    Well,it was written into his contract that he couldn't ride motorcycles to prevent somethin' ,like what happened,from happening. He rode a bike,so I think that since he went against a written clause,they could legally terminate his contract the day of the accident.

    Yeah the Bulls had the legal right to terminate his contract. I think Owners learned from players like Baker & Kemp, to include these type of clauses in contracts.

    Yes they could if it was written into his contract. You are a lawyer right?
