Bucs have a cash problem?


Ja  Rhule

erm... so what?

doesn't really matter whether these guys get paid immediately for putting down their john hancock or waiting for the season to go by.

guaranteed money is still guaranteed.

edit: if the owner owns manchester united he won't have trouble paying these guys even with zero revenue stream from ticket sales.

You always give signing bonuses because you can prorate it over contract life and it's professional thing to do. When you don't, you got money issue. Even practice squad players get signing bonuses.

yeah, without the signing bonus to prorate the cap hit it significantly increases the hit these guys will have for 2012. Really hurts the amount of ammo you have to go out and get guys this year but hey, guess you've got to do what's best for Manchester United lol

Yeap, in soccer you have to buy players and you pay cash (upfront) and you pay big. Upwards $100m for 1 player. Manchester United midfield is old as hell... Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes... I see Manchester United spending close to $100m in soccer free agency. Manchester wants Sneijder $50m and Eden Hazard $60m.

    • So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk. 
    • Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
