He would make a dope Agent after his career. His players will be walking away with full guaranteed contracts!

On top of him making all the right moves he is the fukking best at the CB position. Props to him for coming and helping us get that Ring last season :blessed:

Need more athletes like him. :salute:
Well at the end of the day the main advantage Revis has is he's the best player at his position, which is a position of high importance as well. There's not many players that could pull off what he pulls off. If Cromartie or someone like that was trying to do this teams would just tell him to kick rocks.

I'm surprised the other 31 owners haven't had Revis murked yet. He's bad for business from the owners standpoint

not only is this dude shrewd as hell with the negotiations, it appears he's very content to live within his means. a lot of these athletes could learn something from him when one of the highest paid players on the team moves and lives like an ordinary person.

dude was rockin that mini cooper......:yeshrug:

:obama:

even if cromartie was as good as revis, he couldn't pull off those kinda negotiations cuz EVERYONE knows cromartie out here with 10 kids and mouths to feed and is generally thirsty to get a deal done as fast as possible.

you think cromartie has the stones to hold out???? after like a week, he's already gonna be having late payments on his child support checks :mjlol:

:russ: That nikka ain't no savy negotiator, he just a great player and one of the top at his position. He wouldn't be able to get away with half of the shyt he does if he wasn't so great :manny:

Nothing but respect for Revis. Used Beli and Kraft just to get his ring and went back to the team he loves. :salute:
They gotta ring out of him for cheap and the Jets are paying to likely never replicate those results.

I have met Revis a couple times, hes probably one of the nicest people you will ever meet no lie.

I think the main missing point up in that story is he has the skills to back up being greedy, none of his negotiation tactics would work if he sucked

Props to Revis, it takes alot of balls to take such risk in a highly injury prone sport
I wish we could view all the posters who were shyting on Revis and calling him crazy for betting on himself, cause I think they are now praising him
