Adrian Peterson Twitter

quote:

I love people who think they know it all! Smh, Research how many NFL teams hasn't honored a player's contract & learn something.


quote:

Question for the people, is a contract two sided or one?


quote:

Ok great two sided! Well why when one party decides ... Mr. ? we wan't you to take a pay cut now or better yet flat out release you!


quote:

There's never no talk about honoring a contract!


quote:

I know hundreds of player's that wished their team would've HONORED the contract! But instead got threw to the side like like trash.




First off.........well spoken.


Secondly, checkbook, AP. Who signs it?

If he acts an arse & becomes a distraction, he does which seems be why he isn't at OTAs. It's probably the reason for this rant on Twitter too.

Not really. You can do that all you want.

It'll just end up in fines and less money.

He's not passing up 12 million to play this year

His kid needs to take a switch to him and tell him to STFU.

If he is complaining about his contract not being fully guaranteed like NBA contracts, then he's barking up the wrong tree

I'd like to know of one NFL contract that wasn't honored.

By the team that is.

He's complaining about that and not being able to freely leave for another team while under contract. He doesn't understand the definition of a contract.

Google Translate needs an Adrian Peterson additiion.

Here is a gem from 2014:

quote:

“It’s modern-day slavery, you know?” Peterson said. “People kind of laugh at that, but there are people working at regular jobs who get treated the same way, too. With all the money . . . the owners are trying to get a different percentage, and bring in more money.”

Hard to believe that a man would think that tweets, texts, and such are how a man handles his business. SMH.

Remember when the MLBPA went on strike and got the World Series cancelled. That sent a strong message to the owners and eventually they folded. If NFL players want change, go on strike and sit out the whole season.

The NBA players can barely make it past 2 months in a lockout/strike situation and they still don't get raped as hard as the NFLPA does whenever that stuff happens
