See alot of comments on how arrogant peppers sounded, He didn't sounds arrogant at all... Some of you might not know but peppers rarely did interviews and avoided media for this kind of reason, it's akward for him to talk to media and when he does it takes him a while because it seems if says what he wants to say in his mind before he says it.

And about the whole him leaving thing, Of course we offerd him a big contract to re-sign him and he made a excuse saying he does not deserve that type of money after a poor year, but we all know thats not the truth... The guy wanted to go to a winning football team and win a ring, How can you blame the guy?

FYI Steve was going to do the same thing but unlike peppers, steve had a family that was more important to him.

For the record, there was never anything more than baseless speculation that Steve was gonna do the same thing.

I respect the desire to go to a winning organization, but the Bears really haven't done any more since he's been in the league than we have. For him to lean on that as the reason to leave, he should have pick an organization that is actually ran better than the Panthers. I still think his top reason for leaving was wanting to be able to disappear in the crowd and not be the spotlight player for a team. He wants to do his job, collect his paycheck, and go home. That's fine. I just didn't like all the doublespeak and games being played in the media.

Steve said it not the media... as in

He said he was open to leaving, then said he stayed because theres things more important then football aka his family.

part of the anger is driven by a deep-set fear that he's gonna go off against us for a handful of sacks and FFs.

Negative Ghost Rider, If there is hate(and there is) for this guy then it has nothing to do with my fear that he is gonna be good against us. The hate that i have is pouring all the support and well wishes on a guy and then watch him take a giant horse piss right in the face of every fan that loved him.

So all you fans who think we (I) are being so mean spirited or just bein "mad" I aint mad, I'm glad he got what he wanted and I'm glad that i got to see him dissapear for the other team as much as he did here. Peace out Pep and Godspeed.

Link me where Smitty said he was open to leaving. I missed that article.

Steve is still under contact....and Steve acknowledged he went to his family to discuss where he wanted to play and what they would do. He said his family is the reason he decided to stay hear and honor his contract (which through Smitty's words he was heavily considering not doing that).

that means Smitty was considering doing something worse than Peppers did....Pep played out his contract and Smitty was deciding on if he was going to try and force a trade.
