this is the third season I think it's been great. Its tough because there are TONS of characters that they need in the books. But in an hour long show, you may have to tell a chapter of someone's story in 5 minutes.

I used alot more examples than just the Steelers to show this is just how things are done by many teams. Go have a seat with midswat over in the corner. This is what happens when you come in at the end of a thread and fail to be witty.

anyone else watch it

That would be ideal.

As long as Romo's here we have to keep kicking the can down the road. You'll see the same thing with every team with a big money QB. Without exception. For better or worse, that's how it works. Time for people to stop pretending we're doing something out of the norm here despite mountains of...

And if my aunt had frog legs she'd be Ernie Zampese. The penalty was there. Discount it all you want but the possibility exists if it hadn't been there, we'd have signed Grubbs. Or maybe he was too expensive regardless, and we didn't want to spend that cash on a low impact position. We're...

I agree. Again something every team has to deal with. For instance just before last season I believe the Colts led the league in dead money contracts. A one year purge and rebuild later and they're in good shape though. So even that isn't so terrible.

thanks boozefuckwad we've already covered that cap management doesn't always correlate to wins on the field. That does not however mean you are in cap hell - for instance the Browns and Eagles manage their cap more along the way the economic retards in this forum would like, but they don't win...

*enough cap space Nonsense, and this just belies you people's intentional ignorance of standard operating procedure in the NFL. Noone has that sort of cash lying around where they can just sign the top two FAs at a position of need every offseason. There's never been a more appropriate audience...

that isn't an expression that's just something you made up. In this case I'm absolutely right. Even the Huff example has been smashed. #winning

Just wait til I'm a professional moderator.

I'm a moderate.

You're thinking of Donald Brown

we had Allen and Durant in on Monday the 25th. Huff came in on Tuesday the 26th. Later that day him and his agent reveal that yo guys the cowboys really want me but I can't make any promises if they don't have cap space. Wednesday the 27th we sign Durant and Allen. I believe later that day Huff...

There was probably no reason for Huff or his agent to make a story up about how bad we wanted to sign them was there? Weird how we wanted to sign him so bad but couldn't - then just instantly invented cap space and signed Durant and Allen.

*high five

This place is as far to the left as Cowboyszone is to the right. There you'll get shouted down if you criticize the team at all, here you'll be shouted down if you don't criticize them constantly.

We had Allen and Huff in at the same time. Signed one and not the other. You have no idea which our first choice was. We had them in in the morning and signed him that afternoon. I've come up with mountains of evidence from multiple teams who all operate the same way we do. It's normal...

Big bright colors for our mental midget.

no. And do me the courtesy of not setting up oversimplistic strawmen so you can smack them down, hosswat. We may have had an interest, but he was a top guy, we went in another direction that was an equally high need. No teams can sign every top FA every season. So you can't argue that our...
