Having diabetes doesn't preclude someone from playing professionally. Bobby Clark played 15 seasons for the Philly Flyers, and is in the HOF. He had type 1 diabetes which is a lot harder to control than type 2 which is what it think Love had.
I think hes making it up as he goes along. I think he means 'unwashed masses' which still wouldn't make any sense.
Miguel is probably right, but he is guessing at this point. It is an educated guess with the information he has, but even he admits he won't know for sure until we see the deal.
What I object too is the notion promoted by some here (before this deal) that we should view him through some filmy romantic gauze .
Typical.
Kyle Love was released after he got his diabetes diagnosis. All around health, and propensity for suffering from illnesses that run in the family have to be a concern of the Pats - they demonstrated it.
Rumors are strong that they washed their hands of Brandon Lloyd due to his being bipolar.
None of this, and let me repeat.........
NONE OF THIS has a damned thing to do with Vince Wilfork. The reason your posts don't make sense is because you're losing your mind on something that's completely irrelevant to the Wilfork situation being discussed. Vince Wilfork is not his mother. Vince Wilfork is not his father . Vince Wilfork is not his brother. Vince Wilfork is not Brandon Lloyd. From all that's been reported, Vince's issue was that of an older player with a high salary coming off of a serious injury, not that of a player being diagnosed as bipolar or dead of diabetes-related issues.
I'm sorry that you couldn't accept that, and got your panties all wadded up in a bunch, but it is what it is.
You were talking nonsense. You continue to talk nonsense. Unless you've got a medical report that Wilfork is in significant health decline due to diabetes, or has suddenly become bipolar, you're just talking out of your ass.Please child.
The question was do the Pats look at issues off the field. They do. Those are called examples. Look it up.
Who is Gary Tanguay?
$5m is a ton of cash. Anyone have an idea of how much under the cap they are now (assuming these #s are accurate)?
Miguel -- so this means $3 million will get rolled over into 2015 as NLTBE, right??

And it leaves $11.6 million to be paid in 2015 and 2016, if I'm reading it correctly.
So that would mean total cap hit in 2015 and 2016 combined of 16.6 million, with a $2 million dead money hit if cut in 2015 and a $1 million dead money hit in 2016 if cut.
I assume it will be structured so that salary/incentives for 2014 is like $4 million (to accomodate the extra cap hit from the rolled in $3 million) and then like $7 million in 2015. Sound about right?
