They looked umm MAGICAL last night. 120 without Rashard and the high-man had 21. Such freaking depth and Vince fit in right away. Me likey.

I will rec after test.

It’s not an uncommon practice, though to what extent I don’t know. I’d have to do some digging, but I’ve found quite a few articles that talk about punters/kcikers having LTBE clauses dealing with leading the league in catches or something. It’s a way to roll cap money and preserve it.

This just calls out the Bucs on it and it doesn’t look good, but I think it’s more common than we anticipate.

A person familiar with the finances of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers says that last season, the team signed two free-agents, running back Noah Herron and defensive end Patrick Chukwurah, for contracts that totalled $25 million. Under the rules of the salary cap, the Buccaneers were charged that full amount for the players. But to actually earn that money, each player had to, among other things, block six punts apiece—an exceedingly difficult prospect. In the end, neither player ended up taking a single snap. Mr. Herron was paid $157,000 and Mr. Chukwurah $71,000, although the team’s salary-cap number reflected the full value of their contracts. Tampa Bay, which ranked among the lowest teams in spending last season, has lost all six of its games. Tampa Bay and NFL officials declined to comment.

1.5?

It really is bad to look at some of those stats and get punched right in the face with them.

Nothing better than those fuckers losing.

The Skins coughed up more guaranteed. If the Bucs wanted him, they had the room to make a 110% offer. You dont want to overpay for a guy, but if you have cap room (fictional) of $40 MM and the other teams are at $20MM, you can afford to put that higher offer out there. Make it a tough decision for him, or an offer he can’t turn away from.

Leverage the facts in your favor. That was my beef. What Hayneswroth’s true value in dollars is, I don’t know, but if we wanted him, we could have made an offer that he couldnt pass up.

How about making a commitment to the players that have proven themselves? I know that this season is a complete tryout, but why did we not extend P-Buc (whom I’m sure is getting torched, but we had no one else ready to step up, Ronde doesn’t count)? Why have Tanard, Wilkerson, and Joseph not been extended? For PR reasons you can throw money at guys like AH (not that the team would be conclusively better), but you can structure the deal such that they will find a better deal, ultimately, and it still looks like you are doing right by your fans. Vilma is the same boat, we threw our name in at the last minute as if we were sincere about a play. Same with the Cutler trade. What about signing Jabari Greer or any of the other young corners out there that went for market value and would make our turd of a secondary look somewhat beefed?

but I would rather have 0 comments than bring up a controversial question just to get people to talk about me.

and if the team will remain in Tampa.

that VY was starting.

We will not deviate from these 2 of these 3 barring unforeseen events

I do not apologize for not doing the legwork that a buffoon could figure out in 8 seconds.

Hold Em was so much less mainstream then. The original seems dated.

friends that have gone down different paths.

to Boondock Saints. It’s going to be glorious.

Do you know if Troy Duffy directed? I saw documentary on that guy. After making Boondock Saints he was pretty much blackballed from Hollywood for some reason. The last it said about him was that he was bartending somewhere in his home town. Poor guy.

Btw Suttree you’re a tool box. That was the weakest rant I’ve ever read in my life.
