| | | One minute, he's asking for more money. The next, he's expressing regret and backtracking from his comments. So what the heck is going on inside Frank Thomas' head? Page 2 went between the Big Hurt's ears to find out:
Layoffs are mounting. Dot-coms are disappearing. The stock market is plunging more than Toni Braxton's neckline. And how does Thomas
respond? By complaining that he is underpaid at $9 million per season. Showing that his spin control is in midseason form, the Big Hurt reported to camp and expressed regret. |
My message for Jerry Reinsdorf: "Look, I'm not saying that I want to renegotiate or restructure my deal. I just want more money." |
Feelings of jealousy and envy:"#@&^$@&**!!!" |
Repressed feelings: "0-for-9 in the playoffs? Who cares? I get paid for the regular season." |
Future plans:"The fans will understand my position better when I pull a page from Prince's book and paint 'Slave' on my face." |
Basic principles: "Greed
is good."
|
Fond feelings: "My man Sheff. Now there's a guy who's DOIN' something about this kind of shameful exploitation by the bosses." |
