    I think it is a ballsy move but it will cost them more then a 4th round pick. There are salary cap repercussions from this as well. The Jets were close to the salary cap and now will have to re-do contracts and cut players to make everything work. By re-doing some contracts it can really come back to hurt them down the road because they will not have as much money to re-sign some of their own players.

      Brett Favre is going on 39, and entering his 18th (?) season. He does not at all fit the model I was talking about, and you know it.

      But feel free to take a cheap shot anytime.
      Awwww....not my fault you don't qualify your own statements. This is what I get paid to do, so its more of a natural thing now than anything else. Great skill though to have.

        You shouldn't have had to qualify your statement Jan it is football talk. It was obvious to anyone that your aging scenario was talking about players in the twilight and not in their introductory phases of their careers.

          So football topic can be void of reason, logic, parameters, and filled with assumptions...well this board makes a lot more sense now then doesn't it...

          Its really not a big deal, and there is no real need for all the dramatics. I did the same thing in the page prior and got called on it. I responded with touche because he got me and moved on. Some people just dont like getting called out when they incorrectly state what they are trying to say. It happens, deal with it, or dont post. No need to be all huffy about it.

                I know the pick is conditional, but for the price it is a great move for them. They might have to rework contracts and figure out the cap ramifications, but they must have thought about that before pulling the trigger on this deal. It is not like they made this decision in a 24 hour window, this has been a possbility for 2-3 weeks now.

                I hope for our sake this falls apart and Favre flops with the Jets. At least, as a result, we'll be getting some additional national press coverage when we play the Jets.

                      Who the hell would ever name their kid MARTA? Also why would I put a name of somebody all in caps?

                      Im taking the train to the Capitol building, its the easiest/most efficient way for me to get there and allows me to use my laptop as I wait, or in this case now as I ride on the train.

                        or perhaps people just want to talk football without being nagged about their vernacular.
