That was sudden.

I haven't really been a big fan of Al Riveron anyway, but now an old friend of ours will be taking some of his duties.

We sure he is our old friend after getting shown the door???? I guess if we keep getting hosed on replays we will know....

May as well start the conspiracy now.

Fair enough.

It's pretty much an annual event at this point anyway.

In similar news, RG3 is joining ESPN 

 

Talk about a guy who can pinpoint when his career spiraled.  He was never the same after Shanahan decided it was a great idea to leave RG3 in the 2013 playoff game against Seattle when it was obvious the part of his leg below the knee was being held to the part of his leg above the knee by duct tape.

He entered that game with an LCL sprain, and left it with a torn LCL, ACL, meniscus.  Brilliant decision, that one was.

I watched that game and that injury was horrible to watch. But I seem to remember that there was controversy before that game because Shanahan didn't want to play him and was told that he had to play him or am I having one of those false memory moments where I'm confusing different memories and mixing them together?

I don't remember that, but given who owns the team it is certainly a credible, if not likely scenario. 

I do remember reading there was some disagreement between Shanahan and others about how to use RG3.  It might have been sour grapes, but Shanahan's version was that "others" won.

It was horrible to watch.  I remember watching it with some in-laws from the DC area and hoping the game ended before something worse happened. Something worse did, and he was never the same.

I just remember there being a really eerie and ominous overtone, like everyone knew something was going to happen to his knee.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
