It's probably naive of me, but I found this shocking:
AS: Actually, they got it wrong. It says, "Get Rich To This." Gnarls Barkley came out with a song, "Get Rich To This." I take it to mean that whatever you're doing -- and it's not just about making money -- just get rich to this. You're doing your best. You're going all out. You want to succeed and do the best you're doing.
I believe even Saint Mike repeated the "Get Paid" fabrication. If you can't trust these people to get this easily checked detail right, what can you trust them to report accurately.
"Get rich to this" isn't even by Gnarls Barkley, it's by the Goodie Mob, which makes Samuel look kind of foolish.

I'm absolutely stunned that Asante does not have a Get Paid tatoo. Just chalk it up as one more thing in the "if you repeat it often enough" camp.
It's really shameful for this to have been reported so often, so loudly, and so ubiquitiously as fact without anyone bothering to check. Asante has done plenty to deserve a reputation for being greedy this off-season. I'm not denying that.
But it really sucks when something get repeated so often that it hardens opinions, and then the opinions are already so formed that it becomes irrelevant when the "fact" turns out to be false.
And for an undrafted rookie free agent with less than 10 games starting experience locked up against who was regarded at the time as perhaps the best WR in the league, average is a very harsh grade.
I would say it was much closer to remarkable. Owens had his share of catches, but very few yards. 8 for 86 if you take out that one pick play. McNabb forced him the ball quite a bit, but it wasn't a case of bad coverage. He was usually tackled immediately, which is probably the way Belichick instructed Gay to play it.
That's exactly what my admittedly lousy memory is telling me. Gay kept Owens in front of him and played it safe, not going for the interception, defensing when he could and tackling otherwise. It was a ball-control defense intended to force a big-play Eagles offense into working their way down the field on a hot day. They were not as well-conditioned or well-coached as the Pats and that appeared to be Belichick's plan.
Given who he faced and what he allowed, I thought Gay did well in that game.
DH, you made a point earlier about BB possibly extending Samuel after the bye. He would have to wait until the end of the regular season to offer a multi-year contract.
He could say: "It's a team game, and I am where I am today because my TEAM won some Superbowls while I was a *member* of the team, so, like others on this club, I'm gonna re-structure my contract so it fits with the others and still gives me 6 to 8 million (guaranteed) a year for the next four years or so. I can live on that. There's only so much bling a guy needs. One car with spinners on the wheels is enough."

The tattoo he (according to Asante) actually does have isn't much different, and I'm a little iffy on the supposed meaning.

Yeah, he's pretty stoopid!

Champ Bailey's the best Corner, but he's not the best Defensive player in the NFL. Samuel is nuts to say he's better than Bailey.
Oh, but his precious agent tells him he is!! Where do these 25 year olds get all these fantasies and wild notions from?? The get this crap piped into their heads but the leeching, blood-sucking, fan and team-screwing agents. Satans.
Selfish individualism has led to Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, and Michael Vick. If agents are not brought under control soon, all pro sports will be like the NBA: "show time", eye candy only. Full of mental caries and zero redeeming value. The whole beauty of sports will be reduced to me-firstism, which truly sux.
