PTI just talked about how Klinsmann said that sometimes Americans pay their athletes for what they have done and not for they are going to be able to do. This was in reference to Kobe's extension after his Achilles issue. Wilson proceeded to bash him and tell him to get out of America. Wilbon needs to realize Klinsmanns soccer pedigree and resume before he starts running his mouth. The American way has not been working. The German way usually does. Klinsmann is exactly what we needed. End of my rant. Sorry.

he's exactly right. Jeter, Kobe, Pujols, Arod, Sanchez and now Kaepernick.

And he was right to cut Donovan.

Wilbon will rant about racism to anyone who will listen but has the audacity to tell a German turned American citizen that he should leave the US.

Kaepernick doesn't really fit; he's getting paid for what they think he'll do more so than what he's done.

Kobe puts people in the seats - even if he doesn't produce like 10 years ago. When he gives a soundbite, people listen. When he endorses something, people buy it. On the other hand, it was stupid for the Broncos to give Manning all that cash after his neck problem.**

Wilbon has made his career on half-baked, confrontational arguments.
