    But we aren't talking about sales. We're talking about championships, notoriety and endorsements which can bring Cobb more money than being invisible in Oakland.

    thats what a few of us have been talking about the last few pages

    championships mean something to us the fans. to players football is a job/business. and thats not gonna change until super bowl winners start getting massive bonuses

    suh is about to become the highest paid defensive player of all time, how much has he won? only a handful of guys get the big endorsements, most will not. and for most it doesn't matter if they win a super bowl or not. being a "winner" has almost no effect on income level

    hell look at jay cutler

    Unfortunately, when discussing NFL players, too often notoriety is the correct term.
