OT - I'm bored, Part 2!

Both, but the Bills are in a small market that does hurt them a bit, that's why they had to make a deal to play in Canada.

Ralph Wilson has been upset over the way the revenue sharing in the NFL is for years now. It doesn't favor or help small market teams.

Perhaps it will be addressed in the upcoming CBA. But most small markets in the league are doing well, or at least have had success. Jacksonville, Carolina, San Diego, New Orleans, Seattle, Kansas City, Green Bay, Minnesota, and Tennessee have all had success and aren't particularly big markets. In reality, even Pittsburgh and Indianapolis are at best middle-markets. Maybe the Bills are even smaller than these, but good talent evaluation and savvy spending (which has been the Steelers' mantra since the 70s, for example) will overcome limited market size. The Bills haven't done that.

Now, there can always be improvements made to equity, but I don't think the current revenue sharing system is all that flawed. A few tweaks are likely all that is necessary.

But I'm going to bed. Later!

Thing is, are Carolina and Denver ready to give up on Clausen and Tebow already, if he does enter this year?

Ive heard Andrew Luck described as a "generational" qb ... an Elway type ... so if the Panthers go with him I could see the Seahawks trading for Clausen because Jesus Whitehurst was a flat out mistake

Hmmmm...

God no!!!! I'll take Whitehurst over Jimmy "turf toe" every day of the week. Clausen is (and will continue to be) a bust.

Daily post for me, I need to be able to stay up longer, because it seems the 3 AM discussions have heated up

 

[naslundfan19]

Whoo, what a game!

 

[ritari330]

Pisses me off that Ohio St. won, but yeah it was

 

[naslundfan19]

I had Arky winning, too. But I know it's more than that for you.

 

[ritari330]

Only good part is I only had a few points on this game

 

[naslundfan19]

I had 29

[Darkstone42]

That's awesome.

 

[naslundfan19]

Can anyone tell who that is?

 

[naslundfan19]

God no!!!! I'll take Whitehurst over Jimmy "turf toe" every day of the week. Clausen is (and will continue to be) a bust.

Agreed. Whitehurst looked good against the Rams.

My daughter is 5 months old and weighs less than 12 pounds.

Doctors are concerned something might be wrong.

I really don't know where to go from this, I guess I just needed to post it?

I'm sorry to hear that. Is she also not getting taller, or just not gaining weight? And if there is something wrong, do the doctors have a theory as to what?
