Its the offseason, and here come the people that want to rip Marion Barber for not working with the team. Just real quick, layoff Marion Barber, say what you want, but Barber has earned his keep. To me this is the Emmitt Smith holdout all over again. You have a very qualified and proven player, and his contract is due for an extension with a raise. Emmitt held out, he got ripped by the media, the team lost 3 straight games without him in the game. The Cowboys will not let this get out of hand, Jerry learned his lesson the last time his star running back was out.
I’m not at all worried about Barber working out on his own. He’s a beast in the gym, probably one of the best conditioned players on the team, he’s not slacking off. Barber deserves to get paid big money, he’s well worth it in my book. Lay off the player, he’s solid. Done with the rant for now…
