enjoy being an unemployable hypocrite.

How's the house you're buying with cash coming? Mattel or Lego?

Haha, does this remind anyone else of a presser where a coach is asked a specific question and then proceeds to talk about the question in abstracts without ever coming close to answering said question?

Now let's see if you can do a simple exercise to back up your words.

God Bless you, Max. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year sir.

As long as my existence results in mean and nasty comments from you and your friends, I'm in heaven.

God Bless you guys.

So that's a no and you concede tagging Suh is not realistic.

You remembered. That means a lot to me. Nice to know I'm on your mind. God bless you, friend.

Of course it's realistic. The GM said so. You think he's lying for posture and that's your opinion. But if it wasn't mathematically possible, where would the need to posture come from?

God bless you. Merry Christmas.

Lol at the pathetic psychological ploy(s)... It's funny when someone thinks they're a lot smarter than everyone they're arguing with, when in reality they're about as transparent as a plate glass window..

I'm not sure if I am to be included among that group your are referencing but I've made no mean and nasty comments whatsoever.

I have simply ask you a question with regards to a topic of great interest to me on which you have offered an opinion that is different than what I believe the team is capable of doing and I've asked you how and why you believe differently.

How many times you gonna ask? Mayhew said it's an option. That means it's an option.

For the fourth time, HOW?

I have seen what Mayhew said, that isn't anything I have ever argued. I acknowledge that he has said that tagging Suh is an option. He certainly would not have said anything differently since it would have destroyed the Lions from a negotiating perspective.

Are you saying that your statements to the effect that we should tag Suh and that there will be cap room to do so is simply based on Mayhew's comments?

Ya. Cap goes up, guys get cut, contracts get restructured etc...tagging him is an option if the team wants to tag him.

I see. I guess I was looking for a little more substance rather than blind faith in the statements made by the very guys you ripped apart during the coaching search.

You made many references to their statements about it being the most attractive job and the inbound calls they had been receiving about the opening. I personally have trouble believing anything they have to say and am surprised to hear that you do.

I was figuring you had looked at our cap situation and believed it was possible based on your analysis. If the tag option being a realistic option is fed to us by Mayhew then is certainly must be an impossibility.

Maybe Max can compensate by cyber bullying Tim Twentyman? Look out, Tim!

No that's you, mr. Mega cap post guy. To each their own. Tim Twentyman thinks so too though.

Ok. But from what I see if you back out Suh's voidable year in 2015 that currently the Lions already have $119m committed in 2015 for players under contract. If the tag option on Suh is $36.6m that would take us to $155.5m. That's well in excess of even the very high end of the projected cap.

Who are we going to cut to free up that much cap space?

Not my decision, but we agree that Mayhew can cut whoever he wants it make space if that's what he wants to do.

What's me? I ask you a question and now I'm mr. Mega cap post guy? You are throwing out insults at me when I've done nothing of the like to you.

God Bless and Merry Christmas then you hypocrite.
