Gurley phoned it in most of last year, so he should know how to make a call.

(I know...harsh and revisionist...but the guy is starting to annoy me with his BS.)

Bob Carl has a legit point. Still, if you've got that much money what's a couple of days, a week or two? Is anything really functioning properly under the present conditions? Maybe a legit bitch by TG, maybe just sour grapes? Like somebody said, 'he'll get his money'.

Sadly, regarding Gurley's contract, the Rams painted themselves into a corner.

The Rams need to honor the contract they made in a timely fashion, and convince the fans that they won't make serious major salary cap space mistakes as they did with Gurley.

Gonna be late on your payment? Pick up a damn phone.


Attempting to handle sensitive business like this over social media has nothing to do with anybody but the person initiating it.

I don’t care who your business people are or that the Rams might be late.

Not the way you handle this under any circumstances.

It’s tone deaf and classless.

I don't know if anyone is arguing that the Rams don't owe Gurley money. But I'm willing to wager that we don't have all the details about that transaction, how late it is, who called or didn't call. If someone in this thread knows better, let's hear it. But the point I'm making is that a multi-millionaire football player whining in public about money is pretty distasteful and quite infantile.

Nah, that’s a cop out.

You think this is the first time a player has been looking for a check?
