  1. You do know that any schlep that has an internet connection can update Wikipedia don't you?
  2. I actually see his friends' reactions as "WOOHOO, he made it! Now we can finally move on to the next trick!"
  3. Not only does building up the team everywhere else increase our chances of making the playoffs this year, it also increases our chances of signing a good FA QB next offseason. We're pretty loaded at WR and should also have a good running game to balance our attack. So if Rivers, Bradford, Cam Newton, or Eli Manning make it to free agency then we might be able to attract one of them.
  4. I'm hoping that Tyrod can somehow come through and take the starting spot. I just watched NFL Rewind of the final regular season game of 2012 where the Ravens played the Bengals. This is the only game where Tyrod played for any length of time. I have to say it was a mixed bag but given that he'd hardly played at all before that he wasn't too bad. He definitely has the elusiveness to keep plays alive and to gain yards running. His throws were pretty accurate and had some zip on them. He seemed to mainly lock on his primary receiver early in the game but later on I did notice him looking off safety's and also throwing to his second read. Near the end of the game he had a deep throw to the sideline that was just a little too far outside for the receiver to stay in bounds. But the distance was perfect. There were also a couple dropped interceptions and one pick six where the lineman made a nice play jumping and batting the ball up to himself (EJ can relate). But overall he looked like given the right game plan he could at least be a game manager while having the ability to occasionaly throw deep to keep defenses honest. It was only one game but I thought he at least showed some potential. From the little I saw of him I would put him a bit above EJ mainly because his passes looked more accurate. All that said, I have a feeling that Cassel will be the starter possibly with Tyrod thrown in there once in a while just to change things up (similar to wildcat).
  5. I heard he has 3 days to appeal. Now how long it takes for the appeal to be decided is anyone's guess. I'd guess it wouldn't take more than a few weeks. I would think his suspension would start as soon as it can during the regular season. So as long as the appeal doesn't drag on it should start week one. If it's not settled until late September then he'd play the first game or two. But I'd be surprised if that were to be the case.
  6. I was originally thinking he'd be suspended for 2 games at most and probably only 1 so as not to affect a divisional game. But after hearing all the clamoring for punishment I'm thinking he gets 8 and it's reduced to 6 upon repeal. I would be happy with that.
  7. If this is true then we should be stirring up as much outrage around the country as we possibly can.
  8. He's Brady's friend because Tom let's the Donald use the missing air to inflate his hair.
