Gates to Bosa "Man Up" I have been there

[Mister Hoarse]

Did Eddie Debartolo care about when he paid bonus money? NO! Now he's in the Hall of Fame!

He didn't care about cheating the salary cap either.

Gates should keep his nose out of contracts that arent his own. He caused some heartache of his own with his contract.

Im bummed Bosa isnt with the team but business is business. Id be a hypocrite to say he shouldnt negotiate what he believes he's worth.

Fault is always with the Chargers organization. Rotten to the core.

It is. But thats beside the point. Gates should stay out of other people's business

Gates just feels bad about costing us that game in 2005.

Gates didn't go out of his way to volunteer his opinion. He got questioned about his opinion by a bunch of reporters at training camp.

Isn't the standard answer already known? Business is business, and we'll see Bosa when he gets here - or something like that.

you can also add that in other years where there were rookie holdouts, the teammates (especially the leaders) were a lot more welcoming. You never heard Seau tell LT or Jammer, hey you need to man up and fucking sign already rookie.

I think Junior's line was, once the rookies are in they'll get picked on like any other new rookies, but once their on the team they're part of the family/team now.

It's not just Bosa's bussiness. He is holding out for what mounts to league minimum. If he gets cut before the end of the deal, that is what the offset amounts to. Either that or he is holding out for whatever the interest on the bonus being paid now is. Either way, it's small potatoes in the grand scheme of things.

Every day he holds out, the chances of him being a bust go up and up and up. You never get the missed time back. They won't rewind and he falls further and further behind.

And he gets paid the same and the Bolts lose production. So who loses the war?
