at 7 years 31 million with 11 million gaurrenteed, it makes it a little easier to say good bye to El. I would have loved to see him stay, but if thats the money he wanted then I have no problem with the Steelers letting him walk.
This will be the biggest mistake of his career, and he'll realize that eventually. Unless of course he's all about the money in which case he'll be very happy. Personally, I'd rather have millions of adoring fans than a few more million dollars. Have fun doing nothing but running routes and catching balls. Have fun no longer being loved by Steeler Nation, and have fun never winning another Super Bowl.
I hope El will be happy in Washington. You went from being an Icon, to a #3 WR ... hope you're happy with you're decision.
Yeah I'll put down the bitter sandwhich now.
