IndyNorm, the one thing you forgot to mention on this precedent is the guy doing it is your best player on offense (soon to be consensus second best), so that precedent has already been set decades ago. From Babe Ruth to Emmit Smith great players jobs have always been to push the envelope in any way possible to increase wages for everyone in their sport. If AR keeps getting better you can bet your ass he would do the exact same kind of thing if the Colts wanted to play hard ball (they of course would not do that with a QB-life ain't fair just like we all know).
