Albany,n.y. Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Move over, Moses Malone... I like the reference to the Braves biggest blunder next to leaving Buffalo to become the Clippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkKelso'sHelmet Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 What a joke. How does this guy pass a physical if his Achilles can be strained after 15 minutes of practice? Maybe in his downtime, he can collaborate on a new rap song with Maybin, since neither will be playing again this season (I predict) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 What a joke. How does this guy pass a physical if his Achilles can be strained after 15 minutes of practice? Maybe in his downtime, he can collaborate on a new rap song with Maybin, since neither will be playing again this season (I predict) I don't think a physical is meant to reveal every potential problem. You'd think they tested his Achilles but on the other hand you don't run a guy so ragged he pops it. I don't think the team doctors have ESP.

Doc Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 In the grand scheme of things, it's just $1.5M out of Ralph's pocket. The "Ralph is cheap" people should be ecstatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfreak Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 sorry if already posted just saw it on the espn ticker Just another head scratcher move from this clueless front office and organization. Why didn't they just give that million and a half or whatever they are paying him to charity? He has already said he wasn't going to be in Buffalo next year no matter what the outcome of this season is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Saw him the other day in a store. Seemed to be walking fairly normally. Edited November 14, 2010 by DanInSouthBuffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibum Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Oh well, it's not like the team got any worse. They're just $1.8M light in the wallet, and that's about it. Much bigger sums have been frittered away on far bigger busts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 This isn't looking so good for Merriman playing much if at all here in Buffalo. All in it might be a good thing as he might have to come back for another season as other teams aren't going to take a chance on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purple haze Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Just another head scratcher move from this clueless front office and organization. Why didn't they just give that million and a half or whatever they are paying him to charity? He has already said he wasn't going to be in Buffalo next year no matter what the outcome of this season is. clueless how? they needed help at OLB and they claimed him. it was the right thing to do. and merriman has not said he wasn't resigning. the media has said that. and if he did leave there could be a comp pick for the trouble. there was no downside to signing merriman except to have to hear the whining of some fans.

ndirish1978 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 The ticker is just picking up on Chan's comments Friday saying he would not rush Merriman back from injury and that he didn'tknow when he would play.

I did leave that out, but am glad you pointed it out. It kills me that the nattering nabobs of negativity want to make everything sound like it was a bad idea... even though many of them are the same ones who complain that Nix "isn't doing anything to improve the team."
