NOT that I am surprised..but..certainty..VERY interesting what will happen today..besides no CBA
Ditto here.Garbanza said:I am more sad at the prospect of losing Willie than I am of Adam.
dryheat44 said:Dismissed as speculation.
There's no reason for McGinest to move on. Now that there's no cap for '07, we can easily get a deal done.
huskeralk said:That would be irresponsible thinking and I don't see the Patriots as an irresponsible organization. That kind of planning is reserved for the likes of the Colts and Redskins. The Patriots aren't going to put themselves in a horrible cap situation just because there possibly won't be a cap next season.

God damnit, work something out.
I highly doubt Willie is one of those "not one penny less" guys.
If they cut Willie they will be sending the wrong freaking message to this team.
He has been a huge part of this organization.
This just makes me sick to my stomach.
PHUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!
huskeralk said:How would they be sending the wrong message? You can't pay a 34 year old LB $8 plus million for a season plain and simple. I'm sure they would like him to stay but if they can't reach an agreement, what other choice do they have?
What'ss the big deal. People were saying Willie had to take a pay cut or be released a long time ago, way before the CBA stuff.sarge said:This sh!t just makes me sick.

Bobs My Uncle said:Exactly.
Face it this day was going to come sooner rather than later and the Pats were going to have to cut Willie.
At least now they have a built in PR excuse for having to do so ...... The (lack of a) CBA made us do it!
dryheat44 said:Unless an agreement is reached in the next 6 hours and forty-six minutes, there won't be a cap in 2007. That's not a gamble, that's a fact.
huskeralk said:That's the point I'm making. To do something crazy with his contract to keep him here just because we won't have to pay for it next season is irresponsible. There will be a cap again eventually and if he's still under contract when that happens, it's going to catch up with us. I can't see Belichick and Pioli doing something like that.
