You are splitting heirs and I think you know what I meant. Did you ever go to a market? Probably. What did you buy there? Merchandise. Sheesh. They have more income because of low costs. Revenue - expenses = income. If they raise more revenue they can increase expenses on players and still maintain income. Chandler jersey sales are a way to do this.

Geez dude you are making my point. I KNOW it takes time to make jerseys. That is why the production part of the business, otherwise known as players and coaching staff, needs to let the marketing team know AHEAD of time. Let them know that Chandler is a big part of the game plan. SO THEY CAN HAVE THE JERSEYS READY. I am not totally knocking the coaches because maybe they did tell marketing and marketing is the culprit.

Dude it won't be just Chandler it will be the whole team at some point if this keeps up. Anyway, when they move there it will probably mean a whole new marketing team that is on top of these things.

Are you going to give the profits to the Bills? Because if you don't sooner or later you are going to have to move to Los Angeles to sell jerseys.

Here's a news flash: You can't sell what you don't offer. :wallbash:

This was a great win yesterday ON the football field. I think we deservedly took time to savor it. It is only one game and blah blah blah. I'm ok with the ON field stuff though. Let's do our best to beat the Raiders. The thing that makes me wonder is the marketing department of the Bills. Are they trying to lose the team to another city? Instead of saving costs by cutting players like Evans, why not generate new revenues? After a game like yesterday, any savvy business would take advantage, but not the Bills, they just want to cut costs. How many Sam Chandler jerseys do you think they could have sold today? Thousands that's how many. That is new revenue that is right out the window. They might have been able to sell enough to keep Evans even. Instead, they are selling Evans jerseys at bargain basement prices and there are no Chandler jerseys to be found. Any good business has well integrated production and marketing. The Bills produced on the field. Chandler was obviously part of the game plan. They should have told the marketing department to be ready for the Monday morning rush and move some merchandise, but they didn't. Or marketing didn't listen. Anyway they got caught with their pants down like any dysfunctional organization would. All businesses have revenues and costs. Without maximizing revenue, costs have to be cut. The next time the Bills cut some stud for no football reason think about the Sam Chandler jersey snafu because it is a perfect example of why.

I don't think he would be off like that on a simple equation like 3+7. I think what he meant was: 41-34=8....10-3=7.....8+3=11. That is the most likely scenario. Any chance that post was made from Canada?

I'm still alive. I had the Texans. The more and earlier in the season you help the more your share of the $$$$$$$$$$$. Start scouring the schedule for good week 2 matchups. Thanks all. P.S. The pool is now closed but there were a few more entries before the season started. The final prize is $6,890,000, so right around what I thought.

It is impossible to spell suck without SU.

Her only problem is that she is redundant, but I can live with that.

Begging you for money? :unsure: Dude, the pool is only worth $6M. That's lunch on a Wednesday for me.

If the rabbit dies does it mean the super committee is pregnant?

I don't get why they keep making cruise ships with all of our money. If the economy is so bad how can more and more and more people afford cruises every time? I would like to see the booking rates for all of these ships and if the government bought it I would think you could get a copy of that stuff under Freedom of Information.

Must be a different pool but good luck in yours. There is nobody with that code name in ours.

This is my choice as well but so I add something new I will say the biggest obstacles for these teams will be : Saints/Texans

Beerboy made thread and is lying about the stakes of the pool. He is going to try to keep all the money after you guys do all the work. I'm not saying to give him bad picks but doesn't everyone think Vikings will crush the Chargers this week? Tell Beerboy and make it convincing.

Well he did accelerate and try to run from the police after being pushed. Maybe if he didn't steal credit cards for a living he wouldn't have cops following him. Did you ever think of that? It sure doesn't seem like he was trying to kill anybody, and the cops did not exactly handle themselves well, but for you to call this attempted murder shows a clear bias against cops. Give me a break.

All of these are probably true, you know why? Because Lee Evans is a good football player and would not have been dumped by most NFL teams.

So Evans was selected, just not Jones. To be fair it is fantasy football and you can't really tell. In checking the yahoo site it seems that Jones is owned in a full 1% of leagues where Evans is owned in 70% of leagues.

In what round of your fantasy football draft did you pick up Donald Jones?

Get a room girls, I'm try to make a few bucks and embarrass Beerboy at the same time.

Good to know. Thanks.

Pats can throw in stinkers during week one. They once almost lost at home to a Glove Wearing Mary. What is your code name in the pool?

Reading this thread makes it pretty clear that people will believe anything Buddy says. "We tricked everybody by playing our OT at DT so we could hide him." "Evans sucks and it has nothing to do with his salary." "We need a backup guard and the best way to do that is to cut your backup center, and it has nothing to do with the guys salary. In the NFL, you don't really need a backup center because centers never get hurt." All of that is met with:"Wow. Finally a straight shooter." Everybody better go look for a pot of gold because Buddy says he just shot a rainbow out his butt.

Is saying Lee Evans is better than Donald Jones proof enough? Geez.
