Players opting out


t96

Recommended Posts

Big wave of opt outs have come in today. Haven’t seen any Panthers so far but with the deadline being this Saturday I bet we see at least 1 soon. Chiefs starting guard opted out, our old buddy Star opted out, Patriots are dropping like flies —like 5 starters for them have opted out already. Post any other news you got, or thoughts.
 

If I had to guess which Panthers could opt out I’d say Boston is a possibility as he made some comments about not playing due to health concerns or social justice stuff, etc. Maybe Samuel with his heart condition. Otherwise, any older veteran is a possibility but none really stand out.

It’s a crap shoot really. It seems players are opting out for a variety of reasons...pregnant wife, new child, at risk family members, etc. 

im sure we will have at least one player.  

Yep. Opt outs alone can honestly change the landscape of the league a ton, maybe as much as in-season COVID outbreaks for teams. Even if Cam is healthy and balls out, this Pats team ain’t winning poo this year. Assuming the season does happen.

My thought is since we mostly have guys who are trying to prove they belong as a starter or on a roster we’d have less players opt out than winning teams with bigger names. Could actually be a benefit to us.

Looks like the Pats aren’t even going to have a chance at being good.

Not going to hold it against any player for opting out, but no surprise to see Star on that list.

where do you think cam gets traded.  one of their starting ot's already opted out.  if its true they're gonna have to trade him or say he was having trouble with the playbook, not enough time to 'gel'...

    • That hit on Stolarz was dirty was fug. Just came in and gave him an elbow on purpose to the head. 
    • Brindamour said this isn't the time of the year for making changes and therefore expect Nikishin to be a healthy scratch til at least two defenceman get injured. Yes I said two because ya don't make changes and there other guys on the roster who've played with the group in games. 
    • lol Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night. Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........ I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol) Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall. And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.
