Same song, different verse. To paraphrase the old joke...how do you know Pierce is saying something stupid...his lips are moving
They discussed this a little during halftime of last nights game and one of the commentators basically said the same thing I have been saying every time Pierce starts crying...if you don't like the situation you don't sign a max level contract. Become a free agent and go where you want. Pierce chose to take the money so as far as I am concerned he forfieted any right to ***** and moan about things. He should be a man and just shut up and fulfill his contract. He is not entitled to a championship, an all-start berth, commercials and promos, or anything else except a paycheck. The rest of that stuff he has to earn. If he doesn't feel like he can do it with the C's he should have turned down the extension and left town. Other players have decided that they wanted to win more than they wanted the money and taken less than they might could have in order to go to a team where they felt like they had a better chance of winning. It's all about priorities. Pierce wants to have his cake and eat it too and that's not how it works in the real world.
