3rd post down on this page: Free Agent QB Baker Mayfield
You wrote the following, which quotes me twice of things I absolutely never said:
I never said those things. So, to quote you: "When you literally have to lie about what I said... you have nothing to stand on."
Now STFU liar. The...
The success - or lack thereof - of this year's offseason will be measured by what happens April 25, 26 and 27. Obviously there were no big splashes during free agency but this year wasn't really all that great of a year to make a splash in the first place. And no, overpaying for Calvin Ridley...
People need to relax. There was no "Glaser hate". There was, however, legitimate concern regarding what her role with the team was when she was first announced as "Senior Advisor to the Head Coach", a position which seemingly exists nowhere else in the NFL.
Of course, the usual morons tried...
<sigh> I can't believe no one has given the most obvious response to this thread, so I guess it falls on me. Apologies in advance....
Tom Brady is not walking through that door.
Bullcrap. The #1 reason he lost Parcells was because he hired a GM who was the final say on player moves, including the draft. Parcells was pissed he no longer shopped for the groceries.
Having a GM who makes player decisions instead of the HC is how 90% of NFL teams are run - including New...
Guys like CeeDee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Ja'Marr Chase must be laughing themselves silly right now. Get the Brinks Trucks ready.
Since when is millions of dollars "minor money"..??
If Baker Mayfield signed with NE instead of TB, he'd be taking home $2.5 million less from his signing bonus. That ain't minor money.
I see people reference that comment every once in a while and talk about how it is going to happen.
That comment was made over 10 years ago, and the NFL has never been stronger. It's time to come to the realization that he was wrong.
1. As discussed yesterday, a MA resident pays MA income tax on all his income, no matter where it is played.
2. The highest paid players are more and more getting payment in the form of bonuses, not game-by-game salary. So to say half of their pay takes place out of state is just not accurate...
They are not deferring compensation, they are converting a player's salary and/or roster bonus to signing bonuses so the player gets the compensation right away but the cap hit gets spread over the next 5 years.
I agree there should be limits. It is a little ridiculous to allow a team to...
This is a very tricky issue. What happens is it creates the problem where a player can't find a job because no one wants to pay him league minimum even though he would be willing to take less and would be happy taking less.
No, it really isn't a slippery slope. You adjust the cap for something major which directly impacts a players bottom line.
Some states play at a roughly 10% disadvantage compared to other states. You say it is not that significant but this year that's a $25 million salary cap advantage teams...
Returning to football.... I agree 100% with those saying Ridley is just using NE as a bargaining chip with Jax. He ain't coming here whether we want him or not.
We have no idea what motivates the thousands of professional athletes out there, but let the record show I was referencing one specific athlete who (according to reports) has the choice between MA and FL, and is already leaning FL. It is not unreasonable to think the Patriots would have to...
