Jesus, why is Suggs complaining about the Patriots again? He has nothing better to do?

You won the Super Bowl, stop crying.

He's doing the good Lord's work. Keep preaching the truth, Sizzle!

 

[DragonSworne]

I feel bad for chief fans.

Seriously a bad trade

 

[chuckddd]

The most unselfish, all he cares about is winningest qb of ALL TIME.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have restructured their third - and heaviest - contract of the off-sesaon in Ben Roethlisberger, reportedly saving the team approximately $6 million against the salary cap, as the team attempts to squeeze within the limits by the official beginning of the 2013 NFL season on March 12, 2013.

 

[Bolt Vanderhuge]

Sounds like Suggs is a hero to me.

Terrell Suggs contract restructure coming soon!

[DeaconKnowledge]

You're just a little whiny bitch like Suggs.

You're the Suggs of NFL-GAF, bitching wise, not quality wise, since he is a good player.

What's happening to you Dutch, you used to be so nice.

 

[Futurevoid]

Brandon Carr has also restructured for Dallas.

Carr had a fully guaranteed $14.3 million salary coming his way in 2013 so the restructure is far from a surprise. In fact, Hill reports that it was built into the initial deal and Thursday’s move will save the team $10.5 million under the cap.

That's a pretty substantial restructure. Carr walks away with a large bulk of that right in his pocket.

Cue the American Hero picture.

@AdamSchefter: RT @evansilva: Brady Quinn expected to end up with Jets, according to @mortreport

Nice upgrade from Sanchez.

 

[squicken]

All of these are restructures. Few extensions. Unless the player is going to be a real hero like Tom Terrific, no reason to extend

 

[jbug617]

Amendola is going to be a free agent. I would of liked him on the Pats but he can't stay healthy.

Getting an albatross contract that's fully guaranteed is the only path to true heroism?

Does the NFL have the greatest human beings? MLB has a scumbag that steals from the poor to buy steroids like ARod, NBA has a egomanical traitor like Lebron but the NFL so many good guys that take pay cuts to help their respective teams. Such unselfish players like Lord Brady, Demarcus "Loves the kids" Ware, Brandon " Funding female college education" Carr, Big " Only kinda raped a chick but I payed her off so its cool" Ben.

 

[Futurevoid]

I blame Futurevoid.

Jets going after David Gerrard (good move as he's the only name floated that they've been looking at that's worth a damn)

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/28/jets-kick-the-tires-on-david-garrard/

According to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News, the Jets worked out veteran quarterback David Garrard on Thursday.

Garrard never made it to the regular season with the Dolphins this year, after spending nine years with the Jaguars. If he could stay well, he’d be a viable backup option behind Mark Sanchez, but there has been little recent indication Garrard can do that.

If he can stay healthy, might work out for them.

Players shouldn't have to take paycuts with a sport that makes that much money with a high injury rate.

 

[BlackGhost]

I'd like to see Garrard Start for the Jets next season

It's ok, though. Sanchez was truly unselfish and took a guaranteed contract.

How can you kill that which is already dead?

Giants meeting with former Packer/Eagle DL Cullen Jenkins. If he's not too pricey, I'd like it - wouldn't need to play all downs either with fatass Rogers inside and them often using the trio of ends.

 

[B For Bendetta]

So what's the point of a salary cap when everyone can just restructure their entire salary into a signing bonus? Why not just restructure everyone on the team and sign all of the free agents?

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

The cap is an illusion. No team actually loses a player it doesn't want to

It helps keep players salaries down for the most part. The illusion of a cap allows teams to tell players they have to take less then they might want.

I hate that ugly motherfucker, but I can't hate on what he is saying. The truth from a murderous alien is still the truth.

I am getting my ass kicked on Chapter 9. It is hard to recruit the new characters and not have anyone die. Fuck the desert!

 

[B For Bendetta]

Everyone that's restructuring should lose all of their draft picks

 

[effzee]

All the reason why I never got caught up on being salary cap champs all those years the Eagles always patted themselves on the back for it. Sure its nice to be under the cap and have wiggle room even teams who were in terrible cap situations just a few seasons ago have it under control.

Magic users and flying units don't take a movement hit from sand so use that to your advantage. Pair Gregor up with Nowi so she can move him back to your party more quickly and pair up your best ground units with flying units and mages to cover more ground faster.

 

[Mackenzie 92]

So what's the point of a salary cap when everyone can just restructure their entire salary into a signing bonus? Why not just restructure everyone on the team and sign all of the free agents?

signing bonus still counts against the cap, but it is pro-rated across all years of the contract, and then if that player is released early, all of the bonus immediately counts against the cap. they also continue to stack, so if player restructures in middle of a 4 year deal, the original bonus, plus the new bonus will both still count against the cap

 

[Kave_Man]

I think I may buy a 3DS this year to carry on my collection of DS games.

I'd love it. Said it when he was released. If he's coming in at the right price, he could slot right into Canty's position and rotate with Rogers, Kuhn and Austin. It would do wonders for our DT depth.

 

[mr2xxx]

You do realize these players benefit from these restructures and don't actually take a pay cut.

 

[Futurevoid]

Correct. The part of their contract that's "restructured" is paid out to the player as a bonus in most cases. These aren't pay cuts.

 

[chuckddd]

And if they can't push the cap hit out anymore, then they do a restructure with an extension.

 

[Goro Majima]

Correct. The part of their contract that's "restructured" is paid out to the player as a bonus in most cases. These aren't pay cuts.

It's a way better deal for the players involved as well. They don't have to worry about injury because they're being paid upfront in many cases. Money today is worth more!

Yes but the entire process is stupid

I let Gregor die in that chapter and saved the other person because they seemed like they would be more useful.

The only hard part is when the air cav comes in and my weak ass units get exposed in that sand. I only tried to the chapter twice and it was hard to arrange my units in a way to protect the weaker units. Usually they gang up and gank one of my weaker units. Which I cannot accept.

I will figure it out. This is the best part of the game. Figuring our moves and units to get the desired result.

Yeah would be a solid pick up. Sucks if he stays within the division.

On the Jets...I guess they want actual back up NFL QBs this time around so they can really bench Sanchez if need be.

Where does Tebow land now?

 

[Futurevoid]

Yes but the entire process is stupid

Not for a team looking for cap relief and wanting to keep veterans long term that they feel can still contribute. It's a pretty standard part of cap management.

Indeed. Gregor's nothing special though so you did fine to not worry about him.

Rescue

Most of my deaths are usually from greed.

Not only do I want no deaths, but I am always trying to level the fuck out of my weaker characters so they are all bosses later on in the game.

At this point if I just played my avatar and Chrom together they are almost unbeatable unless they get jumped by like 5 arches and mages at the same time. But I am always trying to level up the shit characters and focused on as much support interaction as possible.
