Since Richardson isn't trying too spend on the team do we get a discount as fans?

Will we have too pay the same price for tickets and stadium food. Since his wallet is taking a break this year can our wallets take one too? If he doesn't field a competitive team do we have too pay competitive team prices? If he is not going too try for a winning team can we pay bad team prices?

Keep dreaming.

He is actually spending more money this year than he ever has. Eating Jakes contract is going to cost him. He also still has to replace some players so dont think he is being cheap. Know if he does it next year i might agree with you.

I don't know where you get your numbers. He isn't paying Peppers 17 million, is supposedly saving 12 million by dumping Lewis, Kemo, Johnson, Moose, and Jake among others (based on the observer article) which is at least 30 million less than last year. Jake's contract isn't costing much because he isn't paying the salary for 2009 and the guaranteed money will be paid out over several years. He could have escalated it by paying the signing bonus and voiding future payments but he didn't do that either. How do you figure that it will cost more money? Who has he exactly picked up to replace anyone?

We would've had to pay Jake either way, he's not spending more by any stretch. Jake was getting that money...period.

boy there are some over-reacting people around here.

oh noes....since JR isn't spending any money so far that must mean that he isn't going to spend any! REVOLT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol

While I'm not yet even worried about the team...I am glad Kool-Aid drinkin' rayzor is back. It was sad to see him turn to the darkside last season. :wink:

Here's hoping your over-posting, over-happy self gets to remain happy all season! :)

meh....i'm just happy that moore is getting a real chance this year, that we have moved on from jake and peppers, and that it looks like the FO is trying to shake up some things this year....no more of the 21 of 22 returning tripe.

i'm still very much on the "lets get rid of fox" band wagon but i'm happy that they are doing more than just sitting on their hands. trimming the fat or soon to be fat was a good and shrewd move that gives younger guys a chance to play and gets us in better shape if 2011 is locked out.

when they are screwing up and doing things i don't like, i'll start hating. i don't hate just to hate. not usually anyway.

Yeah but not that much iirc. I still dont think Jerry is going cheap. We will have to wait til the beginning of the season to see but I bet we will be close to what we spent last year.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
