Hammer less useful without the nail

August 03, 2018 06:11AM
Donald holds THE only card that matters... himself. All the other cards, hammers, levers etc. are useless if he decides not to play. And why would he? Who is advocating that he risk potentially $100 million for $7 million? $7 million is a lot of money but $93 million is more... its like from the earth to the sun more.

I would sit out. I don't understand the reasoning to do anything else. Why would anyone in AD's situation play without an extension???

No one answered why he played last year in a question I posed last week... Maybe it had something to do with the CBA last year. Pretty sure it doesn't this year as far as his right to seek a fair contract.

Not pro Donald here. I just don't understand how the "leverage/hammer" metaphor applies in this case... UNLESS the Rams just sit him until his contract is out and don't trade him.

IF I were Donald I would seek a fair contract, sign it and play for the Rams for the next 4 or 5 years. We don't know if that has even been offered yet.
