lol they literally just gave Gilliam an extension. What planet do you live on?

yet another crazy that thinks Blackshear is making the team over someone like Taiwan Jones.

Bill loves his tight ends

absolutely. Snyder being exhibit A. With what he’s already been pretty much proven of doing, if he didn’t have receipts on the rest of these guys he woulda been Sterling’ed out of the league already.

that’s great info thank you. Makes me think maybe, just maybe, the league was more amenable to a less than a season suspension because the other owners are clearly PO’ed at the contract Haslem gave him.

yikes, agreed. I personally like the standing logo but white on red buffalo is the way to go. So how about dem renderings?

all my life I’ve never wished to have injury on any football player (or any athlete really); it’s bush league and scummy. Not even Brady when he was stomping us. I am wavering with this guy. that’s very interesting I have not seen that reported anywhere (but NFL media has been wrong about these sort of things en masse before.) so he would have needed to play only 1 game this season for the contract and its guarantees not to toll?

yes. It’s ridiculous. Mind you, if he was suspended 12 games or more (much more would have been the right thing to do) his contract would have tolled, but, he still gets $44mil and change this year in signing bonus. So with 11 games he’s losing practically nothing. Now, his $1mil base salary is chopped 11/17th. Wow, what a punishment. And the scumbag still claims complete innocence while the owner stands right next to him contradicting that.

11 isn’t odd when you factor in he needs 6 games for his giant guarantee to kick in next year as opposed to 2 years from now. The league caved, they should be ashamed.

Rich doesn’t hide his disgust it’s great

speaking of…here’s Rich today:

Well that’s not happening. today I learned about European soft and hard consent from Breece Hall’s biggest fan. That’s enough TBD for today.

Just guessing here, but it’s possible the suspension length aspect is settled (and I think the league is not budging on the year long duration of it, because, as you say, the NFL will be crucified all over again if it’s shortened to 8/10/12.) What could still be at issue and what the two sides are still hammering out are things like the fine amount and mandatory counseling, things like that.

He’s nowhere near ready to play now. So he’s not taking reps away from anyone, young or older. He also doesn’t cost a roster spot until he’s near ready to play. So again, even if signed tomorrow, not taking reps away. What if one of these promising young guys busts out? Gets in trouble? Injured for the year?

I don’t understand how signing OBJ and releasing one player to make room for him would in any way be considered “blowing up” their roster. Help me out here

Trade?

Brady’s just away because he can be. No team still employing him is gonna say no if he wants half of training camp off.

this is depressing and informative at the same time and I thank you for it. I honestly don’t know what the answer is, beyond the obvious and banning guns at a youth football game (which won’t happen in texas) but yeah, in general, the parents at these games need to chill out. So many of them are still trying to live out their failed athletic fantasies through their kids and they take it way, WAY too seriously.

“Someone” got “shot to death” over a youth football game. Civilized enough? No. He was there obviously but no warrant is out for his arrest for anything connected to this. His brother is in big trouble. doesn’t help the OP won’t edit his thread but yeah. We’ve already learned his level of effort.

It’s Texas. edit: lol stay mad. I’m not making any sort or political statement or criticism. More people carry guns in Texas per capita than other other states/places. It’s just a fact.

it wasn’t great, and the camp reports haven’t been great either. Immense amount of talent coming into the league, but maybe the injuries have sapped some of that, as others have said.

He’s shown up in camp this year apparently.

Agreed you don’t mess with the refs unless there’s some sort of blatant bias going on (ref is a relative of someone on the other team, etc…) even if there is, you go through the proper channels to report it.

I think Allbright is pretty reputable, since he reports on the NFL and included a press release in his tweet. from the city in which the incident happened. more reputable than providing absolutely no source…
