"Feelings have been hurt between Warner and the Cards" said Warner's agent

[gohard83]

"Warner's agent, Mark Bartelstein, said he is not trying to gain leverage with the Cardinals by having his client visit the division-rival 49ers.
"People assume things are being done to create leverage and that's not true," Bartelstein said. "Anyone who knows Kurt Warner knows that's not the moral plane he operates under. He would never do something to create leverage."
However, Bartelstein said "some feelings have been hurt," with Warner in his relationship with the Cardinals."

"All of a sudden, people pursue you and it's nice to be wanted," the agent said. "You hear some things that are intriguing. Some things have developed in the last few days that are intriguing. He really didn't want to go through free agency. We thought something would be done by now (in Arizona). It's disappointing."

Please, Kurt... don't leave the Bay area without a contract... Thank you for last year.

Let the Leinart era begin...

Agents, arrrrgggg

 

[Jetstream Green]

Go screw yourself agent, talk about your client but never use the phrase "You" that loosely as if you are that closely tied to Warner 'being wanted'. And the Cardinals want Warner but realize there are also over 50 other players on the team...a lot with a future over two more years

Wait a minute, didn't the Cards give Warner a million dollar bonus after the 2007 season for a QB rating even though he did not earn it.

It takes two to get a deal done, and both sides had 2 now going on 3 weeks to get it done. Just as much this idiots fault as the Cardinals.

i still hope kurt doesn't leave; it will hurt the cards if he does.

I thought we did NOT give him that bonus??

 

[RugbyMuffin]

We couldn't. It was against the rules of the league.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

I change my mind. I don't even want him at 8M per year. Go away Kurt.

Good riddence Kurt!

 

[D-Dogg]

Oh give me a freaking break.

Sign the damn deal already! Or retire. Or go to SF.

Just let us know what your shattered feelings decide to do, ASAP, so we can move forward accordingly. Matt needs to know if he should be reading the playbook now or jumping in a hot tub with Fez and some chicks. Decisions for everyone!

He was saying after the 2007 season, not last year when it was written in the contract. League rules prohibit any bonus money distributed if the stat clause was not hit.

After the 2007 season the Cards gave him a bonus that wasn't written in the contract.

same lets use the money elsewhere and see what leinart can do
