I have zero sympathy for some kid who is going to make 14 million dollars over the next few years if he stays healthy. It is obscene to bitch about that kind of money when so many have next to nothing. Again fight for as much as you can, we do live in a capitalistic country, but stop whining like you are being insulted because you are underpaid. Get some perspective on life.

To me fair means, making an offer that is based on market value and added or subtracted intangibles. Not some bullshit low ball offer like a used car salesman! An offer that JT might reject but not be offended by...anyway, if the Colts have no intention of offering him an extension, regardless of how well he plays this season, then it doesn't even matter....and that is what I think JT believes is going to happen and he is trying to get out ahead of it!
