Philly.com: Jackson Says Rosenhaus Bribed Him To Switch Agents

[ThoughtProcess]

Therefore claiming that he shouldn't have to pay back the money Rosenhaus says he lent him.

In the docs, DeSean says he shouldn't have to pay Drew a dime because a huge chunk of the cash was given to him to induce DeSean to use D.R. in his next contract negotiation.

Why is that a big deal? Because according to DeSean, it's a huge violation of NFLPA rules -- for which the NFLPA punishment is that DeSean wouldn't have to repay a single cent.

Now for the cool part ... part of the money he received from Drew came IN CASH -- stuffed inside a Louis Vuitton bag he received just after midnight on Nov. 10, 2009. It was reported a day later that Jackson had fired his previous representation, and intended on hiring Rosenhaus

...if this is true, makes me wonder if Rosenhaus made a similar arrangement with T.O. after he signed with the Eagles.

I don't see the difference between how he gave Jackson the money. What if he only charged him a 2% commission instead of 3? Is this really bribery? Can't you buy a client? I suppose that cash could be considered an incentive. This stuff happens all the time in business. The littls squid just doesn't want to pay up. Fuck'em.

I hope the IRS goes after him too.

According to Jackson's camp, such an arrangement is a violation of NFLPA agent regs or something like that.

On top of everything else that little punk is a welcher.

LOL You can't make this shit up. This is great.

Jackson is right up there with the UNC bball player whistleblowing on the program and Roy Williams.

I know an agent who used to invite college players over to his house around Christmas and give all the players ipods, cell phones, play stations, games, etc. All stuff that is against the rules. Agents don't care because they never get punished.

But wait! There's more!

Not unexpectedly, Rosenhaus advised Jackson to hold out for more money in 2011. Jackson reportedly was so angered by the botched holdout and the resultant backlash that he moved to fire Rosenhaus, who then allegedly offered Jackson approx. $143K to change his mind.

Again, I wonder if this is what went down with T.O. too.

My admiration for both Rosenhaus and Jackson grows with each passing day!

LOL, not a good look for either one! Rosenhaus confirms that he's a weasel and Jackson exposes his motivation

[Vote for Kalas]

I'm shocked! Shocked!

Jackson was such a good citizen here and Rosenhaus such a class act...wow

[FRESH]

Yeah, Jackson was out beating kids and snatching old ladies' purses. That certainly justifies Rosenscum's manipulation and bad advice.

[Jukin]

Yeah, Jackson was out ...snatching old ladies' purses.

Oakland PD said he's no criminal. So you gotten it backwards Fresh - he was out pursuing old ladies' snatches!

Popper's advice to Fresh-" Don't lend DJ any money"

[FRESH]

I'd be afraid to do it for either one of them Popper. I'm afraid that if you reached out to hand them a wad of cash, all you would get back is a bloody stump!

Yeah, but they'd both give you a nice smile while they did it.
