  1. The quid pro quo apparently will come from the movement of the start of the league year (and in turn the launch of free agency) from after the Scouting Combine to before it. While at first blush this suggests the new league year will land in February, the more likely outcome is that the Scouting Combine will happen in March. Regardless of the precise dates for the Scouting Combine, the change means that the Combine no longer would be the league’s annual tampering swap meet. The market already would be open, and agents would be trying to do deals with teams instead of merely laying the foundation for those deals in a way that violates NFL rules. The league had wanted to move the Combine to March, to delay the launch of free agency to April, and to nudge the draft to May. The NFLPA wisely balked, since it would delay the transfer of offseason funds from teams to players. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/05/20/offseason-overhaul-close-to-happening/
  2. YES, that part is true, you must be paid in full BEFORE you can list your tickets on the NFL Ticket Exchange. your second part is not correct. I have 10 season tickets, my account is paid in full. I have been told by my Buffalo Bills Account Rep that I will NOT be able to list my tickets, even though I am paid in full, til sometime early june. they will send me an email and she confirmed my email addy. she also said the tickets that are listed now, are from special brokers who pay an additional fee (I did not ask to whom).
  3. actually I am very excited about the upcoming season. I am still a pessimist on the win loss record, but I am excited about the upcoming style of play. specifically the entertainment and excitement of watching an Attacking style defense and EJ Manuel throwing a long ball.
  4. just as a point of interest... season tickets holders are not yet able to post tickets for sale on the NFL Ticket Exchange until sometime in early June (they will be sent an email notification of exact date). the tickets that you see for sale now on the NFL Ticket Exchange are from some type of Broker who pays an additional special fee.
  5. love when that secondary market heats up....
  6. "The funny thing is it's easier to learn than the offense I had at Florida State," he told SiriusXM NFL Radio. "It's a true West Coast-type progression offense. That's really what I wanted when I was coming through the pre-draft process. I wanted something that I could just go in and say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, check it down and run it. That's it, it's that simple. I love it." http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9291927/ej-manuel-buffalo-bills-system-easier-learn-florida-state-offense E J Manuel will be the opening day starter.
  7. Who Gets to Keep the Ring after the Engagement is Broken off? Surprisingly enough, the answer to this question is not a simple as it seems. Each State is different. Some courts believe the ring is clearly the donee's as it was a gift, others believe that because the ring was given conditionally, it is the property of the donor until the marriage occurs. http://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/return-of-the-engagement-ring.html
  8. on a serious note..... Most people who mention suicide don't want to die, they just want to stop hurting. THIS GUY NEEDS PROFESSIONAL HELP !!

  11. Friday, he released a three-page series of text messages sent to Marzoukis mobile phone in which Williams wrote on Nov. 11, & I took 3 hydrocodones this morning and no one knows; and & Im going to take 2 more on the plane and fade away; He also texted &;No money in the world should leave me with suicidal thoughts.; In a message on the same day, Marzouki replied, & You told me youre having suicidal thoughts. Clearly me & you dont need to talk after every mean thing you said to be, but Im going to tell DD to call you or something BC you went above and beyond saying suicidal thoughts, taking pills. Someone that you trust needs to intervene. http://blog.chron.com/ultimatetexans/2013/05/mario-williams-text-message-no-money-in-the-world-should-leave-me-with-suicidal-thoughts/
