MJ sees an opportunity for a big payday and a bit of fame.. Nothing wrong with that.. He has value. It might not be as much as he thinks and very few people ever do undervalue themselves on the big stage... Some people think this all works in a vaccume. It doesn't. Marvin Jones isn't knocking on your door begging you to pay extra for a ticket so he can get paid more.. He has an agent like every player and most players now have corporate sponsors of sorts to manage all kinds of nonsense from marketing to events they're scheduled to attend and on and on.
We all see the press releases of how much player X cares about the community and how they help crippled orphans and busloads of nuns and all that.. It's called marketing just like how much the NFL cares about breast cancer so players wear pink. I hate to break the news to anyone, but that's all about trying to sell "gear" to women. The NFL as an organization care about breast cancer about like we all care about the embossed patterns on toilet paper. It's about public perception and making money. They want market share and players also want market share.. Last time I checked they call it capitalism.. Roddy White in exchange for MJ? Man, you should bottle that and sell it in head shops..
