They better

He needs to have a big year

 

[DJ Fieri]

Husband of the year right here fellas (and Mecca). For the 4th time since we started dating in 1999, I forgot my wife’s birthday when we woke up today. Got all the way to school, wondering why she was pissy with me when I left and fucking Facebook had to remind me it was my wife’s birthday. Not once…not even twice or three times. I’ve forgotten her birthday now 4 times. I’m in the dog house all weekend Fo sho

Bro, my birthday is Nov 7th. The wife's is the 14th, maybe the 13th. Daughter we have together is 21st.

Good thing is I have the date we got married on the wedding ring. I can't forget that shit.

We got a memory foam mattress and a topper we put on top that is comfortable as fuck.

I absolutely hate when I am sleeping in the living room on the sofa.

Doesn't matter. You don't just not pay a winning QB who get you to the playoffs frequently. I pray he walks and they have to start over again

Yeah, I got married on St Patrick’s Day so I could avoid this with my anniversary. In fairness to me, three of the times I was coaching football and I’m a different animal when I coached. I would spend 20 hours a week just watching film. But this year, I don’t even have that excuse . I’m a heel. Feel like shit (as I should).

He needs to be congratulated for not holding out in this modern era. He’s putting somewhere between 60-100 million guaranteed dollars on the line. That’s his life’s income. I wouldn’t take that risk of injury.

Nope not at all and especially not in this sport

I bet anything they taking him for granted and after a couple decent games last season think they could go cheaper route with Huntley......be a mistake but they plug and play their defensive players.....may think (incorrectly) they could do that at QB.

Hope he plays well, Tua doesn't (and I like Tua, but love Lamar's personality in handling the contract comments with the media) and Lamar says he wants to be traded to Miami. He from there.

Me neither but kid believes in himself......just 1 bad hit away from being in Alex Smith's situation though.

No way of knowing what is going on. He is using his mom for an agent so there may be all kinds of crazy stuff going on.

I think he is likely risking 200 million guaranteed. Hopefully not the case but he shouldn’t expect everyone to do stupid Browns shit.

2k23 released today. Anyone play?

You can believe in yourself all you want. Injury is an unpredictable thing.

Yeah thinking about it but I don’t know if I would play it enough. If I was involved in an online franchise I would be more active

I was going conservatively but you may be right. The total contract will be in that range. I don’t know how much will be guaranteed.

I saw something about being able to buy it and get the nba pass for 150

I know. That's why if they are offering 160-180 mill guaranteed he should take it.

If he wants a Watson type guarantee.....he's just being silly. But, I also think he has an idea of requesting a trade somewhere (Miami most likely) next offseason

 

[Shanemansj13]

Pretty damn good deal. Wonder if it’s the $100 version though. I already get all games so wouldn’t be needed but good deal

 

[Shanemansj13]

I might just buy Madden even though I hate the game. Just in the football mood
