Worilds collide ... Steeler retires

So, Vag.....what is the story behind the Worilds retirement?
So, Vag.....what is the story behind the Worilds retirement?
No story, he just retired. He wanted a pretty substantial contract basically a million per sack is what one team rep said and no one wanted to give it to him so he retired. I'm guessing he felt risking his health was only worth so much and when he didn't get it. He decided to retire. I won't be shocked if he comes out of retirement. Either way there really is no other explanation.

Well, it seems like he didn't even want to field offers....so how did he know no one wanted to give it to him? (not that any would)
He was foolish for asking that much, but, I mean, how much money does he think he will make being an assistant coach for a High School team?

Our guard Ramon foster said he doesn't care about leaving money on the table but he was only going to continue playing for a certain amount. The New York Giants and the Eagles were both interested and said he wanted too much. The steelers obviously felt the same or they would have offered him a contract.

In other words, he's a fucking dumbass? Either that or he thinks that by "holding out" someone will be desperate enough to meet his price?
While I think he was a decent player, he was not all that and a bag of chips. He was at best the third best LB for the Steelers, fair to say? Or, maybe, the new DC there just doesn't see him fitting his system?
Sorry, but I still have the feeling that the whole "retirement" thing is a ploy.

I agree that he was just a decent player but weird stuff has been happening this off season. Patrick Willis retired, Borland who has one season under his belt and a strong one at that retired because he fears a brain injury. Worilds could have improved upon his resume if he stuck around. He wasn't rushed a lot last season and really he played on the transition tag because of one productive season. Personally I'm pretty indifferent on the guy. I'd have been okay if we resigned him to a fair contract but also okay if he was let go. I really couldn't care less that he retired and because of those sentiments I agree 100% with you. Its a weird situation for a guy that was just solid, not great or amazing..not bad. Just solid. I won't be shocked if he comes out of retirement and if he didn't play on the transition tag at almost 10m I bet he wouldn't have but he was able to make SOME money. Hell more than several people make in a lifetime. If he's smart he can make that work for a long, long time.In other words, he's a fucking dumbass?
