Victor Cruz already not thrilled with $43 million contract he signed just last week

By Frank Schwab | Shutdown Corner –

Usually when an athlete isn't that happy with his contract, the dissatisfaction comes after he has outperformed it for a couple years. Or maybe for one year. But in almost every case, the unhappy athlete has played at least one game before pointing out how he is underpaid.

Victor Cruz signed a five-year, $43 million extension with the Giants last week. It didn't seem like a huge payday for player of his caliber, but it wasn't insulting either. On the surface it seemed like the team got a good deal, and Cruz got some stability heading into the final year of his contract.

And Cruz already seems remorseful over it.

Multiple reports, citing an interview Cruz did with Sirius XM Radio, said the Giants receiver sounded unhappy with the new pact ("Cruz whining" was the New York Post's headline). There was no word on if the ink had dried on that contract by the time Cruz was saying he was underpaid.

“I'm not going to lie, it’s tough. It’s tough,” Cruz said on Sirius XM Radio, via Newsday. “When you understand from a numbers standpoint, and the numbers you put up you feel like deserve a certain amount of money ... and you want your team to owe that to you.

Boo hoo!!!!

God cares!

So I guess he found out someone else is making more than he is.

How's a man supposed to get by on a meager $43 million a year?

[phkrause]

No, that would be 43 million for 5 years! He signed a 5 year contract. So we need to divide 5 into 43 to get his take home pay.

No, that would be 43 million for 5 years! He signed a 5 year contract. So we need to divide 5 into 43 to get his take home pay.

Lets see, that's $17,200,000 a year. Boo Hoo Hoo!!!!

And $1,433,333.30 per month. Boo Hoo Hoo Hoo!!!

And $27,564.10 per week. Cry me a river.

And $2,297.0083 per day!!! And that's called idol worship. And he still isn't satisfied.

Yes its incredible, isn't it. He makes more in a week than probably 75% of Americans make in a year!!

And if he gets maimed and never play again, or if he missess half of the games each year, he still gets paid! I don't know how much of his contract is guaranteed, but the team has no guaranty that he will perform as well has his past performance.
