Not surprised by TD... must say Ted Ginn being involved is a total surprise.  I wish them both well in this new venture.

And honestly, I wouldn't hate having Ginn back as a backup and deep threat next year.  Letting him go in 2017 was underrated in how bad it hurt us and helped the Saints.

I thought I was the only one angry at us getting rid of essentially our #1 from the past two years to give Russell Shepperd more money.

Amazing how many successful/wealthy athletes (former & current) make the entirely voluntary choice to vaporize a large sum of their own personal cash.

SMH.

Well they probably saw up close and personal the opening in the market for a football team in Charlotte.

Who knows what being an owner entails and what the financial obligations are. This seems like a barebones operation for sure. I mean http://carolinacowboyz.com/ doesn't even work. 

TD and Ginn are older and i would hope are past the dumb investments. But I would bet whatever investment they made will be gone in a couple of years. Who is going to watch arena football?

As an aside I used to do some work with the Charlotte Rage. Like typing up the play by play and we got to sit on the field. I sat in the box with some NHL announcers one time tracking data. I completely screwed it up but the paid me $100. It was entertaining for a while.

      Legette for Coleman?

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      That is a big HELL NO. As bad as XL was this season, at least he adds a dimension that the coaches can use for specific plays. Coleman is just as bad, yet adds zero diversity to our receiving corps. I’ll take the guy that at least cares enough to show up to meetings. Getting traded to a new team won’t change either of their work ethics.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      I don't think there is any real reason to amend the rule. If you do, the teams will just find a way to abuse it. All the Browns have to do is just interview SOMEONE to "get through" the process. Hell, interview Jim Caldwell if that's what the actual goal is, just to get around it.  Also, they have all of the candidates required for the Rooney Rule in Aden Durde and Nate Scheelhaase. They are in full compliance already. Scheelhaase is already scheduled for a second interview, for that matter.

      I don't know about the stans but he's at times been like 60 percent of the offense on a playoff calibre team. He put up 1202 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns, then had effing 102 receptions for 924 yards and seven receiving touchdowns. He touched the ball 413 times this season (an average of 24 times per game.) Then you have to add in that he's a hell of a blocker when called upon. Without him, the injury depleted 49ers in a hot NFCWest division don't make the playoffs at all.  If that isn't the Most Valuable Player on the team then who should be? The idea that it is an award solely for QBs is just narrow. Edit to add: Will he win it? No.
