Besides being a jerk Rosenhaus has the added dimension of incompetence.

 

Reporter" Besides getting him kicked off the team, what have you done for T.O.?"

 

Rosenhaus "Next Question"

If I'm a professional athlete in either sport they would be my agent.

 

These guys are good at what they do, that is why they take all the heat and the player gets all the love. Unless, the player is a moron like Owens.

 

No one was mad at Maddux when he took his time, but everyone was mad at Boras. Maddux makes the decisions Boras takes the heat. And both get rich, rich, rich.

Cedric Benson's agent, Eugene Parker. I hate these agents telling draftees to hold out for the whole preseason if need be. It hurts the player's career and it hurts his team.

Agreed. Where would the Chargers be right now if Phil Rivers hadn't held out? After all, it was pretty much Rivers's job if he had just shown up.

Good at his job? the guy who didn't file owens for free agency on time?

I think that was the agent Owens had before he hired Rosenhaus.

Nobody has mentioned the Poston brothers: they're a bunch of jerks.

 

I do remember a NFL draft a few years ago and someone from ESPN was interviewing a GM. They asked why they passed on a player and took another. The GM looked right into the camera and said "I'll do everything I can not to draft a player represented by Drew Rosenhaus."

Boras screws over teams, but gets his players very nice contracts.

 

Rosenhaus screws over teams and his players.

 

Rosenhaus wins easily.

I have heard of several instances where teams won't deal with Drew. However Drew denies all of that so who knows what is true.

Drew Rosenhaus allegedly saved a boy's life with CPR this past summer, so I'm voting against Boras.

 

I can respect Rosenhaus fighting for more money for his players because NFL contracts are not guaranteed.

There is no allegedly about it. Didn't you read his 1000 interviews talking about how great he was for it?

The fact that he said it drew my use of "allegedly." :lol:
