Is Jay Cutler right, or suffering from a man-period?

You are an employee, you have been hired to fill a specific role in your company. You have been filling that role to the best of your ability. Even if the stapler does not work right, or the copy machine keeps printing that weird black line down the middle.

One day you're sitting in the break room and lo and behold you find out the head honcho is looking for someone else to fill YOUR job.

How do you react to that?

Well most of us would feel a pang of fear in our hearts, the thought of loosing our jobs, our salary, in this economy is enough to make most men's knees knock. Some of us would try and suck up to the boss, try extra hard to be seen a good light.

Some of us say "screw you guy" and go find a job for yourself before the ax falls.

Which it seems is what Jay Cutler tried to do.

I cant blame him for it. Coming off a Pro-Bowl Season where he led the NFL's second best offense. He apparently knows how to play the position. Josh McDaniel's who up until this point has never led an NFL team decides he'd rather go with the devil he knows in Matt Cassell. The former New England QB who led the Pats to the playoffs under McDaniels' tutelage.

Funny thing is, Cassell ended up going to Kansas City, the Broncos rival. While McDaniels has to spend time trying to rebuild a relationship. Except he didn't wanna admit he tried to make the trade happen in the first place.

So now thing again, you work at a place, boss looks for your replacement, replacement does not come. Do you stay mad at the boss? Do you shrug and keep balling? What do you do?

Since I live in the normal people world, I would stay mad, but keep that on the down-low while looking for a new gig. No need to piss the wrong person off before they stop being the wrong person.

But Jay Cutler does not live in normal people world, he lives in the "get a 10 million dollar paycheck for signing your name" world. And since he lives in that world. I cant really blame him.

If you don't trust someone why bother working for them. Always wondering if they are willing to make sure you don't get screwed over, or in this case, keeps the running back in to make sure Sean Merriman doesn't rip your facemask off.

Sure Jay could say "well you know that Cassell guy plays for my rival, I could stay here and wax his ass twice a year." But he's too upset, and with the way the NFL works, that may happen anyway.

So Jay Cutler, stay mad, try to get out of there.


Its what most real working stiffs wish they could do anyway.
