For starters, I didn't go anywhere with the cancer thing. But now I will.

My mother is going through chemo, you want the Chiefs to give her 12 million when she makes it through it?

I could give a shit less about what his value as a man is.

His only value to the Kansas City Chiefs is what he does on the football field. There are plenty of safeties in the NFL that do what Eric Berry does. None of them make over 10 million per. In fact, most of them don't get 7 million per. Some that get 7 million per are just as good as Eric Berry, if not better, at what he is asked to do for this team.

Amen

Have you watched DJ try to play in pass coverage? That cincy game alone was embarrassing. He's a non factor against the top offensive teams. Neither ILBs can cover the sidelines adequately cause they are either slow, old, overweight or a combination

Sorry to hear about your mother, but this post in this context is just about the stupidest shit ever.

Congratulations, dumb****.

I give two ****s what you think, asshole?

You could give a shit less about my mother. And to state it otherwise is ridiculous at best.

The truth is hard for some people to swallow. Berry doesn't deserve preferential treatment because he beat cancer. ****ing reeruned shit around here.

Have to agree with kccrow. The Chiefs aren't a charity but they have already given Berry a handout when they opted to pay him for the rest of 2014 and not place him on the NFI. Time for him to return the favor like a good soldier

Because you are too stupid.

Intelligence doesn't require agreeing with you.

You can slap 95% of Chiefs' fans in the face with facts and they're still too ****ing stupid to get it or too emotionally attached to players. ****, if half these guys were Patriots fans, they'd all be on 16 different anti-depressants.

I don't even disagree with you overall.

12 mil is too much.

Bringing your mother in the conversation in the context you did is what makes you a stupid ****.

Pretty much true. The bowe incident was a classic example of this. Those apologists were so delusional.

It isn't stupid. Some ass clown brought cancer into the equation. I elaborated using that as an example. And my mother does have cancer. Just like the Chiefs shouldn't pay her for having cancer, they shouldn't pay Berry for it. It makes no sense. None. It is irrelevant. You see my mother having cancer as irrelevant. I see Berry's having cancer as irrelevant. It's equal ground. There are people on this board that have cancer, none of whom I would guess expect to be paid for it. The Chiefs aren't a sympathy center, they're a goddamned football team. Hatchet burried should you agree.

Berry should be compensated equivalent to the value he brings to the team. As we've talked about, that isn't on par with some of the numbers being thrown about. I argue it's nowhere near, but I concede the NFL as a business and expect him to be compensated in the realm of Thomas. It's not what I'd do as a GM, but I'm not the GM.

I'd be willing to bet he didnt even have cancer. He got cured of it real quick

Oh I recall Bowe... I was one of the one's begging for the axe.

Had huge arguments over the value of Dustin Colquitt on this board and another.

Best wishes for your Mom

But stop acting like he just hobbled back in there for a few token appearances in a meaningless feel good story

All Pro in his return, surely still reeling from industrial strength poison treatments... you're too busy looking at dollars to look at football players

This guy is a Ronnie Lott type, he will sell out body and soul to play football... desire and will is worth more than a thousand 40s or bench presses
