    Not many seem to be buying Bennett's story.

    Martellus Bennett’s shoulder injury is related to a broken collar bone suffered by another player, a first in modern day medicine. This will be studied for years

    Sympathetic injuries have been inflicted since the dawn of man. That's why they burned the witches in NE. Wait a second, who else is in New England and weighs the same as a duck?

    Very small rocks!
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Bennett had his agent tell teams he was going to have surgery and retire. Somehow, he made it through to New England's spot on the waiver wire.

    Les Bowen @LesBowen
    And he got to the Pats in the waiver order because he had his agent tell other teams he was retiring. He and/or the agent should face sanctions.

    Lots of great minds working in this thread

    Boomer said this this morning:
    “So while it's smart by New England to pick up Martellus, I personally find it to be reprehensible that he acted this way towards the Green Bay Packers and now has found himself on a better team and a better situation. And it seems very selfish to me."

    The dumbest thing the Packers did was to sign this guy, the smartest thing the team did was cut him.
    Good riddance Marty.

    Bennett is a real piece of shit. It baffles me on how anyone could take his side in this whole ordeal.

    Who is taking his side? If it's true that his agent was spinning the surgery and retirement line to the rest of the teams then the agent should be barred for a year.

    I'm not so much concerned someone 'taking his side' but whether this kind of crap is going to be allowed.

    Packers will get some of the money back, but I don't think the NFL will step in and do something to either the Patriots or the mercenary.

    Give the Packers the Pats' fourth round pick this year!

    Only thing to do is get hot and beat them in the super bowl...that would be the richest payback ever.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    Ha ha. You are thinking in the old ways. You need to get up to speed. That Bennett will still be a member of the Patriots by Super Bowl time is not a certainty. If NE should lose in the AFC championship game, it's likely Bennett 'mistakenly' travels home with the other team.

    I am in favor of any player using the available rules to get what they want in terms of employment and compensation.

    That Bennett pulled this particular stunt just reveals his priorities, which are not all that surprising given his history of short stays on a lot of teams. Even Romo couldn't work up much nice to say about Bennett when he recalled they used to be on the same team.

    This is why FA is fools gold.

    Non-sequitur. This is why Bennett was fools gold.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.
