that is what I was going for. lol FYI: I live in an area of N ILL that the Cheddarheads just up north derisively refer to as Flatlanders. Ref to our area that was scrubbed pretty flat due to glaciers and the SW area of WI the glaciers went around and left it pretty hilly in comparison.

Marrone went for 2 up 31-12 with 25 sec to go vs Jets
cba fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
every time I hear of this being done. I can't help but think of the time Marinos Dolphins went for a meaningless two point conversion back in the day when the conversion just was implemented. Of course they ran it and the Dolphins RB had his knee bent backwards and I believe had a complete dislocation with ligament damage. Out for year and he was never the same again. Sad as hell. -
no it's not flat. It is round. Like a plate. lol

Yes that was applied to this years cap. Not sure why you are asking that. I agreed with that as my post basically said: all contracts are applied either earlier or later depending how the contract is executed and finished and money is spent either earlier or later depending on the terms of the contract in relation to the cap rules IE: sign bonus etc etc...…..and over the long haul all teams spend the same total as the salary cap is set. Fluctuations would be as teams have prorated contracts come due due to trades and cuts and sign bonuses etc etc.........some teams spend more cash yearly due to sign bonuses but then that is applied to a latter salary cap year and is why teams spend more than others some years and less in others. It all evens out over the long haul. Example: If NFL decided the salary cap would be abolished in 10 years. All the teams would have to spend all the accumulated surpluses they have built up by then. At the end of the cap all teams would have *spent roughly the same amount over the salary cap period.(*not to confuse but they all must spend at least 95% of the cap. So there is a little leeway for frugal teams to pocket a little cash like Ralphs Bills and Browns Bengals did all the time) Yes there were many better options available for a 3.5 mill salary cap hit for Corey Coleman. Better options costing little would have been Streater and Reilley and Kerley. And really any low cost option would have been better than a 3.5 mill cap hit for nothing to show right now, if you are going to cut him so soon. If you make that kind of cap hit investment you give the guy longer than a couple of weeks to develop. Of course that is easy to see now that he has been cut by Bills and we have the luxury of going back in time to make that statement. At the time it seemed like a good chance and myself after making that investment I would not have cut him. I would have let him develop for half to a whole year before cutting bait. Especially since Chris Brown not so eloquently explained he is not a book learner and needs physical reps to understand.

They must keep money back for injury replacements, if the right player comes available, and strategic players extensions. They can also carry it over for next year. But I am off topic. Dickelyjones asked "did it come at any costs besides ownership's pockets?" Yes it did. My point is it has nothing to do with money coming out of owners pockets. All contracts and player salaries are fixed to the salary cap over the long haul. Only thing that changes is sometimes the cap is spent earlier than the year it is applied and spending it in any year reduces money available to improve the team in said year.

Mike McCarthy calls Allen a 'stud'
cba fan replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think he was flying with the wind there so his ground speed was increased accordingly. He seen a TD in his vision and he wanted it. AllenAir now boarding at gate 17 -
correct, since roughly half say they are in collapse and half say they will go on the big win streak and sail into playoffs.
-
and who have the Pats beat? Lowly bad playing Houston. and lost to bad Lions and a Jags team that could only score 6 pts on the Titans. The signs of the collapse are here. This could be it if we are lucky. Their roster is a bunch of Andre Holmes and Ramon Humber type perennial back up players and many of their young guys/drafted guys are on IR. They have a WR corps almost worse than Bills.

If you won't spill the beans I know Darby will tell me. -
Met the mother of a current Bill this week
cba fan replied to Thurman#1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah that was a stretch to get my logo question in. Still think crimson tide is good name but it is a wave or tide of crimson coming in. They should have a logo related don't you think.?? Or have the red elephant riding a wave or running in a tide. And if the elephant is grey why are they using it as a historical ref to the first nickname red elephants? -

cba fan replied to Thurman#1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
you don't? lol then how do you explain rooting for a team called Crimson Tide with an elephant as the logo? Did said elephant eat a lot of red fruit/berries? serious question on that elephant. I know the Red Elephants reference but it does not match Crimson Tide reference in the rain game that gave them their official nickname. Shouldn't they choose one? A big red crimson wave or some such. I do like the historical reference though. -
would love to see it also. Who cares if Fish move up in east. Better than the Cheats any day.

Well, I hope he doesn't blow then. -

Nice story. Thanks. Funny how a year changes a players perspective. It is possible the mom/family you ran into was more excited about Lewis signing with Bills than Lewis may have been. At least last year.https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/10/buffalo_bills_attempted_to_sign_new_england_patriots_cb_off_practice_squad.html -
I would not do it for anything less than a 3rd this year, or a 3rd and 4th next year

Steelers listening to trade offers for Leveon Bell
cba fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No deal can be made until after the season after Steelers do not franchise him a second time. edit: team can negotiate a long term deal while on 2nd franchise tag again up to approx. July 15. Once he was tagged and the deadline passed in July 15 he can not sign a new contract now. Can only sign the franchise tender and play this year for Steelers or team he is traded to. If he holds out all year he is not a free agent next year either. That is why it is assumed he returns week 10, I think he needs 6 games to accrue enough games to have this year count towards free agency. -
Thank you Vontae, you galvanized this team...

Yeah that was refreshing. Coaches and players need to lose their **** more often on terrible rules.
