It most certainly does NOT say more about "me than him"; It does say everything about his character, and only lends credence to my rational point of view. If he gets injured, he should fall back on his free college education, and get a job. You know, earn money like the rest of the 99.999% of people who never make it to be a highly paid professional athlete.
The Bengals have paid Joe Mixon for his services, much more than most people will earn over the course of a lifetime. If he get's injured and cannot continue, he must do like every other citizen and find another line of work.
I agree with this. If he wants to privately discuss his feelings on his salary with ownership, that's his right. it's there right to decide whether or not it's in the budget, and whether or not they think his performance merits it. They're not being mean if they say no. I think the thing that makes alot of people want to side with Mixon is our fear of losing him. Fear is a very powerful thing. It can get our values get way out of whack.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.
