Kirby Jackson

Fair but he certainly wasn’t considered indispensable to them. He was sitting on the open market in the middle of April.

That’s fair and he is a very good blocker. By the same token Holmes is a very good ST player.

He’s a good athlete but he’s an absolute JAG. He’s Andre Holmes that did a stint with Tom Brady. He’s a back of the roster receiver that was WAY overhyped when he was here and especially when he went to the Pats. The same thing happened with Chandler and Gillislee. It was going to haunt us forever. The reality is those guys were no better there than in Buffalo (and in some cases worse). Hogan is a dbag that’s not a very good football player. He got a chance and carved a career out of it. A ton of guys though could have had a similar career with similar opportunity.

A JAG that was a Product of opportunity

Oh, absolutely

Yeah, I tend to agree. If the Bills are considering a QB though Tyree is the type of guy to take a swing on in the 6th or 7th. You can buy the lottery ticket at that point.

The local guys don’t count against their visits correct? If so, it makes sense for the Bills to talk to every UB player that is going to the NFL.

Devin White but would be okay with Hockenson, Taylor, Gary, Burns or DK

It went swimmingly. Thank you all for the advice

It’s also an avenue for the Seahawks to acquire more picks too. 9 may be a prime spot for people looking to trade up for QB. The Seahawks can go to 9 and then fall back to like 15 while adding picks.

Trade 9 for Clark and 21. That’s the equivalent point value of pick 35. Throw in a 4th or lower if needed. At 21 you can get Fant or Metcalf or Cody Ford. Boom, problem solved

Make the commitment on the other ones then.

Yeah, I don’t often have to do stuff like this but I actually have 3 today!! Obviously, I’m only doing this one but it is crazy.

I promise you that you won’t regret any of those shows. Ozark is another great show and is only a few seasons old so you can quickly catch up.

Honestly they should, but won’t. They certainly have a lot at stake here too. They are 2 of our 5 biggest accounts and the guy putting it on has referred me into 2 more just like them that I’ve been meeting with. Those other 2 will ultimately determine whether or not we hit the earn out portion of the sale. In a lot of ways, it is as important to them as it is me. Not trying to impress as much as not trying to come across bad. It is certainly something that I feel obligated to but that’s because I need to protect my earnings.

Candidate isn’t hot

Last question, suit or can I get away with a sport coat?

Oh for sure, the other host of the party is the Chairman for the Congressional Black Caucus (Cedric Richmond). He’s a power broker in the House. This room will be filled with influential people around here and I already have a few that I know I need to be introduced to.

Ha ha, you guys aren’t helping!! JK, I appreciate the feedback and that’s what I’ll do. Thank you guys. I’ll report back on it after.

This is kind of where I’m at. These 2 clients represent about 65%-70% of my annual income. I really need the goodwill (but they do love me).

That would be well beyond the maximum donation allowed ($5k). I can’t do that. I’m thinking I should do $1k but was kind of hoping someone would say less is okay. My fear is that I look cheap but at the same time this buys me nothing but goodwill. It’s important goodwill but I’m having a hard time justifying it in my head. Thanks Max, I think that’s great advice!!

Yeah, my client (whose niece it is), called me and asked me to come. He never asks for anything and it is a larger reception with all kinds of donors. It will be a very politically powerful room.

I have no idea why I come here for advice but sometimes I do. You guys are great. With that being said I have a political fundraiser to attend tomorrow. The suggested donation levels are $250, $500 or $1,000. It is being put on by my 2 biggest clients and the candidate is a niece of one of them. She’s already in office though. I can’t expense a political donation so this one is coming out of pocket. Whether she remains in office or not has no bearing on me personally. It is 100% about doing something for these 2. Do I need to go to the $1K or can I get away with $500 without looking like a cheap @ss?
