  1. You're gonna have to show me proof of these issues with professional athlete's because I haven't heard about athletes losing careers over complications from COVID. These guys play football, every snap they take could be career ender. Using COVID as a possible career ender is really stretching it.
  2. Yeap, but these players somehow think COVID is an immediate death sentence. The older I get, the more I just become nauseated with athletes in general.
  3. There is a case to be made the opting out is NOT the best interest of his family. By real deal, what do you mean? % wise, Tre/his wife and kids are extremely low. If you are trying to eliminate all risk in life, how the heck would you ever live.
  4. Injuries happen during training camp.
  5. Not sure what you mean. If Tre is so worried about his family contracting the disease, he should be following strict lockdown whether he is playing or not. At least with him playing, he and his family will be able to get tested regularly unlike the general public. Lockdown and play = get tested regularly Lockdown and not play = not get tested regularly
  6. Ummm, the entire US was supposed to be living in essentially lock down since March. Not sure I even understand what he is trying to say. So is he saying his family hasn't been living in essential lockdown since March? That's an issue if that is the case.
  7. Another perspective I don't understand. There is a better chance Tre gets the virus hanging out in Louisiana than he does playing in the NFL. If he gets the virus down there, he is not going to have the testing he gets with the NFL. If he gets it playing, at least he will know right away he has it. He gets it in Louisiana, he won't get test results for days. Best way to protect your family is to get tested the most. The virus is everywhere, it's not like him not playing means he won't be exposed to it.
  8. It would really be a shame if nurses, doctors, and essential workers started opting out of their jobs. Baffles me how a professional athlete can opt out while others are truly risking being exposed to the illness. So if he opts out, is he not going to leave his house or see anyone till a vaccine comes?
  9. There is no cap benefit to cutting him now versus Sept.
  10. lol, ok buddy. I will sure stop because you told me to. Please explain why they would cut Long now when they haven't even started camp yet and guys are going to get hurt? The only reason to cut the guy now is to save money. Don't give me the whole nonsense about letting him catch on to another team. He doesn't need another team if he is on this team.
  11. Wouldn't be so sure of that. Long was expected to make 3.074 and 4.5 million over the next two year. I would think Winters is right around there.
  12. Seems like a strange time to release him, unless Beane has been given a financial mandate from above. With the new rules of carrying extra o lineman, you can have a lot of them on the roster. Long was not that great, but he is better than Ike.
  13. This signing should tell you about how the team feels about Feliciano coming back. They are preparing to not have Feliciano all year (which is really likely). It wouldn't shock me to see zero drop off between Winters and Feliciano. Winters career before Buffalo was much more accomplished than Feliciano and I believe in Bobby Johnson. I think he is a huge selling point to O lineman. The only thing that worries me about this move, is this team's obsession with keeping Ford at RT. He just wasn't good last year.
  14. So looks like I was correct with EJ Gaines opting out.
  15. Signings right now when we are at the roster limit always make me nervous on who is opting out.
  16. He had the surgery this morning to repair the tear. From what I heard, it was a completely torn and 2-3 months is extremely optimistic. This COVID is causing timelines to be fluid because the season may not start on time, but he will end up on IR and depending on when the season actually starts, he may come back in Jan/Feb.
  17. Much of St.Joes has been closed in recent years.
  18. I see the line now: Dawkins-Spain-Morse-Ford-Nsekhe Williams-Boehm-Long-Bates
  19. Evan Boehm will be huge now. Much better than Long. Completely forgot we signed him.
  20. Not sure when they plan to announce.
  21. Yeap, Long is trash. Don't know what Bills are going to do. Is Morse definitely playing this year? I know he has a small child at home.
  22. He has a torn pec and will miss season.
  23. You realize that hospital has turned into COVID quarantine and has saved hundreds of lives?
  24. UB is a huge medical school/campus. Children's is a great hospital too. Not to mention Catholic Health and Kaleida have a lot of facilities. Buffalo is saturated with medical in proportion to population
