Cam Deserved Better

Every time I see someone talk about what an NFL player deserves, I remember the line in Unforgiven.

The NFL is the last place where you should expect anyone to get a Hollywood ending.

In the league, happy endings are the exception, not the norm.

Its not even about deserving it. It just common decency. How would you feel if you got hurt on the job and was promised it back once you got better when they had no plans to give you that job back when you got better and they were already looking for your replacement? Then during the prime window where everyone is spending big money to hire unemployed people is missed because you were under the assumption that you were coming back.

I have been saying this for two years now---Rivera KNEW Cam was hurt and manipulated him.  To add insult to injury, the prick traded for Allen when both were available...

When Rivera put the second or third string QB in the game to run a hail mary--he knew Cam was injured before hand.   I wonder how often RR got involved with the medicals--for example, Daryl Williams. Recurring injuries--

I tore my rotator cuff in college---that surgery is intense (was then, anyway).  I injured the shoulder during the first game (Elon--those bastards).  I played the rest of the season.  I could not even windmill my arm or do a pushup. 

Rivera didn't manipulate Cam to do anything. Cam wanted to play because he is a warrior and he is not going to let his team down. He is the type to push thru so don't try to blame Rivera for Cam's decision to play. Its not like Cam said he didn't want to play and Rivera tricked him into playing. This is the NFL a majority of players play thru their injuries.
