Felger talked to Kessler. Kessler said, whether the grievances are combined or taken separately, that the earliest both grievances will be ruled on is Thursday Sept 14. Kessler also said that even if Deion loses both rulings, Deion and Chayut will then sue the Pats to recoup the difference in salary between his current one and the one the Jets were willing to offer. In short, IMO it appears Chayut is losing his mind. Very amusing.

They will looked like they lost there minds!!!!!!!

1) Uhh, I could be mistaken, but I don't believe that Deion has a current salary with the Patriots. He's on strike.

2) If he sues an NFL team that holds a valid contract, he's probably kissing his career good bye. There are only 32 potential employers, none of whom would be happy with a contracted player suing their team.

I just thought of this.

If they sue, Branch will be essentially suing for the difference between 2 seperate contracts.

One contract will be a contract he never signed, and the other will be a contract he didn't honor!

Hilarious!

I'm surprised he's not suing the Pats for the monies he will lose from future clients who won't touch him with a ten foot pole after this fiasco. Sounds like the Branch camp already knows this grievance is a fool's errand.

This is getting ridiculous, DB has sunk very low in my eyes, needs to get rid of this Chayut guy...who is fighting for his status as an agent in the NFL... anyone who is looking for an agent will shy away from this guy.

Nah. One thing we've learned from the ongoing saga of Terrell Owens is that no matter how big of a jerk you are, there's always some team willing to come up and throw money at talent.

Are they both trying to get themselves blacklisted from the NFL? What a marriage of idiocy. If I am a Chayut client I am calling Chayut and telling him he is fired and announcing a new agent Friday morning!

No, a mind is a precious thing to lose.
Even this guy's.

It may give rise to some kind of claim for recompense, though, under the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Branch is looking worse and worse.. does anyone think that these threats of law suits are going to bring suitors to HIM?? He won't play this year..will lose a ton of money..even worse than expected. I thought I smelled a lawsuit awhile ago and mentioned that..am MORE upset that I was correct in him taking this legal route..it'll bury him...before one knows it, there will be a hold on all of it and Deion will be playing for no one. Does one think that taking a case to court will happen quickly? He will lose big time..and Chuyut will look even more stupid.
