I still think that the delay is because they are still negotiating a medical settlement between him and the team. Big Mike is on the books to receive $5.5 million in salary and bonuses for being on the team, he just isn't going to walk away from an amount like that, especially when he looks at the long-term needs this injury might present.

The team is on the hook for $3 million in dead cap space if they cut him. I'm thinking that to get a retirement out of him, the injury settlement should be in that neighborhood.

But I honestly know nothing about what is going on behind the scenes. Just pure speculation.

mb NFL should legalize cannabis already

not the nfl aren't total poo heads, but they kinda already have. 

as long as you don't piss hot at the combine, you'll probably never be tested. 

they like to use it as a stupidity test for new draftees. "hey this is the most important moment of your life don't get high for two weeks."

That is shocking and sad.
 
Is there a doctor in the house?  What in the world could all those meds be?

One is for migraines for sure, one might be Clonazepam (seizure meds also used for anxiety). Not a doctor so couldn't guess the rest. Some of those bottles look empty so he may not be taking a pill from each bottle everyday.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
