Rookie middle linebacker Odell Thurman continues to receive special attention and intense coaching from [Marvin] Lewis. Lewis said he would like to take the same approach with [David] Pollack.
"I didn’t think [Pollack] would hold out this long," Lewis said. "I think we have fought very hard to eliminate some of these kinds of actions, and it is a shame that it has occurred.
"We have guys who have chosen to be here, which has eliminated selfishness that occurs. If a dollar here, a dollar there is what it comes down to, these players are on the wrong football team.
"And this football team will never be guided by one player. We will not be compromised by one player. We have fought very hard over the last three years to establish that, and the players believe in it. It is what wins in this league."
Lewis said the club has given a great deal of ground to Pollack and his agents.
"At some point, a player must make a decision - enough is enough - and it’s time to play football."
Phew. Don't hold back, Marv, tell us how ya feel! Yike!
