Palmer: Facing Bengals "not just another game"

People who make lots of money quit and change jobs all the time.  They don't think that their boss "owns them" just because they get paid a fair wage for their skills.

Another funny thing.  People around here are always saying we should release certain players when they still have years left on their contracts, but then they scream bloody murder just because Palmer left with years left on his contract.

Palmer raped the Bengals by leaving with the biggest bonus ever given a Bengals player. He was given that bonus for a long term contract, a long term contract he refused to honor.

Who cares if another team would have paid him as that has no relevance. He did not honor the contract. As for your lame argument about MB honoring contracts, it is lame as well and you know it has no legal merit. The team contracts allow for outs in the contract (for the team), they do not for the player in 99% of the cases once all guarantees are met which is the true contract number, the rest is honored based on performance per the contract.
