At 42 he was still better then 80 % of the recievers in the league.I think they dont want anyone over 40 representing the NFL.

one example was the championship game in seattle when the seahawks were inside the twenty they threw a pass that was dropped in the end zone.Jerry rice was on the sidline with his hands he would have caught it.I think Holmgren was told not to play him.

If he could play he'd still be playing. He wasn't run out of the league and he wasn't better than 80% of other receivers. Why would teams conspire against him? Give some facts for your assertion.

Because the Raiders are idiots...Well, you can't say they don't want anyone over 40...(See Vinny Testaverde and Morten Anderson)

Liability reasons. He may be better, but he can't take as many hits. Simple anatomy.

Because if he keep going no one would break his records. And the NFL is racist.
