I would do whatever the opposite of this is. And rightly so.

It's a pretty good thing you made that clear, because it saved several posts' worth of bandwidth.

He could just purchase a pistol and aim at his navicular bone to get the same effect.

Reading the board makes me feel like someone is in some sort of alternate reality.

I tend to agree with this half of your post. I am not so worried about performance against the 1s given that other teams haven't had to face our full crew of 1s either (Watkins + Woods being on the field at the same time, for example).

It's a dick move but it might be warranted in this instance. Depends on how the team feels it would affect morale. There are more players than Branch on this team making mistakes...

I expect the "fact" that you can't compare EJ to _________ thrown back at you here. In 3…2…1...

It does sound like a plan for descent.

preseason wins?

We should trade the pick that we traded to the Browns for Ponder. They won't even notice.

Interestingly, preseason stats and wins do not count in the regular season.

In no situation other than a train wreck does a guy arrive in week 4 of the preseason and start. That's delusional thinking.

Orton, to me, is a unique case of a guy who has had a little more success than others. I wish the OP had framed it as Orton to push EJ or Orton as a #2, which makes all sorts of sense to me. I would back up the money truck for Orton and I'm not joking. I think he would be good for our situation, even though I really don't want him as the starter. He would have made a ton more sense than Kolb. In fact, he is the guy that OBD wished Kolb could have been.

I didn't argue that you were. I was discussing the post to which I responded. You won't find me arguing that things aren't artificially inflated, systems gamed. I'm not an owner yet, I stand to benefit from none of it, and in order to benefit as an owner, I have to half-pray for the demise of the bubble, which is in a sense cutting off one's nose to spite one's face because that will entirely affect the job market. I think we should all be ultra-concerned about the level to which tax-dodging foreign investors snap up luxury digs and real estate in our major cities as well -- and typically don't dwell there or actually put any money back into the community, the infrastructure, etc.

You pretty much said it all right here.

Posting a Breitbart link to prove something is about as valid as posting an MSNBC link to prove something. Save it for PPP. Notice that a lot of Silicon Valley power-brokers, whose politics can't be (and aren't) identified in the piece are aligning with those who support the water diversions. Anyway, I'm not going to discount this as a factor, but to cite it as the predominant one and to characterize it as a pure left/right issue, as opposed to one rooted in power, is silly at best.

Yeah. It's that "reason" that I am looking for. Seems… asinine? Near-sighted? Crippling?

Still don't understand why Fitz's money still counts on this year. Stevie's money… that sucks.

It does suck but I guess at least it's all absorbed this season before the great El Pegual spend-a-thon of 2015.

That sounds like a giant assumption for a man who has just been caught driving at almost twice the legal limit and has done a lot to sabotage his future earning power in the NFL.

"Honey, good news, I'm gonna be around a lot more!"

This is, I guess, where your pro scouts really have to have done their work to determine whether the guy has the desire to be a great player for years, or is just looking for a decent payday. It turns out it was the latter, it seems.

Wow. I know he walks out of the door having stolen a lot of the Bills' money, but he is not going down a good road. I hope he gets help from someone who cares.
