think the guy was michael dean perry. . .

Tory James?

Then when you talk about your motives to get a pay rise - no way Sanders gets a bigger contract that what he is already on, him balling out, is an effort to stay employed with as close to his current salary as possible.

Perhaps if your contract was expiring, and you new it was likely you would take a pay cut, you might try to project yourself in the best possible light.

Why do I think this was aimed at me?

Stupid wanker.

Because you are a raging narcissist that thinks everything is about you?

Thanks, Dave.

Joe if he was talking about you he'd have said he hates people for noxious reasons, not innocuous. He likes his big words and all.

Noxious is smaller than innocuous
