'twas just nights before football

It's almost football season.....

Twas just nights before football, and all through the city

Every fan was dreaming of Kuechly and Smitty.

Their glass mugs were chilled in the freezer with care

Knowing that beer would soon be poured there.

The players were waiting anxiously for the start of game day

They'd been improving all summer, it was nearly time to play.

The mistakes of years past, had served as motivation,

And now they were ready to release devastation.

Ron was sitting in his office, making his final tweaks,

To get the perfect defense he so desperately seeks.

And Shula was thinking of all the weapons defenses would have to fear,

Knowing this would be far better than his time a Buccaneer.

Cam Newton was loading his mental chamber, staring in the mirror,

Looking at the face that all defenses would soon fear.

With Tedd Ginn and Smitty, Olsen and Dwill,

Cam knew that under his leadership, they could score at will.

When suddenly from a nearby hotel, a loud sound did blare,

It was little Russell Wilson awaking a nightmare.

He had dreamed of the Kraken, Star and CJ

It scared him to his very core, he did not want to stay.

While he was looking for flight back to Seattle, Coach Carol ran to his side

But instead of words of wisdom, he asked the diminutive man to hide.

For while he was resting, Petey had the same dream,

And was sobbing to himself when he heard little Russell's scream.

Pete know that last year was lucky, merely a fluke,

There was no way Marshawn was running against TD, Beason and Luke.

And while all the pundits on the TV were expecting Seattle to cruise,

Pete knew in his heart, that his Seahawks would surely lose.

Carol hugged his quarterback before he left, and kissed his cheek goodbye,

To leave back to his bedroom suite, and have a final cry.

The score was no longer his focus, he wanted merely to survive,

To keep the score close, and leave Carolina alive.

For years the Panthers have been down,heartbreak and postgame cries,

But soon all football fans will witness Carolina rise.

Betting against our Panthers, would be nothing short of treason....

Happy football to all, and to all a good season.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Right, so basically what I said in my first post about this last night. Tepper needs to use that big wallet of his in one of the few ways it can be used in the NFL given the cap.   Give Scourton a bigger signing bonus but not a fully guaranteed deal. Everyone wins in that scenario as if Scourton is smart and hires good money people, he'll take that bigger signing bonus and use it to make more money in the end over the next 4 years than if he just had his fully guaranteed deal and a smaller signing bonus.

      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
