Reading up on Jerry...

So, I was just looking up information about Jerry Richardson, mainly about how he got started as an entrepreneur. It interests me how large companies started, such as Hardee's and any other large franchise I see.

Anyway, with the pending CBA talks going on, I found this interesting from his past that I wasn't aware of...

After two solid years with Baltimore, his contract was in the amount of $9,750. However, Richardson asked for another $250, and when he and the team failed to reach an agreement, Richardson retired from football.

I'm not too familiar with the lockout, but thought with him being a major force with the owner's against player's getting paid more, that his past consists of trying to get more money when he played.

      New season new teams. Everyone we face has improved their team as well. There's now a full season of tape on Canales's offense and Bryce running it. When they win 7 games I will become a believer.

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.
