What are the Denver Broncos doing right now? They are just a joke; they made a good hire; I thought. Josh McDaniels should be able to turn in into an offensive mastermind. He's learned from some of the best, and I think he's young and brash enough to make big things happen, but here is my problem. They are talking contract extension with WR Brandon Marshall? Really? This is the same guy that batted down passes on purpose during practice, walked while everybody else jogged/stretched, and then pulled the ultimate douchebag move and punted the ball away from the ballboy. Wow, because THAT's real tough. Mr. Marshall makes $2.198 million, and he acts like this. What a whiner.
There are several sides to the issue; he feels like he's worth more than he's making. The average joe.. like me, thinks he's a selfish baby, that should be happy he has the skills to play a game that I can only control on a video game system. He has the skills and size to be an elite athlete; I have the skills to do.. well, basically nothing really. At most, in the profession I will be entering I'll make like $50,000 a year after 30 years. I love athletics, I love football, I love basketball, and I would love to be able to play them at that level, but I can't and I accept that. What I cannot accept, however, is a multimillionaire not doing his job because he wants to get paid more. That ticks me off.
To make matters worse, there are rumors that the Broncos are WILLING to talk extension with him. So, the Broncos offered in the pre-season, Marshall rejected. Then Marshall acted like a 5 year old boy that just got hit in the head with a snowball. Now, the Broncos might offer that extension again? Really? It's not like Marshall's meltdown was the first one he's had, the guy has lived around trouble his whole life so far. He hasn't shown the maturity or the ability to remove himself from those situations; he publically humiliated the franchise and their underpaid workers (equipment managers) to prove what? That he's still not mature? If the Broncos extend that contract they will have set a terrible precident for their chemistry and their franchise. I would be furious if I was a Broncos fan and this was coming up; I would not and do not deal with this.
I have no problem with people wanting to make more money; the people that struggle to pay for a house when others are getting handouts. The people that pay for their own insurance, their own tuition, their own car, their own food, their own housing while others do nothing. I have a problem with those that do nothing and those that make millions and whine for more. I am sorry Mr. Marshall, but if this injury were you... I don't think I would mind.
STRAIGHT BUTTER BABY!
