I don't know about Dunta at all anymore. His writing on his shoes for the game yesterday , something like - pay me Rick- and being quoted saying something like we're all here for one thing, to get paid. Doesn't sound like a guy with the right attitude of winning or someone who wants to be on this team to me. of course it was right after a very disappointing loss. maybe Dunta will explain himself to the team and us soon.

Poor judgement on his part. I'd like 500K+ for a days work. After yesterday I am trying not to get overly sensitive on anything Texans. I am actually in a self imposed media boycott. No sports talk radio (except for playback from SEC guy), no chron.com, no halftime shows, no blogs. I'll come here and piss and moan with my online support group. Dream of something good happening next Sunday.

I saw that clip, it ticked me off and that's all I will say.

I dont have a problem with Dunta. The guy just speaks the truth. At the end of the day all players are playing to get paid and support their families. Supporting their families comes first. Winning playoff games and Super Bowls is something extra that a lucky few get to experience. Everybody plays to get paid. And they play better to get paid even more when they have added incentives in their contracts. The only disagreement I have with Dunta is that he wants Asomugha type of money and that aint gonna happen. Not with the Texans and not with any other team.

This is almost true. I'd say most of them are in it for the paycheck. But it's not every player.

And I don't knock Dunta for playing for the check. It's why 90% of people go to work.
