Tendering Wallace was to be expected considering we were more likely to sign him to a long term deal than franchise tag him. It doesn't make sense to take the $9-10 million dollar hit for this season and not have him secured for next season.

I'll be curious to see if any team actually offers up their 1st rounder for him.

On the Victor Cruz front:

Mike Garafolo

So Victor Cruz is looking for a new agent. But swore no urgency, said not actively seeking new deal and laughed at idea of holding out. FWIW

Of course he's looking for a new deal but it's good to hear he doesn't plan to go all hold out in the offseason.

 

[jakncoke]

TD better get in the HOF before Bettis is all I know.

You know this isn't going to happen.

Good news for the vikings.

IMO it's a mistake to just tender him. I'd work to sign him to a new contract and not risk losing him.

Man, you give your front office so little credit. You don't think this was sort of a last ditch effort type of move?

Those Jets fans at 3:11 knew what was up.

 

[chuckddd]

I own both a Tim Couch and a Brady Quinn jersey, so I think that qualifies me for Browns-age.

Prepare to add a jersey of our lord and football player.

 

[jakncoke]

fuck Sanchez for what he did against Penn St. in the Rose Bowl.

Screw Luck for what he did against Duke in a completely meaningless regular season game.

For what? Exposing that program for the ACC propped up joke that it is?

SWAG.

I went out with Taylor Swift once. I didn't return her calls after the first date.

Greg is Tim Tebow!?

 

[Greg]

Greg is Tim Tebow!?

No comment.

 

[Bolt Vanderhuge]

Word is swirling that James Farrior is next.

To date Taylor Swift ?!?

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

To date Taylor Swift ?!?

Probably. She seems loosey goosey if she would go out with Greg.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Was that nude picture of her real or not? I gotta know.

Also, I have a conspiracy theory that Mike Brown sets up his players when they are heading into free agency so that they look guilty of crimes so he can resign them at a discount rate. Simpson is a complete dipshit.

Jerome Simpson pleads guilty to felony drug charge. He could face 60 days in prison. No doubt he'll be suspended as well from the NFL...

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/01/jerome-simpson-pleads-guilty-to-felony-drug-charge/

WLWT in Cincinnati reports that Simpson has pleaded guilty to one felony drug charge arising from the arrival of a package full of marijuana at his residence early in the 2011 NFL season.

Under the plea agreement, Simpson faces up to 60 days in jail with work release (does Nike make an officially-licensed ankle bracelet?), three years probation, and 200 hours community service.

Sentencing will occur next month. In addition to potential jail time, Simpson surely faces a suspension from the league office.

Wow, I expected a whole hell of a lot worse. When that story first broke it sounded like they were going to go after him for trafficking.

It's not the off season, unless a Bengal is arrested.
Yes I know it happened last year, point still stands.

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

Why is Lynn Swann bolded?

Might as well put a strike through Ray Lewis, Tom Brady and Peyton Manning right now. Those are surefire HOFers. I'm pretty sure Warner will get in as well.

It's a crime that Phil Simms isn't in. The SB performance was legendary.

Just highlighting that the HOF WR who also won a Superbowl MVP and multiple rings for the Steelers has had all his career and single season franchise records broken by Hines Ward. (Yancey Thigpen holds yards in a season tho!).

I just really like Hines Ward, dude should get in the HOF from heart alone.

Why would anybody want to see Taylor Swift nude? She's 12.

Katy Perry's face is busted, though.

just wondering who it was.

GAF would have me believe I am the only man on the planet that thinks she's hot. With Gaf, it's always Ass over Class.

Makes sense.

turned to be a good a bit less in his house than was initially rumored, maybe that's why. Still over two pounds though.

Two pounds, damn.

Two pounds, damn.

Football players have a high metabolism, though. That's like a dime bag to you or me.

 

[jakncoke]

One day they'll make a bowl game again and you can find hate in whomever beats you.

 

[vas_a_morir]

They also have a high number of leachers.

As if I didn't hate him enough for standing in the way of St. Quinn.

 

[levious]

seriously, could have been for a party.

 

[eznark]

fuck Sanchez for what he did against Penn St. in the Rose Bowl.

He really bent them over...like a prepubescent boy in a shower

Is this a Mike Leach joke?

pretty much

 

[Skiptastic]

why is skip still not on the list

Someone cares! :3

who?

 

[eznark]

Luckily for you, we were talking about skip, not skiptastic!

 

[bluemax]

He'd be the best qb on the roster!

We still have Michael Robinson!

 

[Skiptastic]

Luckily for you, we were talking about skip, not skiptastic!

Whew! That was too close!

Wait, then you don't care!

 

[jakncoke]

Whew! That was too close!

Wait, then you don't care!

To be fair you were added to the listed way before skip if that makes you feel any better

 

[Skiptastic]

It does! :3

 

[LJ11]

I'm late, but I wanted to chime in on the HoF talk.

Carter/Reed/Brown are not really taking votes from one another, their not cancelling each other out. Maybe Reed and Carter did this year, but Reed was in the final group last year without Carter/Brown and still didn't get in.

Each voter has his guy at receiver and won't switch when the list gets paired down. Now if you consider that taking votes from x/y/z fine. In reality they're just a group of stubborn cunts.

 

[jakncoke]

Shame we can't see how close the players not voted in got to getting in like we can in MLB

 

[BaltimoreLarry]

I don't think Hines Ward is HOF worthy. How many times was he top 3 WR in the NFL? Top 5? He's like Rafael Palmeiro of the NFL.

 

[eznark]

I wish the HoF went to unanimous approval only.
