It almost looks like a pair of head hunters there.

It's a bit boring when they all have the same cap hit. Olafsson's the only obvious one for the paper transaction since he's the only ELC with a lower price tag. It's much more fun when someone like Dahlin's salary just happens to be equal to the exact amount they need.

Calling that a tackle is laughable. Kane tripped after the linesman grabbed him. He's doing his job. I get the feeling that once Kane watched that replay, he shut up pretty quickly. It's best to stay quiet and hope the whole thing goes away. A clear video of a two hand slash across a linesman's thigh is not a good look for any player.

I don't know if that's the biggest crime or the damn size label they put on any replica. If I ever bought one, my first move would be to remove that.

I can't stop reading this sentence. I don't know whether to laugh or to cringe.

There's a ton of money in having a villain. The sheep continue to watch in hope that the villain finally gets theirs. Unfortunately they don't realize that this day is never coming.

That has to be it. I'm pretty sure he did connect with the linesman there and if that's the case, I'm perfectly fine with an ejection. It's only preseason, there's no point in letting it get too crazy.

They'll work "home" into the title like they have with the first two.

I’d be curious to see if any other team has played three winless teams so far like NE has.

Is that his salary in the final year? No raise is required in the qualifying offer if the previous year's salary is over $1 million.

I was actually a bit surprised when I looked up her age. I knew it would be close, but I figured she was a couple years older than me. She's been around for so long at this point, so I can see why I thought it. Either way, too many things lately help me to realize I'm closer to the old group than to the young group.

Middle aged? She's younger than me and I wasn't aware that I've quite hit that label yet.

3 weeks into the season and the Bills have still played more games at the Meadowlands than the Giants have.

And he gets a 7 year extension.

The tax thing is going to factor into the team's argument for a contract, but I'm not sure why the player's ultimately are willing to take that discount. People always want more, it's basic human nature. If I can get $10 million, I still want that number with or without the different tax rates. I can understand a player here or there acceping the lower salary because it helps to build a better team, but to get every single guy to sign up for that? I have no idea how you can manage to get that many people on the same page. I'm a bit surprised that every single elite player on that team doesn't have a no trade or no movement clause.

Looks like a tap on the thigh to me.

I just had a carrot that was shaped exactly like a crab claw.

Unless they were throwing some money on the side, like say investing in a company he owns (I've heard that one about a certain QB that we all hate).

I've been going authentic for about 10 years or so at this point. I've bought maybe 3 over that time, so I'm not too worried about the price tag. It also helped that my birthday was a couple weeks ago and a few people gave me checks. The quality on these adidas ones is definitely a bit different than my others, which I want to say are CCM, but I'd have to look. It's definitely a bit lighter than the previous ones. It's also cut a bit different and as a result, feels slightly smaller. That'll be one thing to keep in mind for anyone worried about the fit from an authentic. I know you were looking for quality of the replicas, but obviously I can't comment on that.

I'm too lazy to dig up any links, but he was definitely AHL eligible. I seem to remember a quote earlier in the summer from Botterill that they preferred him playing in Barrie instead of the AHL, so that's where he was going. The one thing I'm not completely sure on though is that since he's not subject to the transfer agreement, they should be able to call him up if they really wanted to. While I do agree with your statement about him being there until the season's over, I don't believe that there is anything legally holding them to that.

The one buffalo link above. I went Eichel to add to the BU collection.

https://shoponebuffalo.com/collections/jerseys I see pretty much every option available there, a few different player names and then the custom option. Even watching on a tiny screen, I felt the collision with the DB.

I just watched the condensed highlights. That long Knox reception late was great. I can't remember seeing a TE capable of something like that on this team in a long time.

Just about the only thing left here to make it any more crazy would be if Brown comes out and says the whole scam to get out of Oakland was Rosenhaus’ idea. Just imagine the next level media circus with that one.
