Little Tidbit About the Seymour Mess
Behind the scenes in all of this,is the agent,Eugene Parker .The Patriots avoid his draft choices,if possible,not because he's a tough negotiator,but because he's a swarmy jerk and the holdout prince.
I'm sure he fu-kd up the the talks on extending Seymour..whispering in his ear...."We got them over a barrel,
Julius Peppers,Richard,Julius Peppers".
I think a couple of years back,Colonel Parker was suspended by the PA for poaching clients,while being unregistered.
BB is loathed to deal with him and I think his patience wore thin,quite quickly.
Now,Richard is blaming all on the colonel and I smell a lawsuit coming.
IMO,this is the back-story of the Seymour trade.

What's the chances Seymour just ends up back where he started, with the Patriots?
Slim to none. Goodell may have to step in. It is NOT in the interest of the NFL to let players negate trades because they don't like them.

Sometimes they are not always at the No. 1 position, but I don’t think you pass up good football players to get the guys who aren’t as good just because they’re at a position that somebody feels you need.”

zero...it's not gonna happen.The league would be in chaos if they voided a trade......remember Jake Plummer?.......refused the trade,retired and had to pay back 6MILLION! in signing bonus.
This is what Seymour is lookin at.....losing a yrs salary and paying back 5m plus in bonus money.The NFL will not intervene...Done Deal.
Behind the scenes in all of this,is the agent,Eric Parker.The Patriots avoid his draft choices,if possible,not because he's a tough negotiator,but because he's a swarmy jerk and the holdout prince.

First, it is Eugene Parker, not Eric.
Second, it was Carl Poston who was suspend and it is he and his brother who Belichick avoids.
Parker and his partner Roosevelt Barnes have represented several Patriots under Belichick.
Parker could be behind the problems with this whole situation, but you got some of the facts wrong.

I'd say to quote BB, "less than zero."
I just couldn't ever in my wildest dreams imagine Belichick welcoming him back to play here. Like mg said, if it came down to it, maybe he'd go somewhere else--but there's no way (IMHO) that he'd end up back here.
