rsxfirefighter replied to Astrobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
When i switched sectors in my company, my former sector boss tried for resign me.......but i refused to sign paperwork to the effect saying that i wasnt resigning, i was transferring.. So people do try to resign you.. :-P -

Then, an overthrow. Edit: Dang Lothar...you got me as i went back to copy the post

Cool observation as a Bills fan

Can't be true...heard he only traveled shirtless on bicycles... -
Might be something to do with the Bill Polian Hall of Fame article in the Buffalo News. He states that Hull and Tasker both deserve to be in the hall too.

This would be a gamble as they would allow the other teams to put a waiver claim on him and if he passed through that portion he would be essentially a Rookie Free Agent and allowed to sign on any team's practice squad... But still surprised they invested a pick (even if it was a 5th) on another OL after drafting 4 this past year.

Joe B.: EJ underthrows Hogan.....EJ Overthrows McCoy......read my latest article @ ite.com/afadf/

Was just using it as an example. My personal opinion of the situation was money exchanged hands to provide some type of advertisement. However, I do not believe the Flag Unveiling and Salute to Troops was what the money for. I feel it was for the advertisements in and around the stadium and the participation in the Coaches honoring. Reasoning behind my beliefs is that I find it hard a few teams collected money and others did not when they all were participating in the Flag Unveiling and Salute to Troops portion.

This whole "Breaking Story" had me laughing from day one. From my understanding, this money was spent on Sponsorships. This had nothing to do with "Honoring Vets" or "Salute to Soldiers". Just with any other company, sponsorship money came with advertisements. Verizon, Bud Light, etc all do it. They pay money, their name/logo gets blasted. I felt this was the case with the National Guard and now found an old article that talked about a true "Sponsorship". http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-2/Bills-and-National-Guard-announce-partnership/8901b292-43a5-44be-91d5-ba4f678c81ca This just talks about 1 little portion, but I can safely assume there were similar deals to cover the other money for advertisement portions. This deal in 2011 (Ironically we got $29k from Air Force and spent at least $22k on the 11 week program to coaches) probably led to similar and larger types of advertisement deals/partnerships. http://www.sponsorship.com/IEGSR/2012/02/21/Despite-Budget-Cutbacks,-U-S--Armed-Forces-Remain.aspx http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000092380/printable/nfl-teams-to-honor-armed-forces-in-salute-to-service-campaign All this has been mentioned in the past, however no one decided to put 2 and 2 together until the Financial numbers were released.. When something is a sponsor, money changes hands...

At SF Roman watched archival tape of Bill Walsh
rsxfirefighter replied to stevewin's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Cough...Cough...Hackett...Cought..Cough... Heard that one before... Really hope this is totally different and that Rex allows the OC to call what he feels needs to be called....if there is any truth to the player rumors that Marone sabotaged Hackett's game plan before game day with his own. -

What usually happens is that the team verbally agree on a multi-year framework. Player signs the tender, and then in a month or two agree to the new multiyear contract. By doing this, it frees up the Transition Tag to be used by the team the next year. If they match a multiyear deal or agree to a multiyear deal while player is tagged, then they lose that tag for the remainder of the contract.
