So you're telling me Mike and Mike are inept at evaluating talent? Bushrod is a bad tackle who is going to be abused by the likes of Jared Allen and Clay Matthews twice a year. I personally love what the Bears are doing

I think the Bears , with the Lions and Vikings close behind, won FA handily*

lulz, Boldin just said that the way he found out he was traded was by random kids in Africa congradulating him on moving to the niners.

I'm glad the Bucs are at least currently holding strong on that 1st round pick. Revis is probably worth it but you have to show some mettle. If we throw $16m at him, I expect him to flop.It'd be fitting for the Bucs.
I wonder if the Bucs wont part with their 1st if the Jets would come back to the Eagles. It sounds like things fell apart between the teams because the Eagles refused to higher then a 2nd.
Speaking of loyalty, have the Pats ever show any player other than Tom Brady loyalty?
I am loving the bitter tears of Pats following the dismissal of one of their most effective players.

Why do I see Dolphins avatars all over GAF and yet none of them post in here?
Did you guys sign Harrison yet?
I hope he kicks ass against everyone but the Steelers once he gets signed.
Sucks that he is not retiring a Steeler. I don't really give a fuck about most players, but Harrison is the exception to the rule.

Apparently the Dolphins would really like to keep Long around:
I'd like to see him stay, injury history and all. It's risky but if the guy can stay healthy I still think he can be a great LT and it would be nice to have a little more security there.
They're really Heat fans in disguise.

No interest in our off topic community ghetto
Because we actually know how bad the Dolphins are.
The rest of GAF might actually think they are respectable.
Anyone here have any opinions on a good playset for toddlers?
There are so many fucking options. I want something that my kids can use until maybe 4 and then we can upgrade to something larger.

Any Rams fans here? Why did they get rid of Amendola?

Yes.
And no I am not going to cut down a tree and make my own. I am a real man and I will pay some fat dude from Toysrus to assemble it for me while I post on a videogame messageboard.
We are willing to give up Ben (at least I am) for Tebow and some draft picks.
I won't lose any sleep over Wallace leaving. Especially not at that price...
If you mean outdoor swing set type things, I have a cool system from Rainbow Playsets I think the name of the company is. They are even slightly modular so you can upgrade as the kids get older.
I did build it myself but you can pay for them to assemble it.
Probably the fact that he's played a full slate of games only once in his career. Glassendola.
Thanks. Yeah we meant an outdoor playset with swings, slides, etc.
Will check out the Rainbow thing.

Damn, I miss yards of substance.
They have a bunch of options. Very high quality.
Other recommendation would be to go to the Amish.

Haha, that would be great.
I don't blame you, I don't think any other team could justify paying him that much besides the Dolphins (and I won't deny that they probably overpaid him but we'll see). The only thing I'd be worried about as a Steelers fan is how much less effective that offense will be without him, but at that price the only smart option for the Steelers was to let him go.
I'm not surprised, I don't know too many people that didn't want long just not at like 12 million a year. From everything I understand it's basically STL vs MIA and thats it, and there's talk that long may have a handshake to let the phins match.
If we can get long back at our price then Ireland really read the market right and there's word we might even get S.smith back cause he's not going to get nearly what he thought he was worth.
Wallace did not play well last year and the offense was fine until Ben got hurt.
I was just looking at it. That stuff is as good as what you see at a park.
We were thinking of something more for little kids. Probably want to start with something cheap and plastic and then upgrade to wood/metal in another year or two when they are ready for it.
Pretty sure the Amish don't believe in slides and swings. They involve physics and forces that they don't believe in.
Go big or go home. My daughter is younger than your kids and those are what we have. She's been playing on them for a year now no problem. She even climbs the rock wall. Of course, my kids are surely superior to yours.

Nnamdi better take whatever offer we give him... Lest he get takeo spikes'd and never taste the playoffs

Pro bowl season!
I think he will. Eagles still owe him $4 million even after cutting him. Anything he gets this year should be more than enough and if he proves himself again I am sure he can get one more good contract.
Plus he has the Kroll show to fall back on.
You're going to get old n busted Ed Reed and like it!
Buddy of mine is fuming about it. Redskins fan and doesn't want to lose anything to the Browns.
If he comes back well from his injury it'll be a really decent signing if we can pull it off.

You keep saying this but Wallace still led the team in yards receiving and was tied for most TD's with Heath. He had a bad year relative to his past two but no one else on the team was better. I know Ben spread the ball around a lot last year but you act like Wallace didn't do anything for the team. Plus, his speed and the attention he demands probably helped more than it might have seemed.
As someone else pointed out, Mankins held out for more money and I think the Pats franchised him (which pissed him off, this was in the early days of the franchise tag).
I don't remember anything about Wilfork other than him being fat. How exactly were the Pats loyal to him?
Another guy taking taking a Paycut for the Skins. First Moss, Carriker, and now Merriweather, Bruce is doing a great job with cap so far. Hopefully it allows us to get a corner and keep Fred Davis.

I don't mind Sando at times at ESPN with his NFC West blog, but like all of them there (I'm looking at you Ashley Fox) it's hysterical just how clueless they are about football sometimes.
The latest is this nonsense about the Niners signing Glenn Dorsey, how well he fits a 4-3, and whether that means a scheme change for a team that's tied up its two ILB's.
How do they not realize the Niners run a 4-2 and 4-1 in their nickel and dime packages EXCLUSIVELY, with McDonald and Smith inside at DT... the exact spot Dorsey is well suited to for a rotational sub-in.

The Niners run 2-4 and 2-3 in their nickel and dime packages. It all depends on how you count people. Do you count them as their official positions dictate or how they line up?
