    $50 mil for this joke?
    The guy only makes 4 million a year, and after next year's season no one would sign him anyways, he isn't good.
    He is worth maybe $10 mil

    I saw the video. He was not cooperating at all, but was trying to make it look like he wasn't doing anything wrong, soccer player style.

    F him. I hope he loses and has to eat a ton of lawyer fees. His timing is off. The fallout from the whole cop violence thing has run its course, and now people are finally thinking more objectively again. 6 months ago he would have had a better shot.

    Cops are uneducated, that's why they become cops. The fact they're horrible dumb people will never run it's course and if you have money to fight against the corrupt losers, you'll get paid off. I'd bet any amount of money he gets paid in a settlement.

    what does his have anything to do with him filing a lawsuit against the NYPD? In pretty sure the judge isn't gonna base his decision on whether a team is gonna sign him again

    Base his decision on if he thinks they city is guilty or not, no.
    Base his decision on the amount he receives if the city is found guilty, yes for the amount of money he makes a year.

    The police are being encouraged to attack people, they are trained on how to escalate situations,
    They are also being encouraged to just be crazy and aggressive with people, then the govt pretends it doesn't exist.
    Its a big game, and will continue because people are apathetic.
    Pay this man his money.

    Doesn't work that way. If he was a waiter, messing up his hands or legs at all would put him out for awhile too. It's no different. Lively hood is lively hood.

    Actions have consequences. People got a pass there for awhile, but we're back to reason again.
