When you say “people” are you talking about me? If so, then you are disregarding the fact I said that I don’t blame him for wanting to get paid, that he is a great player, and would love to have him back. However, a giant RB contract doesn’t make sense for our team IMO. He can go reset the market somewhere else. That is essentially “I want free agent money” talk in the CFL. Certainly for a RB. But this has been explained many times now. You’re talking about the best WR in the league who has led the league in receiving TDs basically since he stepped on the field. We aren’t talking “really good”. We are talking all time level good. I know you want to make what I am saying into something more dramatic. I don’t value Oliveira as much as Schoen for the reasons that have been mentioned many many times about the position he plays. That is what it boils down to. The same way I would have loved to have Desjarlais back - but not at that price. Good for him, moving on.

Nobody is “turning” on Brady. He is a great player that everyone would love to have back. If he wants to “reset the market” he can do it somewhere else. He didn’t build this team up over years and years like many others - he walked into a finished product. It is bit of a slap in the face of guys who actually did turn this around damn near a decade ago - lplayed major roles in winning Cups- and took less to stay here. He wants it to be all business - so don’t be surprised when it gets treated like a business on both sides. I Don't blame him for wanting to get paid, but it doesn’t fall in line with FIFO, and he plays a position that should be easier to replace. So happy travels if that is what he wants.

He said he would tell his son to come play for the Bombers if it doesn’t work out down there. -

So embarrassing. Thee are the biggest joke of a franchise in NA sports and always will be. This is why they go so crazy when they inevitably lose every single year. They get pumped up based on nothing and it crashes down. -
It doesn’t really fit into what other guys have said and done to stay here. I can remember two years ago Brady went on a podcast and said he wanted to get paid , and that was before he had really done that much. That’s fine, I’m never mad at a guy wanting to get paid, but I don’t really get attached to those players in the same way. It is a business. If you gotta go, you gotta go. I would say it didn’t work out very good for Lawler (in Edmonton) or Lewis (they clearly didn’t need him).
