I agree. No way they should be forced to talk to anyone. This is still the USA.

It's part of their job to talk to the media.  That's why they are paid the BIG bucks. No sport gets the media coverage that the NFL gets.  That's why they get the Big bucks.  In refusing to talk they are cutting their own throats. It's a free country, if they don't like it quit the NFL.

I wanna know why, after he told everyone what he was going to say, that there were 29 idiots that asked him questions?

He fulfilled his obligation, he showed up, leave him the hell alone.

They get paid the big bucks to play football and win games. Who cares what they have to say anyway? These guys are not politicians, though most people don't care what they say either.

The NFL cares.  That is why it is part of their contract. Their revenue depends on the hype, the build up.  That is why it is a requirement. Many people care judging by the numbers who watch sports reports and read the many articles in the paper, magazines and on the internet.  If you are a pro athlete you should know that.  Wait it is true that many are stupid mo-fo's just like politicians. Also, keep in mind that many pro players make millions in endorsements. Exposing themselves to the media increases the chances of getting lucrative endorsements.  If you area dumb mo-fo you are right that nobody cares what you have to say so go crawl in a hole and die broke and homeless. As you try to sleep on the street on a cold winter's night, remember the opportunites you blew off.

They get paid the big bucks because of the media coverage.  If football wasn't covered the way it is in the media and tv networks didn't pay billions a year to show it, they wouldn't be making all that money.

Who uses that line in the next paddock interview at the Big M - Ron Pierce or Joe Bongiorno?

 thumbsup Wow I agree with Gary  shootme As long as he does his job on the field they have plenty of

other media stories to go after, wife beating, dog fighting, DUI's, dope heads and the list goes on and on,

plus there are plenty of players who love talking to the media, if I were his coach or the team owner and

the guy performed I'd stand behind him 100%.
