Steely Dan Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 but but but...I thought he was throwing his nfl career away? If that fat ass shows up out of shape and takes a few weeks to get into shape his teammates are going to be even more livid.
jarthur31 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 This can't be...I read numerous times here that Peters is throwing away his NFL career? I feel sorry for your lack of reading comprehension skills. The public schools you attended must've been located in the ghettos.
slyng1 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3571273 Buffalo Bills Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters will end his holdout and report to the Bills on Saturday, according to multiple reports. Peters, who has three years left remaining on his current deal, is still seeking a new contract and hopes that by reporting it will spark negotiations. He sat out the entire preseason, with the Bills refusing to reopen contract talks with him until he reported. The Bills open at home against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. ESPN.com's Michael Smith contributed to this report.
The Senator Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 but but but...I thought he was throwing his nfl career away? Guess he finally came to his senses and realized that's EXACTLY what he was doing. WTF you think he came crawling back with nothing but his dick in his hand????
VOR Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I'm glad he's back. It will be interesting to see what they do about the fines. At the least, I'd want them to fine him one game check ($191K). But congrats to the Bills on holding their ground, both with Peters and Crowell. I'm still shaking my head on Crowell, though.
Lurker Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 What bothers me about this, is it seems the lines of communication were opened too late. If the Bills had done this earlier he would have been in camp and playing on Sunday Huh. The way I view it, the Peters' camp finally binked and agreed to speak to Brandon. One hand clapping doesn't make much noise.
elcrusho Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I just had a Rice Krispie treat... Kinda got the same excitement level reading this as I did eating that, And IT WAS GOOOOOD
BuffaloBaumer Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Huh. The way I view it, the Peters' camp finally binked and agreed to speak to Brandon. One hand clapping doesn't make much noise. not if you ask Bart Simpson

nucci Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Just saw this too! look at the post above with 6 pages on it.

Hey, someone had to go - they need the roster spot for Peters. Makes ya feel all warm about him as a teammate, doesn't it.
VOR Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 He won't get paid for Sunday. He won't be activated. Where did you read that?
nucci Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Hey, someone had to go - they need the roster spot for Peters. Makes ya feel all warm about him as a teammate, doesn't it. They have already replaced Crowell. Someone will have to be released when Peters is activated.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 But I thought the Bills would talk contract until he shows up to camp? Who wants to bet that the Bills either waive the fines or include them in his next contract, and by the time he signs, either during the year or before next season, it will be an enormous contract, the biggest in Bills history, and he will be one of the highest paid LTs in the game? Thereby showing that, although Parker and Peters were jerks, and totally stupid, and hurting his team, the holdout ultimately got him more money. Or, at the very least, didn't hurt him.
nucci Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Where did you read that? I didn't. Just guessing if he shows Saturday he will not play. Someone will have to be cut once he is activated and I don't see the Bills doing that right now. Just a hunch, nothing more.
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Living here in Orlando I envision being in the parking lot and looking towards the ralph and seeing the gray and ominous clouds dissapating and a bright and shinny blast of sunlight hit the stadium and looking at my fellow friends and fans and saying " We're gonna win". Go Bills and will be watching every week form here wishing I was there!!
