filthymcnasty08 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 It's on Bleacher Report and the Mods will not allow me to post a linky! Mike Freeman is the Writer. Pretty good article.....(really good for BP).
dave mcbride Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Bleacher Report is connected with Sports Illustrated now. I don't know why they're still blocked.
boyst Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Article ...I'm told by these executives that Incognito actually performed well in his workouts. An executive on one of the teams said Incognito was "excellent" in his tryout. He was in shape, personable and, in some cases, better than some of the linemen on the teams trying him out.Then, something strange happened. As Glazer wrote, "Incognito visited the Chiefs and the Bucs this season and in both cases, each team got skittish after numerous calls from people inside the NFL were made and no deals were ever consummated." Hmmm … "numerous calls from people inside the NFL." So is Incognito being blackballed? Sorry, since Incognito has said some horribly racist things, he might not like the word "blackball." So put another way: Is there collusion against Incognito to keep him out of football? It will never be proved, but I don't think there's any question teams are being encouraged not to sign him. Certainly no one in the league office wants Incognito back in football. Individual teams are different. They only care about themselves. If I am Buffalo I sign him and make the NFL do something about it. They already hate it and Roger Goodell, you can suck a big one.

If your Boss discreetly tells you not to do something or there will be serious consequences...you go ahead and do it anyway?
boyst Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 If your Boss discreetly tells you not to do something or there will be serious consequences...you go ahead and do it anyway? How do you think I lost my last job? Of course, the guy was high on coke and I suspended him against the owners wishes, but hey, it really doesn't compare. Pegula is Goodell's boss.

boyst Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 A big what? honey roasted turkey. It's almost Thanksgiving and I am sure he has a large family over to his house. Duh.
Alphadawg7 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Bleacher Report is connected with Sports Illustrated now. I don't know why they're still blocked. Yeah, Bleacher Report has come a long way and I don't think they should still be blocked any longer. I usually get the most up to date information from there before its anywhere else. I quite like the phone app.
peterpan Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 If your Boss discreetly tells you not to do something or there will be serious consequences...you go ahead and do it anyway? The bills don't have a boss. Besides, what is the nflgoing to do? Tell the refs to make terrible calls against us to ensure that we lose close games? That's already happening!
Buffalo Barbarian Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Article If I am Buffalo I sign him and make the NFL do something about it. They already hate it and Roger Goodell, you can suck a big one. we should do just for that (plus we really could use him; Urbick, Wood, Inconito would be a great interrior) If I was incognito I would sew the League.

I think we should sign hm, seriously. This offensive line needs his attitude, its a bunch of pansies out there. Our OL is getting pushed around too much and we need Guard help. Is he an angel, no, but the situation in Mia was also not as bad as once believed and Martin screwed him over pretty good.
HOUSE Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Oh no, he might say something harassing . Sounds like just what the Bills need . This isn't golf here, its NFL football Edited November 17, 2014 by HOUSE
Malazan Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 ...and the legend of Richie Incognito's abilities on the field grows..
Roger Goodell Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 The league office does not involve itself in teams' free agency evaluations unless the player in question is under suspension. honey roasted turkey. It's almost Thanksgiving and I am sure he has a large family over to his house. Duh. Yes, Jane and I will be hosting family and friends this year.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 No one wants their locker room poisoned by him. Apparently he refuses to remain incognito.
Gugny Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Oh no, he might say something harassing . Sounds like just what the Bills need . This isn't golf here, its NFL football I don't get the golf/NFL football comparison.
FireChan Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 If your Boss discreetly tells you not to do something or there will be serious consequences...you go ahead and do it anyway? You do know Goodell is the owners' employee, not the other around, right?
PromoTheRobot Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 The NFL probably considers Incognito a loose cannon that can bring more embarrassment to the league. Joe B. pretty much said RI was blackballed a week or two ago on WGR but did not give evidence of it. I doubt TP will stand up to the league so soon after joining the club. Also consider the rest of the teams in the NFL. It's not like the Bills are the only team in need of OL help, yet no one is breaking rank here.

I think the owners all know the reward of Incognito is not worth the risk of a PR ****storm, especially after this year. Which sucks for Richie, any other season he would've gotten a shot.
