Playing for the Bengals or retire, that is the question

Carson Palmer has been a Cincinnati Bengal since he was drafted in 2003 out of USC. Now after another losing season Carson is threatening the Bengals to trade him or he will retire. To the Bengals this is a slap in the face because their Pro Bowl quarterback does not want to return to this team. The Bengals have been through a lot already dealing with Batman and Robin (Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco) and now they have to deal with potentially losing their starting quarterback. If the Bengals want any chance of Carson staying they need to add more talent to try to persuade him to stay. If they fail to do that will want to trade him to at least get some talent in return. Of course the CBA will come into effect with this as well, without a new CBA teams are not allowed to trade players. This has drama written all over it and I feel that the Bengals should be looking for a new quarterback.
