Grits and Shins Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 You certainly have the right to your opinion, but V-Jax has the right to handle his business affairs the way he sees fit. That does not make him an unreasonable ass it makes him someone who is doing what he thinks is right. My question is, is what AJ is doing good for the Chargers. By sticking to his guns is he making the Chargers better or worse. Seems to me the Bolts would be better with V-Jax on the team as opposed to sitting out for 6 weeks coming back disgruntled and then leaving for FA. I think that all parties involved have already determined that VJ's days are done in SD ... so I don't that is an option any more. Certainly VJ has the right to conduct his business any way he sees fit ... that does not change the fact that he is being an unreasonable ass. If my auto mechanic suddenly decided that his services were worth vastly more than his normal rates and decided to hold my car until I paid him $10,000 for my oil change I'd say he was being an unreasonable ass. Do you see the similarity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Apparently a deal was in place last week, but SD compensation was the sticking point. It appears that V-Jax has cooled off on his contract demands. Now it's just a matter of if AJ will follow suit. His sense of timing is a bit off ... he should have done this BEFORE the season.

JUMbotron Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 A game of chicken that went too far. Either way I just don't see V-Jax being a huge contributor until he starts fresh in 2011. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v0dka Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 The four-game window has helped return the process to where it was two Saturdays ago. Per a league source, at least one team has worked out a deal with Jackson; the question becomes whether the Chargers can agree to the terms of a trade. The thinking is that the Chargers will wait until the Week Two games have been played, given the possibility that a high-end wideout on a contending team pops an ACL on Sunday afternoon, Sunday night, or Monday night. If that happens, the freshly-injured player's team could jump into the bidding. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...ll-the-trigger/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you see the similarity? No, I don't see the similarity. You have the right to take your car anywhere you want and the mechanic has the right to charge anything he wants. VJ does not have that choice. If he was truly able to shop his wares I'm sure VJ would get the money he is seeking. The bolts will not pay him what the market will bear and will not let him go to else were to get the money he is entitled to. So Vj is doing what he thinks is right in an effort to cash in on his skills while he is still able. I don't see that as being an unreasonable ass, I see it as business.

twofeetinbounds Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 I think the way he is handling his business does make him an unreasonable ass. Once again, your opinion. However, I think good arguments can be made by both parties that the other is being unreasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL ... okay the mechanic is an unreasonable ass for thinking he can charge anybody $10,000 for an oil change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roustabout Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 I hope the mechanic gets traded to the Redskins because I picked him up off waivers. Why? 1. Decent offense, good QB, less competition at WR. 2. The mechanic reportedly fixed cars with McNabb in the off-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 You also didn't see the NFL reducing his suspension if he's traded, but we know how that worked out . It's a matter if AJ wants to get anything for V-Jax or not. If he comes in by week 10 then he will be a UFA next year, depending on the CBA of course.
