"The Rosenhaus Effect"
to blame for Boldin

Excerpts:
Usually it takes more than one day of
training camp for the optimism of
Cardinals fans to begin to wane. On
Thursday though, the typical July "this
will be the Cardinals year" turned to
the October "here we go again" in a
matter of minutes.
Before the team had even put on the
pads, full contact drills began when
Anquan Boldin dropped the bombshell
that he is done with the Cardinals and
that he no longer plans to negotiate an
extension. Boldin cited the fact that
the general manager Rod Graves and
the Cardinals promised him a new con-
tract prior to the season but failed to
deliver on their promise as the reason
for his displeasure.
....
Let me ask you a question.what do
Anquan Boldin, Marion Barber, Lance
Briggs, Plaxico Burress, Darnell Dock-
ett, Jevon Kearse, Chad Johnson, Willis
McGahee, Santana Moss, Terrell Owens,
Jeremy Shockey and Kellen Winslow Jr
have in common?
If you answered that they all have publicly
voiced displeasure with their teams and
contracts you'd be right. They share one
more common thread as well, Drew Rosen-
haus.
The Rosenhaus Effect is what is truly to
blame when it comes to the predicament
the Cardinals find themselves in.
The Rosenhaus effect is the pattern of
hostile negotiation tactics and media
attention that his clients tend to rely on
to get renegotiated deals. ...
Who would want a disgruntled 30 year
old wide receiver with Rosenhaus for
an agent? (Oh yeah, the Dallas Cowboys).
There is a positive from the situation.
Thanks to The Rosenhaus Effect the
Cardinals have reached a new record
at cru****ng fans hopes. At least it will
save me some agony on Sundays.
