can't wait to hear the excuses this year with all the sucky personnel gone and probably playing better than our future personnel.

try reading, then you won't ask a question that  has nothing to do with the comment.

The UNknown are UNemployed and there is a reason for that

They haven't been drafted yet?

But I thought Gettleman was going to fill holes through FA and allow us to draft BPA?

[The Huddler]

When we added Ginn we also had Smitty, Lafell, Gettis, AE, Pilares, and Hixon. Remember when we were told that Gettis and AE were going to contribute? What if King and Mcnutt are this year's AE and Gettis? Only now we don't have Lafell, Gettis, AE, Hixon, and Smitty.

Serioulsy Ask yourself, do we really want to have to depend on somebody who couldn't land a job before Lafell? And if Smitty was such a distraction, why is everyone jumping ship now that he's gone? You'd think it would be the opposite

I can't prove that Mcnutt and King aren't last years AE and Gettis. Only time will tell. I will say we have two different guys calling the shots here. One guy didn't know his ass from his elbow unless it was a first rounder, and the other successfully filled holes on a 7-9 team with no name Fa and then we went 12-4, and is looking to do the same this year.

Ginn and Lafell left because they were offered more money elsewhere. Everyone who has left have been offered more money elsewhere.

Who is to say a team is done with cutting/ signing in the first week of FA?

[The Huddler]

A bonefied starter could be cut a week from now, but we couldn't get him cause we spent all our money on retaining our old players, over paying them?

Its called value. That's what were after and it isn't gone the first week of FA.

Only thing is...the holes are larger and deeper

After the first week of FA, sure.

When Lafell gets signed, you're  pretty much shopping at the Dollar Tree after that.

Did you? You are using the past tense.  When do you think the roster has to be set?

As each day goes by your excuse is going to run dry. You do know that right?

we did that last year and found some really cool poo, like at dollar tree.

I don't understand what you are proving me wrong about

[The Huddler]

We shopped at "dollar tree" last year correct?

I know what I saw Gettlemen do last year.  I know logic and common sense. I know the free agent market sucks and players are being overpaid--something that you do not seem to get.  I know that the people ripping Gettlemen for not going on a spending spree are missing some key pieces to the puzzle, like who to blame and how well this man finds talent in the bargain bin.  I am guessing you griped about the free agents last year at this time.   12 and 4.
