The rams offered him a 3yr $9m dollar contract for him to stay with us. That's 3 million a season, just in case your mathematically challenged. As for holding it against him, if i do or not. That's my choice. I for one, am for building the team through the draft while signing few but quality FA's. So far that's what the Ram's direction is headed with Bill Devaney. That wouldn't be so possible if we overpaid a guy that age with decreased production. We NEED to get younger. There is no ands ifs or buts about it.Don't even compare it to Holt. He's 31 and still has some good years in him and Bennett was unfortunate for being hurt last year. Let the guy actually have a year at starter under his belt before you condemn him. Everyone has the right to their opinion, i'm not questioning that. But before you call someone out. THINK a bit more about the situation. You sat there and said that the Ram's messed up their cap situation in the first place, and now that we are trying to fix it, you want them to stay in a hole?.......That's it for now, bottom line, they tried with a more then generous contract offer. He chose not to stay. That's his fault. And again, I never once questioned his quality or such so don't try to say that i'm undermining the player he really is because he is a 1st ballot HOF. No doubt about it.

You can't be serious. Wow, you are so far off I don't know what to tell you. First you present your opinion as a fact. Then you say because the whiners are a rival Bruce shouldn't sign there. That makes no sense whatsoever. You can't seem to grasp the concept that there are two sides to the Bruce discussion that are
both valid.
Now you don't even have the information right about what the Rams offered Bruce. They didn't offer Bruce a three year deal for 9 mil. They offered him a 1 year deal for 3 mil. Know the facts before you post.
If Bruce turned down a 3 year 9 mil deal to go to the whiners we wouldn't even be having this discussion because I would have said good bye to Bruce that day.
Then you take a post by cfh128 who said "stop dragging Bruce through the mud" and try and pin it on me when I never said anything like that. I do agree with cfh128, but I never said anything to you. So you go address cfh128 about undermining Bruce etc. Reading is fundamental.
I never said anything about whether you hold it against him or not for signing with the whiners. I said
I don't hold it against him. I also never said I had anything against Bennett, so I haven't condemned him. There you go assuming again. Go back and re-read it.
So here is my advice. Read and then re-read posts and let them sink in. Learn the difference between an opinion and a fact. Know the facts before you post, and think about what you are going to say before you hit Submit Reply.
Since you said you won't discuss this any longer I won't be expecting a reply.
