Carson, Boomer both asked for trades. Corey Dillon threw his equipment into the stands after the final game of the 2003 season. Chad asked for a trade prior to 2008. TJ didn't re-sign with us after 2008 and made a few snide remarks after he left. Takeo Spikes ripped us a new one as well. Dan Wilkinson ripped the city and Mike Brown apart before he was sent to the Redskins... I'm sure there's more I can't think of and I'm sure there will be even now in the not-so-distant future

Good job guys. Then you have the letter that guys like Wilcots and Lapham (and several others) wrote to Mike Brown, pleading with him to hire a GM back in 2002ish. Then you have multiple accounts of Mike's cheapness through the years, players complaining about practicing in the elements, yada yada.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
