Dolphins QB Culpepper escorted off field by security

Escorting him off the field is pretty classless.

You have to think of it as a corporation. When you fire a player from a large corporation, you don't go and allow him towork at his desk for 10 days. Corporations have learned that if you do that, people want to take revenge. They do things that could cause the company money. So its very common that when a corporation fires and employee, they have a security officer escort them to their desk to remove all their belongings, and escort them out right THEN..on the spot.

This isn't like other NFL teams that have, in a sense, fired Culpepper. They don't want him to cause problems on the field, whether that be word of mouth, spreading rumor, or anything else. Could it be handled differently? Probably. Maybe. But if they feel his presence on the practice field is a distraction, and could cause problems with the moral or concentration of the team, how do you have him leave? Do you put that on the HC?? Thats not the HC's job to hire/fire/ and remove people from the practice field. This way you take all the pressure off the coaching staff from having to step in and be the bad guys, while keeping it 'business.'

Well, that's sure not how the chefs handled THEIR QB situation, rav......


I'd say BOTH teams were pretty 'unprofessional' about their personnel moves.....


...to say the least.

Shut up.......

I think the best thing for Culpepper to do is bite the bullet, and work with the Dolphins to work out a trade that will benefit both the Dolphins and Culpepper. As he could stand to lose more money by being cut this late in the offseason than he would by restructuring for a team willing to trade for him. But that's if there is a team willing to trade for him.

We just don't know the circumstances involving Culpepper and the teams security, it could have been a number of things that could've happened....Including a temper tantrum from Culpepper himself.

But that's just it, we don't know. It could also mean absolutely nothing.......

Oh, I don't know, stnzed.....


...was some of his money guaranteed? If so, then he prolly couldn't care less if he gets cut.

I'm sure there's a team out there (chicago) that is in the need for a vet qb (chicago) to take over if their starting qb shoudl get hurt, or suck (chicago).

Hmmmmm somethings telling me he should go to Chicago.

Poor guy... I would have had him escorted myself. Never liked him,McNabb or Steve Air McNair. No consistency at their position.

no i think he comes out better if they release him.......if he renegociates the contract stays with him for the term....if he gets released all money due him comes into plaY since essentionaly he has a contract and is being fired, the contract becomes due, as well as he can then sign a new contract of his likeing
