    It’s not like players honor their contracts.

    You get the length guaranteed then force your way out when it’s convenient.

      Maybe they’re going to finally crack down on that with the whole Dame situation. Unlikely, but who knows. I bet enough owners are pissed to seek enforcement from the league.

        I would love to see the league do something but I don’t see how. You can’t take away the ability to say you’re not happy and the media will do everything else.

        I’m all for massively punitive punishments to a guy pushing to a specific team that hard, though. Fine the player 75% of their salary for the remainder of the contract. But good luck getting the players to agree to 75% of one game worth of fines for it.

        You’d think something has to give eventually. So many guys sign huge deals and then start demanding trades within a few seasons.
