Not at all. I'm just saying, the guy got repeated tryouts. He was not shunned the way people act like he was.
It really helps your cause when you are great, and you gotta be realistic about consequences (and narratives) when you aren't because people will find every reason to tear down even those that are great.
Nike's selling shoes off that. That's not commercially exploitative?
He never got any try out's. That's the whole basis of his grievance. The Bronco's offered to trade for him before he was cut, but he'd take a $4million paycut so he declined. After he was cut there were no try outs or offers.
