bbb Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 ...I remember plenty of players being 'trouble', even without the internet blowing every little thing up In Marv's book, he was talking about the great character of those Bills teams..............Uh, not really.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Cool topic, lots of interesting thoughts. I think the answer, like many before me mention, is somewhere in between. If you simply pick character guys, you're missing out of talent that could potentially be a great value. However if you simply look to employ those will injury or behavioral issues, you run the risk of shortened careers and self-implosion. i think the pats do actually do this as well. The difference being they can recognize when it isn't working (I.e, Collins, Jones, etc) and can get somebody return value for taking the risk. Therefore, thy siphoned the success out of these character guys and unload them right before they are due huge pay days or are too damaging to the team.
Coach Tuesday Posted November 2, 2016 Author Posted November 2, 2016 I've never seen a definition of it other than it taking advantage of a price difference of the same thing on two different markets. Well then we're talking about the same thing. They're buying talent at a lower price because it's artificially devalued by the market.
bbb Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Haha - whatever. But, that's OK - the movie Arbitrage with Richard Gere had nothing to do with arbitrage, either.
