Either that or a $5 million check to go away 😉

His ambulance chasers are only in it for one-reason and one-reason alone -- extract some 💵benjamins 💰, clip 30% of them -- and move on down the road to the next extortion attempt 🤦‍♂️

If he'd take a $5M check to go away that check would've already been written and this whole thing swept under the rug.

Why do you think a check for $5M would make it go away when Flores turned down a bribe of $100k per loss?

• A team that loses a minority assistant coach who becomes a head coach or loses a personnel executive who becomes a general manager will receive third-round compensatory picks in each of the next two drafts.

Flores took a demotion, so I guess that doesn’t apply

So much for the guy now being blackballed for suing the NFL 😂

This was just the NFLs way of avoiding a lawsuit that had substance. Dude could have taken down the entire scheme the NFL has been running years under Goodell.

Naah...they don't hand out $5M checks willy nilly.  

The guy who briefly played QB for the 49'ers settled for less than $5M and he had to limp along for years...

1.  The $100k assertion is fiction.  

2.  Flores would take the $5M because his attorneys would require him to do so -- or -- force him to find new representation.  

 

Ask yourself this, do you believer Flores is actually paying the legal bills for these incredibly high-priced New York City based ambulance-chasing hucksters?

Or, do you think they are doing the smearing and threatening on a contingency basis?

Hmm... 🧐

Why do you think that the $100k/game bribe allegations were fabricated?

Attorneys get a cut of the settlement usually, yes, that's how they get paid. Disability attorneys take up to 50% of back owed payments when folks have been initially denied. Does that make them ambulance chasers?

Why do you think it's legit?

This isn't a disability case.

Again, do you believe Flores is writing checks to pay these attorneys?

None of the "compensation" demands you "copy pasted directly from the lawsuit itself" would result in any sort of monetary reward to cover the costs/time incurred by the ambulance chasers...

...so are you thinking it's a pro bono effort on their part?

I think that it is very much possible considering that they're going to have to substantiate the claims in court in order to have any chance, but you straight up said that it is fiction so the burden of proof is on you. Rather than asking you to provide evidence for it, I'm just asking you to explain your reasoning. 

I don't know the arrangement that Flores has with his attorney. What does it matter whether or not he pays them as retainers and/or they take a % of the settlement? It's literally how attorneys are paid. Also, the section of the lawsuit I quoted beings with "Among the other relief sought," which shows that they're seeking monetary compensation. What in the world is the point that you are trying to make here?

I just don't believe Ross would do that.  Possibly I am wrong.

Makes a huge difference.  

Think about it this way...

...did the lawyers hire the plaintiff here?

He is going to take the side of the billionaire owner. He has a thing for them….

    • That's mostly me. I came into the season basically believing he was not ever going to be the guy but with a little bit of wait and see. It didn't take long of me seeing before I saw he was the same guy he has largely always been. Maybe in some future scenario 3-5 years from now he is confident enough to be a decent NFL QB. I don't really want to be the team waiting for that to happen. Let his 3rd, 4th, 5th or whatever team be the ones that figure it out.
    • Naw let him get to Tampa and crack his old fragile body with Radsom or Trey M I’d love to see him get rocked by this raw defense. He’s a fool thinking he would leave us for greener pastures I’m glad it played out this way should’ve stayed loyal to the ones who really wanted you.
    • And a legitimate question to ask is what does this offense look like once Bryce is off his rookie contract? How is that offensive line going to look? We have a ton of money invested up front and that is 100% unsustainable with Bryce making starting QB money. Icky and Moton are going to be 50m per season plus the guards at 32 and possibly Mays at 6-8 if we're lucky. Add in Bryce and that's 125m just on those 6 players if we tried to keep them all. It's just not doable.  So then the real question IMO becomes, if we spent the money on our OL, and less on a QB, would the outcome be that much different? I haven't seen Bryce elevate the offense enough by himself on a consistent basis to warrant the contract we would have to give him, not to mention the players we would have to give up, based on the accelerations of the bonuses as I understand them, would likely include Icky.
