Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
I doubt it, but I am sure bf1 is.
In the end, there are only three liberal archetypes: The fools, the beneficiaries and the crooks.

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws,
to be led by permanent ideals -
that is what keeps a man patient
when the world ignores him,
and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him. -- Honore De Balzac

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
No. His career is at stake, so he is in no position to be faking an injury. Common sense.

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
I'm thinking he was fully healed.... maybe got through the physical just to get out of San Diego. Then as soon as he jumps on the field with the Bills.... "ooh ouch, my leg hurts suddenly".Draft Gabbert at #3!Comment

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
Makes no sense regarding the benefits to Merriman. Some ougta think before the words hit the airways.

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
How does him sitting on his ass not playing this year get him a nice contract next year? He's not BSing.

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
He will get picked up by someone no matter what happens this year. He does not want to play here, he does not want to get hurt playing here while he is being "rented". Merriman is very obviously playing a game.Originally posted by jamze132Comment

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
He might get picked up, but I think his value drops dramatically because teams will think he is still hurt. He'd be stupid to fake this.Comment

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
Yeah, GMs never talk. You think the Sabres can't trade Connolly because of his injuries? More there than meets the eye. If Merriman were faking, why do it in the first 15 minutes - wouldn't that be a little obvious?Originally posted by HAMMER

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
More blind Buffalo homerism above, he does not want to play for 1.8 mil and risk an injury that puts his career in jeopardy. Someone will pay him next year to come in and play and I guarantee he would get more than the 3.6 he is playing for this year. If he blows out a knee while being an 8 game rental in Buffalo he gets no offers next year.Comment

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
All he has to do is pass a physical in the offseason and he'll get a decent deal.
Some dumb team will pony up the dollars based on his name and thinking they can get the 2006 version.Comment

Re: Is Merriman Malingering?
No
He's Deroiding and constant injuries are the result.
This is why I predicted he may never see the field with us.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for witComment

- All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
