Forked from: Really awesome comments from our players (http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showpost.php?postid=2758717)
"Obviously, the NFL is about making money. If that is what they are doing, that's what they are doing. Other than that, as long as they are making money I am getting paid, so do what you do." - Kawika Mitchell
I've been saying for weeks now that Mitchell is "feast or famine"- he'll make a great play on the blitz or he'll get an INT when he's running free underneath, but he sucks in pass coverage, doesn't make tackles in the running game, etc.
Well, I think we can all see why. Mr. "3 teams in 3 years" is nothing more than a mercenary. He just wants his paycheck. He'll work his ass off if he thinks he can make a highlight reel out of a play, but why risk injury on a routine play when there is so much money to be made.
I just lost a lot of respect for this guy.
And BTW- I don't have a problem with him wanting to get paid. We all do. But read the initial thread. Peters and Losman were complaining about how it didn't feel like a home game, and Brown and Will Allen from the Fish said they had support and it was easier than playing in Buffalo. So, while the other players are talking about home-field advantage and sacrificing it, he's talking about money.
