  1. I was being facetious, the ref called a hold. Either way, that wasn't material to the play and was complete BS to rob an exciting play.
  2. What exactly got called there? Holding? WHERE?
  3. There's no excuse for Fred having more carries than CJ. Just none.
  4. Jesus how many times has Freddy fumbled when it mattered this year to kill momentum. And what is with Chan and ONLY putting Freddy in on a drive or ONLY Spiller. MIX IT UP ON THE SAME DRIVE!
  5. I think it's pretty clear he's drawing a comparison to our current problems with our defense. I just hope it doesn't take us as long as Philly to either dump Wanny or stop with the pop warner defense.
  6. I agree 100%. Freddy didn't sound too confident after practicing with the brace and with the way Spiller started I'd rather he come back 100% than do further damage. Sure Choice doesn't have the home run threat but he got some nice chunks of yardage and this O-Line will make anyone a superstar. We should be able to win this game without either of them.
  7. From Orange County, CA, but up in the Bay Area for school right now.
  8. It can go somewhat beyond that. As their employee, they might just be strictly liable for his actions if certain things can be shown. I'm not sure if they're going to make that argument but the jets could be on the hook even if they didn't terminate them wrongfully.
  9. For the most part, yes. What's your point?
  10. On what planet has Kelsay been anything but utterly replaceable during his stay here?
  11. I'm in the middle of finals for law school and I 100% missed that obvious joke! Well, at least someone is better for it if they didn't know that difference before!
  12. I'm not sure if you're asking me, but if you were, yes. I'll try to explain. In a criminal trial, a defendant can invoke his 5th amendment right to silence. If he does this, a prosecutor MAY NOT ask the jury to infer from his silence that he is guilty. The jury will be instructed that his silence has no bearing on the case, and they must come to a verdict based on any other evidence admitted into the trial. In a civil trial, the opposite is true. What that means is, Favre may choose not to testify, or if he does, invoke the 5th amendment to not answer questions that the plaintiff's attorney may ask. In this case however, the plaintiff's attorney IS allowed to ask the jury to infer wrongdoing based on that. Basically, in a criminal trial, if the prosecutor says "Did you shoot the victim", and the defendant invokes the 5th, then the jury is not allowed to consider that as evidence of whether or not he did. They must use other evidence brought into the trial (e.g., fingerprints, dna, bla bla). In a civil trial, if the plaintiff's attorney says "Did you send a picture of your penis to my client without her permission", and Favre invokes the 5th, then the jury IS allowed to take his silence as evidence that he may have done so. Even if he doesn't take the stand under the idea of the 5th amendment, the plaintiff's attorney can essentially say "look, he won't even get up here to dispute our facts personally, something's fishy here."
  13. Sort of, but as this is a civil suit, should Favre choose not to testify the plaintiffs can argue that this silence is evidence of his wrongdoing. In a criminal trial that wouldn't be the case. As for the question as to why the jets would be liable for Favre's indiscretions, aside from the wrongful termination aspect they can likely fashion a pretty legitimate argument that as a jets employee they are liable for his actions.
  14. That's what I was getting at. He fits what we run very well. Quick throws and he gets YAC. I don't think anyone really knows anything about any player drafted past RD 2, including every NFL team. Based on who and where they scouted heavily they wanted this guy. Watch this, well spoken kid, good genes (track family history), and wants to win.
  15. Well spoken, seems like he's got the fire. I'm liking this pick more I look into this kid.
  16. FOR EVERYONE WHO IS WORRIED ABOUT HIS SUPPOSED DISLIKE FOR GOING OVER THE MIDDLE WATCH HIS HIGHLIGHTS. Seriously, half if not more of the throws his way are on routes right into the thick of the LB's. He does fine, and doesn't shy from contact. On top of that he is very clearly quick beyond belief and gives CB's fits. Draws PI's like crazy. This is a solid pick.
  17. The two highlight videos I saw he ran plenty of routes across the middle, in traffic, and caught them. He fumbled once but also got plenty of YAC in others.
  18. He was drafted for what he does after about the 2 minute mark of this video. I can live with this pick.
  19. I read somewhere his cap hit is approaching 10. That's a huge cap hit. I can understand the Texans position, especially cause they have Barwin to resign and Meco's production dropped in the 3-4.
  20. We released him after he retired. We no longer retain his rights, and we'd have to sign him to a new contract if he wanted to come back.
  21. Since he flew in here he has been scheduled to leave for another "visit." Don't worry so much, this is just PFT regurgitating something that is already known. This is the same thing as La Canfora saying Williams wasn't gonna sign Tuesday night. They're meaningless reports to get website traffic. There's nothing new or of substance there. He's been visiting with us for 2 days, and his fiancee was flown in today.
  22. Why is everyone getting all riled up? From the very beginning the rumor mill has said he had a "visit" scheduled Thursday with another team. That team has never been identified, and things have been going well with Mario here. PFT is just generating some talk, it's regurgitated crap with no substance. Just like that LaCanfora tweet on Tuesday.
