When it comes to this issue, those are my favorite words- - - "the Patriots will not be involved".

Looking forward to the Buffalo game. Should be an interesting season.

As a Bay Area resident, I'm looking forward to seeing Seymour in action for the Raiders and all the local press & talk radio regarding his play. I hope this is resolved soon.

Regards,
Chris

It's not their choice. They either put him on the list or pay him for nothing. Even absent language specifically requiring he report, which Al apparently opted not to include, you don't just get to test drive trades..

You've been listening to too much talk radio, he has five days to report then Oakland can suspend him. There are no do overs.

Doesn't matter. That whole locker room is a cancer ward.

The website took down that report. I hope that doesn't mean it was false.

A cancer ward?

I don't think so. Have you ever been to a cancer ward?

No 325 Linemen, no 285 lb LB's, no one healthy at all actually.

I have been there as a patient and I would ask that you think before you post.
