Fake-Fat Sunny Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 I'm a true believer that the salary cap is a must-know item in terms of truly caring about how the Bills are doing, but some of the posts on TSW really represent a monster that cap focus has become. It's 2004 folks. There is a season of play going on. The season after an initial devastating loss at home is a long way from being done. While an awareness of the 2005 cap level is key, the focus in some posts of focusing on making changes in the 2004 team right now because of potential 2005 cap implications is simply wrong-headed and won't happen anyway. GMs and players are correctly focused right now in producing in 2004. Fans should be as well or they are really missing out on a lot. Sure Moulds has an exorbitant cap hit in 2005 which may well spell his doom on the team for next year. However, his performance this year and the status of his health will determine so much about what the best way for the Bills to deal with this problem that though small consideration of this issue by fans is worthwhile, such considerations need to be small to have anything to do with reality. What Moulds does in 2004 (even beyond the TD and fumbles of Sunday) will determine what is the right thing to do here that having a set opinion about this right now is simply silly (unless you know exactly how this season is going to turn out for him and the team which if you do then head for Vegas immediately). it is falt out stupid to suggest trading Clements, Moulds, promoting Losman to starter or whatever. It simply has nothing to do with reality because it ain't gonna happen. The cap theory has some interest, but posts advocate changes not merely as theory but as facts that should be pursued. JJeeezzz. Some posts.
