Something to consider

I'm starting to think Luck isn't coming out.

I have no feeling one way or the other. Resigned to the fact that we'll find out when we find out.

I Maybe he wants to do what he loves and that ain't football. It's not so crazy to go to school play football get a degree then go into that field you studied your ass off for. So don't judge him if not only does he stay for another year, but doesn't even play professional football. Sometimes there are more important things than money.

Actually, people who know him say he lives, breathes, eats and sleeps football.

On the bright side, if we can pick Cam Newton KT will shut up for a few months...:lol:

Oh, KT will never shut up, drafting Cam won't change that. As surely as the sun will rise tommorow, KT will hop on here and call everyone racist douchbags out schilling for the man. And I, for one, finds that oddly comforting.

Shhh...We're all trying to repress those thoughts.
same here...although i have left that as a possibility, that and the idea that we might trade down. in case of no luck i'm really hoping newton.

this will be a tough week or so and even if he decides to come out, i still don't completely trust the FO to screw the opportunity up. i won't feel good about much of anything until the new coach is hired and the draft is over. until then it's all hopes and dreams and ulcers.

that would be a benefit in itself, but i still expect he'd find something to complain and pull out the race card about.

    • Yep, like I said, I don't mind guaranteeing them money, but make the contracts smaller amounts in order to minimize cap implications. I don't know about "half," the actual amounts, whether more or less than half, would have to be determined by the NFL and NFLPA (which will probably be highly contentious, if not "impossible").  I'm just for whatever leads to the best product on the field while also unaffecting my wallet. As an aside, the NFL owners are greedy bastards in my estimation. They're trying to keep a larger portion of the pie, but players' agents are greedy as well, and they've sewn seeds of greed among the players. It's not all their fault; we all know what our society has evolved into, but the NFL wants a bigger piece of our smaller pocketbooks and refuses to "negotiate" with us (that's why we don't have cheaper and more reasonable à la carte options to view games that they're gradually trying to migrate to paid TV), so fu<k 'em. And then on top of that we have guys trying to water down the product even more by feeding greed. Change the way things are done so that we can at least see players prove themselves on the field without throwing wrenches into the engine that pays guys that have proven they can play on a pro level.
    • So if one of the parents wants to buy the theatre group or the band lunch they should get banned?
    • OK, I didn't realize this was about high school, but...if I'm spending my personal money trying to help some kids out, then no one is going to tell me how to spend my money. I get enough of the government spending my money--allocating my tax dollars--to children who don't really need anything, and now they're trying to tell me how to spend my personal money? Sure, there are many other issues to consider and rabbit holes that we could go down due to ethical concerns because it concerns kids, and the need for transparency is extremely important, but maybe as opposed to trying to stop kids from benefitting in darkness, we need to open up the blinds (and blinders) a little bit so that they can benefit in the light. I get where you're coming from, but this is a loaded and layered issue, and I'm just trying to give you some food for thought.
