Whit is trying to play the poor "I wanted to retire in Cincinnati" card, likely to try to get on the Ring of Honor. If he wanted to, there was nothing stopping him from signing the one year deal that was offered. He chose to go for a longer deal. That was his choice, and he was free to make it, just don't now whine and say you wanted to stay. He made his choice.
Ive wanted to stay with companies i worked for in the past. I told them i got an offer to do the same/similar job with another company...heres my offer letter. I DO NOT want to leave. If you pay me the same money they are offering I would love to stay here. Ive been in this situation multiple times and some companies gave me a raise and other companies told me to kick rocks and take the new job. He did make a choice but the Bengals essentially made it for him when they told him well offer you alot less money than anybody else and if you dont like it leave. Pretty much anybody that was in Whitworths shoes would have done exactly what he did. He wanted to stay, he had been here and liked it here, but his employer gave him an ultimatum to take half of what hes worth or leave. So he left.
