  1. what would be interesting to know is how much the first contract that was offered differs from the final one. I bet in terms of money very little (at least little in the world of pro sports)
  2. magic date for that is the day of the draft. if they have not signed him by then he goes back in the draft
  3. Fair enough but he is the 11th pick. That also goes to speak of the importance of producing a winner. l am not trying to a jerk it is just frustrating looking at what winning organizations do year in and year out. Mark Sanchez was the what 5 pick and was signed before camp. look at the three people left to be signed and what organizations that picked them. SF CINN BUF the collective records of those org over the last decade speak for themselves. At least they had some winning seasons and playoff games. I fully understand that maybin maybe the one holding up the negotiations. Just fustrating
  4. I am not going to hold my breath. It is inexcusable at this point that he is not signed. The parameters are set even if they aren't this needs to have been done long ago. Don't you think it curious that pitt, ne indy and others usually have all of their picks in every year before camp?
  5. not drafting brown was inexcusable. overload on db on no de worth anything appears to be the draft strategy
  6. wow already??????? jesus one quarter and its over??????????? REFINLAX
  7. Man we can get all the news about JP's ingrown hairs but nothing about bowen?
  8. Sources for the salivating? I can't believe that there are that many.
  9. RIP sad day for the philly family and football fans in general. I always wondered why he never got a mention for a head coaching job?
  10. Frez, Bad .... no HBO or Cinemax on demand. I was not told this but when I asked they listed showtime and starz so I assumed something that I should not have. Should they mention that? I think so but I understand them not being so forthcoming. For one of my other tv's they sent me a HD box instead of a SD DVR and if I wanted to change it right then the entire order would have to been canceled and rescheduled. This is me being picky but no back light on the remote seems foolish. Again me being picky but I had not idea how much I used the clock on the cable box there is not a clock on the hd dvr box and it has caused some wondering what time it is. Again, picky but a real world problem as minor as it is. No exercise tv on demand either ...that sucks Good free nfl ticket and TONS and I mean TONS of HD channels. I do not know what provider you have now but Time warner did not carry the nfl network and let me just say this as a bills/football fan I had no idea what I was missing. The HD DVR has a media extender in it so you can stream your computer video's music and pictures right from you computer to your tv. It is not perfect but I had no idea that it was available it connected immediately and had already impressed the wife as it is much easier than the xbox 360 to do the same thing. There is an action function that puts up the local weather and some other crap.. There is a app store function that shows scores of games as well as does some other things but I have not explored it much. Perhaps a member here could explain them to the both of us? There are many more channels that have on demand service than time warner i.e. syfy, noggin and many many others. My reception is better on most channels but not all. The installer was great and did everything I asked. He mentioned this is a good time to order b/c at the middle of Aug they get killed with calls as the football season is about to start. My order from call to install was less than 2 days. If you do order they have a refer a friend that will give you an additional 100 off your bill. I would be happy to submit my account number to you to give you and me the discount. (selfless promotion) I am sure there are other headaches and benefits that I am not aware of. I happy to have order the service and can't believe I waited as long as I did. If anyone could answer about a backlit remote(if there is one), what the apps and action functions do that would be great.
  11. I am sorry I don't usually click on that Skoody's (whatever his name is ) topic he stated a similar package that I just mentioned.
  12. Hello all ... and more of just an FYI for those of you that do not have Direct TV that may be reading this. I signed up for Direct TV yesterday (F YOU TIME WARNER sorry ) and the current deal is get 5 months of Premier package for free for when you order the NFL ticket for 59.99 a month. So for 59.99 I am getting all of the channels and the Sunday ticket. After the 5 months you can downgrade your service to lower your bill (He said it would not extend the contract) but that would be after the season (well the Bills season anyway). Add the refer a friend and it takes another 100 off 10 a month. Go paperless 20 bucks off one time. They also have unadvertised bundles with Windstream that will take another 15 off your bill if you have windstream with DSL (bye bye Road runner). My cable bill went from 127 to 204 in one month. I called three different people to try and work out a new package and not a single one of them did anything more than drop it 10 dollars. I am happy to be joining the Direct TV family mostly so I can finally watch the NFL network..
  13. boomer esiason and Jaws in my book I hate Simms/Buck/Aikman/ even tasker gets on my nerves.
  14. I would not pay 49.99 to own the entire website.........
  15. Jesus why isn't this guy signed yet? Give him a two year deal incentive laden deal with no signing bonus. He screws up he is cut.
  16. It would be good PR for all of us UB Alums around! Plus it would not hurt to have a project QB.
