"Pay Me", a New Reality Show for the NFL Network.

Picture it, two rookies and two veterans listening to bad advice from agents, living in the same house and hoping to "Get Paid" (directly from Asante Samuel's tattoo)?

We already have inside training camp and hardknocks, how much fun would it be to see JaMarcus Russell, Darrelle Revis, Asante Samuel and Larry Johnson share a house together during their holdouts? How they would react to press clippings and quotes? Listening to what their agents tell them? That wouldn't be better than the 1989 version of NFL Follies?

Toss in Michael Strahan and his family drama, and you have some high rated shows (even though Time Warner refuses to budge and let the NFLN on their system) God, I wish I was a producer...

Asante Samuel's tattoo actually says "Get Rich to This" (Gnarls Barkley reference). Here's a good article and video on him:

I really don't know if I would watch this. Holdouts suck. All they would do is work out and talk on the phone.

I think it could show alot of things instead of your typical played out in the media sort of hold-out. I truly believe, for instance, that the Deion Branch holdout last year would have been phenomenal drama. It would be something to watch maybe after the season was over, and you could see if someone is getting bad advice from their agent, or if the player is stubborn, or the team is cheap, or if it's a combo of all three. How do you think Larry Johnson reaction to Priest Holmes comments yesterday would be shown? I think there would be some drama there. Like I said, NFL Follies circa 1983, or something like this....
