This is a no frills forum designed for entertaining discussion about our beloved Vikings. Many of us have been discussing Vikings football together for years/decades, resulting in a camaraderie which we strive to preserve.
to piss away all that money and have to resort to this is a shame and sad.
Agreed. It really is sad. Unfortunately we’re going to continue seeing desperate attempts by AD to make money. Never should have happened if he didn’t surround himself with yes men his whole NFL career.
What if Bell had never held out and just signed the extension Pittsburg offered. Have to imagine he’d be in a fairly different place right now.
I don’t think he lost too much money contract wise in the grand scheme of things. He was offered 5/$70 million from Pittsburgh included $30 guaranteed the first 2 seasons. He got $28 million from the Jets before he was cut. $45 million gross in his NFL career, which is also sad that he’s doing this desperate display for money.
Longevity wise for his career, maybe he lasts longer than 3 years in Pittsburgh before his career ends accepting the original extension. Overall he didn’t lose much guaranteed money holding out for an entire season. Still, if he was smart with money he wouldn’t be boxing today after netting $10+ million conservatively in his NFL career.

And popped out kids all over the country. In hindsight he probably should have put a helmet on that soldier before he sent him to battle.
BTW: I sure hope he can box better than he can hit a softball because that was down right embarassing.
