^^^Well:
A - It's disingenuous.  "I'm not playing for this amount" is ridiculous; of course he will. Once the games start and the checks don't come, he will cave.  A shocking - shocking - amount of these guys live paycheck to paycheck.
B - It's hurtful to a team attempting to win a Super Bowl.  Their best defensive player is AWOL and games are less than a month from starting.
C - Though it may be his "right" to hold out - and I believe it's his right like I believe it's my right to jaywalk - it's clearly not something that is encouraged by the CBA.  It's just not, in my view, the correct way to go about contract negotiations. 

That's all I have at this hour...

I fully support Darrell Revis's hold out.   I hope he holds out all season long.  Or better yet forever.
