Then why did you get divorced?

Thanks Patriots
 

Every player should want a guaranteed contract. Top players in baseball and basketball have a little more negotiating clout to get them, because individual players make more difference to a team's success and because careers are longer. NFL careers are so short that many more football contracts are signed when no one has a particularly good idea whether the player will be any good at all.

I thought it was "the hand that pets the kitty-cat..." but I have probably been watching too much Austin Powers.

I think I've found a new definition for "time to quit."

Coltrane, how close are you to this point? On a regular basis?

Form an exit strategy, and start implementing it -- before it gets too late, and you need to just walk.

Do you work for your in-laws or something? I said ditch wife, kids -- not ditch job.

Because she was Queen of her Domain, and she wanted to change the subject.


Ba-dum-bum. Thanks, I'll be here all week. Tip the staff.

Sidd give it a rest you haven't met me and have no idea if I am indeed in fact pretty.

I think Bledsoe would rather have a 2 year guaranteed contract worth $30 million than a sham five year $75 million one that could leave him open to constant renegotiation and termination at any point after the ink dries.

That sounds like a chapter in the book I can't wait to read.

Divorce doesn't change mother-ness.

They also seem to want to take the risk. Why don't they buy a massively expensive insurance policy with the huge bonus, that pays if their career ends? Apparently they like the risk or are willing to take it.

I take no issue with staying at home my husband does and the kids are doing so well. It is an admirable job and the kids benefit greatly.

I take issue with your "shock and surprise" that I'm not all like coveting your situation and all jealous. frankly, I could care less. It ain't the ideal situation but no ones is but it is yours. so go with that. don't look for reassurance from the board.

With no wife or kids, why would I work? The van is all paid off.

sure it does. assuming she had kids at the time why would she do that to them? if she didn't whatever.

I don't understand the question. Or rather, I don't understand what one has to do with the other.

I think that plenty of women stay home without feeling like they've "ceded control". In fact, I know a whole bunch of women who feel like they're in charge, regardless of who makes the money.

I got divorced because I didn't want to be married any more, specifically to my husband. Money, and by extension control, was never really an issue in our divorce.
