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!
I'm not so sure. He's one of the best options available and we don't have a history of paying market value. So landing one of the 4 or 5 guys that are better seems like a low probability.
I wouldn't want him on the team, but really, he's just an *******. It's not like he tortured dogs, drove drunk, carried a gun into a nightclub or ran over a fat chick and fled the scene. I mean, he's a guy that gets paid to be meaner than the other guy that gets paid to be mean. If it blows apart team chemistry to the point where he's a net negative, that's different, but at this point I think he'd be powerless to pull that **** again. Nobody is going to take his side.
Its not worth the media attention he'd bring. He's a distraction.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

When do you wait for this "net negativity" to have its' effect?
His history speaks for itself. I wouldn't allow him to visit his malevolent personality on my players, most of which are younger than him and not able to deal with his particular brand of intimidation.
If that mentally damaged behemoth banged on my door, he'd hear a racking of a slide.
