Good for Ty...

Sometimes, being a responsible adult will create some conflict with football objectives. Can't fault him for finishing up his degree, and he's a veteran who knows how to prepare himself for training camp.

Agreed. Personally, I don't think the NFL does enough to get players ready for life after football; for all you might say about the Patriots, that's one thing they really do work hard on (and, in fact, they have gotten recognition from the league on this issue).

When he successfully completes his Degree the Pats should still honor his bonus.

No, he's making "his" choices. He reasonably could have waited until after his playing career and gone to finish his degree, instead he checked his bank balance and has decided doing it now works better for his family and the extra cash doesn't matter. I understand what you're trying to say in terms of respecting Warren for making a smart choice, but it sets a precedent for other players who will expect to be 'paid' to finish an education most of them received for free in return for playing football. The proper way for NE to handle this is to accept Ty's decision, hold him to his conditioning requirements, and as long as he meets those requirements, not penalize him for his decision beyond the cash he already elected to lose.
