VERY GOOD ARTICLE: http://espn.go.com/magazine/vol5no18james.html makes me rethink Incentive based contracts some anyway . . . Rocket River
WOW. After reading this article i have the most respect for him, i thought he was selfish for the offseason stuff he pulled, but now i see what this guy has been up to. He tells it like it is.. You can now put EDGE at the top of my favourite players list
cool article...thanks. i never thought about incentive laden contracts and their effects on performance late in a game.
BOO HOO .... Nothing worse than a guy getting paid millions to play a freakin game whine about his contract.... He's the dumbass that signed it..he needs to take it up with his agent.
He had NO problem in his rookie year when he made $16 million because of this crappy incentive laden contract. (The $16 mill, might not be exact, but I do remember there was alot of talk about him and Rickey the first year and how much more he made than Rickey. And I believe it was $16 mill. It might have only been $13 however.) Funny how he is b****ing when he didnt live up to his end of the bargain, but when he meets the incentives, all is well with the world.
I think his biggest b**** is that it was an INJURY that cost him. If he just did not get it. . . HE does not seem the type to b**** so much about that Rocket River I could be wrong
