Great book and pretty good TV adaptation. Hope they get to finish it.

In the last 20 years, I have worked at two small companies. The first small company paid slightly above average and had normal benefits. The "CEO" who was very good friends with the owner repeatedly told people that they would not just be let go and he'd "have a sale" before letting anyone go. He married the woman in marketing. He, his wife, the COO and the head of the support department were a little clique and routinely abused their positions. I ended up leaving for the 2nd company.. they wanted an exit interview and grilled the hell out of me why I was leaving. Didn't think anything of it until the next month when they let 90% of the company go and realized they must have thought I knew something. My current small company is amazing. No PTO limit, high salary, low stress work environment, ability to be completely remote (I go camping for weeks at a time and still work), owner is hands off. Long story short, small companies can be and often are just as bad. Although, I think it's more like to find an awesome small company than an awesome big one. On the topic at hand.. the PR department doesn't know the guy is getting cut.

There's always therapy in the mean time.. like the whole mean time.. every minute.. and maybe after for a few decades.

I suspect, if they can find someone, it will be a Wilson and a 6th for a 7th type of situation. A team preparing to draft a QB next year, might take the cap hit off their hands for pick and the long shot that Wilson can actually play football.. or the jet Blue discount that comes with him.

It is more advantageous to cut him next offseason. They suffer a much higher penalty in 2025 cutting him this year than they do in in 2026 cutting him next year (Post-June). The total dead cap + this year cap hit of keeping him and cutting him in 2025 is not much more than the total dead cap of cutting him this year. Personally, I think keeping him and hoping that he can provide something at some point in the season makes more sense. The injury he suffered tends to take more than year for younger guys to recover fully and achieve previous ability.

It saves 6.7m this year to have to pay it the next. That money doesn't simply not have to be paid. It makes little sense to cut him beyond the "RAWR I'M MAD AT VON MILLER SO GET HIM OFF THE TEAM AT ALL COSTS" thought process

Why would anyone hope that? His dead cap would be higher than the cost of him being on the roster.

He has been working for PFT which is owned by NBC.

Why bother? They'll be fighting for last place again.

Tasker took a lot of hits to the head during his time in the league. I have no explanation for Brown.

The world was a better place when Craig Carton was in Jail.

Everything you read on the internet is true!

Given the valuations of teams, it's not surprising. Not many individuals who can afford one so if the NFL needs bigger pockets.

Thoughts and prayers are really the most important thing for anyone who's suffered violence. I don't understand why we have dedicated services to get people to a hospital, but do nothing to ensure they have thoughts and prayers.

Who knew it was as easy as making a casserole! Speaking, anyone got a recipe for that? I tried it without one and now look at the economy

Hiring him here was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen for both sides and I've spent a lot of time on this forum.

Remember, when ya'll are kvetching about Terry Pegula and hoping he sells the team.. pretty much all the owners suck.

Rex is looking to get back into coaching and they go with this guy?!!!

Fair or not, certain language and phrases get co-opted and the "I'm just asking questions" phrase has been hijacked. So if you use that language, it's an indication of something whether you intended it or not. It is unfortunate for the rare person who didn't know, but that is life and life is not fair.

Brother is a douchebag. Wife is a docuhebag. Father is a douchebag. Patty's PR teams works overtime to keep from finding out he's a douchebag too. He almost blew it this year.

Can it "fall apart" if it only works against bad teams in the first place?

It sure sounds like it: https://larrybrownsports.com/football/charles-haley-penis-*****/269742 Here's an excerpt about Haley's Locker Room antics: "Once Haley wrapped an Ace bandage around it and strolled through the locker room, screaming, “I’m the last naked warrior!”

My deepest condolences. My heart goes out to you and yours.

I just hope that his back is better before the game.

Well, you're not wrong.
