Yes, that was an example of tanking back in the 70’s. The Braves lease had a provision that they could get out of it if season ticket sales fell below a certain amount. So, they traded McAdoo to the Knicks for John Gianelli, some old socks and cash. The team stunk, people stopped attending and ‘Adios’.

Belechick just gets Buffalo players to grill them on the Bills playbook.

I saw one once. It was great to see. I hated to see McAdoo later in a Lakers uniform.

I don’t care that they got a 6th round pick, why trade with the Pats?

Baboom ching!

That definitely was a classic.

So, it looks like the following WRs didn’t dress/play: Brown, Beasley, Jones, Roberts, McKenzie, Foster (inj) Could put Foster on IR and someone who played today could be the 6th?

If you watch the sidelines when attending a game, depending on where the Bills have the ball, the ST long snapper keeps warm snapping to the punter for a punt or hold. I guess a backup center could be doing this but having a LS allows that player to have muscle memory on the snap. Otherwise, with a regular center, you could have those shotgun snaps that go over the QBs head.

Both buffalobills.com and Yahoo have UBs Cam Lewis as the 1st backup to Tre White. Am I missing something? Captain?

NFL players play fantasy football. And yet others watch dumb reality shows of people sitting around talking.

I’m sure most of the owners for all the major sports are greedy SOBs but the NFL owners come across as the worst. I believe they have the richest TV contracts and yet they treat their former players so poorly. They continually come up with ways to squeeze more money out of fans and to penny-pinch. I recently read that the Redskins are going to charge fans a fee of $50 to pick up tickets at will call. Then there’s the Super Bowl , which is a bonanza, where they charge the halftime acts to perform and ask for volunteers to help setup and tear down the stage. They can’t give some needy people minimum wage for an hour to do this?

That is one fat cat as your avatar. What are you feeding it, hamburgers and fries?

Despite your strength in wide receivers, I would not do Hopkins for Cook. Hopkins is arguably the top WR while Cook hasn’t been able to stay on the fueld

He was a headache.

Just looking at the box scores from this past weekend’s games, 12 teams had 2 punters kick so there should be a lot to choose from.

I still hate ‘Helmet Head’ Johnson just as much for his “I’m sorry, I thought this was the winners’ locker room” after his Dolphins beat the Bills.

He’s been in the lab, developing new plays.

C’mom, he admitted it was a stupid throw later in the sideline interview, and with his big arm, there will be plays he thinks he can make just like Kelly and Favre did.

Yes, the NFL is a business and McDermott has made questionable moves before, but when you declared Shady was your man and he and Gore are homies, can you take the risk of messing up the locker room and trust by trading him? This would especially be bad without a new contract for Clowney. Being already a playoff team I could see making a trade for Clowney to “Go for it”. This team isn’t at that point.

Could fleece them for Yeldon and a pick.

They have Chad Kelly!!

Play the full game, then cut him? Still would be decent experience for him.

Pre-season records and games don’t matter, but living in Northern California during the 49ers great run, they put emphasis on winning those games to keep that winning attitude. I saw a few times when they actually put starters back in a close preseason game, which was somewhat bogus, but for the most part it was “our 3rd stringers are going to beat yours”.

I seemed to end up with him every year. Just enough to give you hope and then mediocrity set in.

Duke could come down with a back ailment (wink, wink), go on IR at roster cutdown and then be available to return to the active roster later depending on how things shake out.
