    Did you know??? Evans paid $20k for #83!!!

    Mark Campbell received $20,000 to give up number 83 to Lee Evans.



    All Shea would reveal was that he didn't get as much for the jersey as former teammate Mark Campbell, who made Buffalo rookie wide receiver Lee Evans pay him $20,000 for No. 83 with the Bills.

    "I didn't get a deal like Campbell got," said Shea. "Campbell robbed the guy. I guess I have to work on my negotiating skills."

      What about those who already bought Campbell and Evans jerseys?

      Pretty poor time to do it!

            But some people bought jerseys before announcement. I know someone with "Soup" on front and "Campbell" on back.

            Maybe they ought to use Velcro for numbers!

              There is a line in the Xmas movie "It's a wonderful life" When Stewart and Reed are walking home from the dance. The old man on the porch says "youth it's wasted on the wrong people"

              I would say after reading this that the old man on the porch was right. $20,000 for a number!!!

                I knew they had already switched. I just happened to notice how much he paid in the article regarding Kellen Winslow Jr.

                Excuse me, I didn't know it had already been posted.

                Chill out!!!

                    When did mark campbell get #83? Last year dave moore was 83 and campbell was 84. man thats a good chunk of change for not even playing in that jersey.

                        Turned out to be a $20,000 move. I guess it didn't have that much sentimental value after all.
                        Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                            Nobody should be wearing 83 like nobody is wearing 78 or 34.
