It ain't what it used to be. Sad.

So, so true.
At least half those guys don't care whether they win or lose, or even their own stats, once they sign a big contract. They're just there to collect checks.
Yeah, there are a few players and organizations that are still serious about competing, but there are far too many that don't really care.
