If it wasn't about $$, Aso would have signed already. If the Jets offered $11.5-12 million, plus the chance to win a championship and be part of the best corner tandem of all-time, and he's still unsure.....it's a cash grab. No idea if they can, but at this point, I'd rather see the Jets take a shot at Cro/Edwards rather than MAYBE getting Aso. It's gonna blow if, for example Cro signs elsewhere while we are waiting, then Aso goes to Houston. Ahh, who knows. Gotta figure Tanny knows something we don't. The waiting sucks though.
If he only wanted big money, he would've agreed to the Texans already. He wants to sign with us, he's just trying to get as much as he can from us. He knows he'll get less, but he's going to bleed us for sure. If he waits through the weekend to sign, that would be strange I think. He's going to want to get into the system as soon as possible.
Your right I am just getting a little bitter. As usual when someone preaches/hints at that it isn't about the money for them it generally is all about the money. What is sad and a little ironic is given the state of this economy and it's uncertainty for the foreseeable future I can't say that I wouldn't be doing exactly what Nnamdi is doing right now. The way things are in the country and generally the world at large right now the really is no such thing as too much money.
you ever think hes using us to drive the price up on houston to something astronomical? well thats alot of money but money isnt that important im prolly going to NY ummmm Nnamdi? how about 17 mil a year (some ridiculous guaranteed number) oh ok, "hey revis, I lied, i want more money. then again you know what thats like right?"
You dont think the Texans have upped their offer a few times because we are being............ selfish. I said it!
That's what I think. I think he wants it to be the Jets, but he is trying to get as much as possible from them.
Anyone else think he's waiting until after Friday so that he can meet with the teams first before making a decision?
Schefter says that Aso is ready to make his decision in the next 48hrs.... Lets hope he doesnt break our hearts... It does look very good for us tho!!! And lets not forget that Aso would probably make back all the money he has to sacrifice in endorsements if he comes to NY... Toyota lets get Aso in some commercials with Sanchez lol...
this is the ONLY ONLY ONLY thing playing in our favor at this point. cause as of now, i think hes trying to see exactly how ridiculous the texans can make their offer
Well if the post below yours is an indication, and that he's ready to make his decision in the next 48 hours, then yeah he probably is going to meet with the teams. Waiting 2 more days for his decision will suck for sure.. But on the bright side, how many guys have met with Rex and told him they would rather play somewhere else?
wtf....there wasn't more than 50 people in the forum this time last week....did everybody suddenly remember their TGG passwords? Count me in for the Nnamdi sweepstakes....let's hope he takes less to sign with us.
