ISTHIS REAL!!!!!
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.
Interesting. I'm glad they're trying to send a message to the team, but I dunno If I would've chosen to cut Shaw... probably someone from the O-line.
Shaw sucks, Last year Larry Felser said that he heard that Shaw is always running the wrong or Bad routes! He did it once or twice during the Jets game. I hope it works out.
Resign our own guys!
The only reason to keep Shaw around was kick returns.
We have Clay Aiken!!!
Shaw? He's been better than Reed.

Cut Shaw?? Milloy must be out longer than expect or PP would be on the cut list.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
btw, he is a vested vet...his salary counts against the cap this year...$900,000 savings next year.

interesting!
It's after 1 pm. Did they cut him?
I bet he was boinking Donahoe's wife.
Good, glad their doing something and showing the fans that they know the situation. I'm gonna guess that Shaw said something negative in the locker room after the Jets game or something.
I'm sure we'll learn alot more in the next few weeks.
Impossible is Nothing.
It'll be no later than tomorrow we'll hear something. Shaw will vent to the media.
I wonder who we will bring in to fill that roster spot?
Fast Freddie Smith??Originally Posted by ryven
We should consider signing a 3rd QB for the Baltimore game. Bledsoe might not last 2 series' and Matthews will be running for his life.... and i don't want Losman anywhere near that beast Ray Lewis.
I wonder if there is any O-line players out there that could help us out. They would be learning on the fly, but it probably wouldn't get any worse than it is now
I would like to see a trade come from this opposed to us just cutting him. Although I really dont know what Shaws value would be he is a solid #3 even a potential #2 for a team with terrible WR's.
That would only be a guess Demon.. If I were going to guess I would say it would be a financial move, and mabe to let Reed know that It's his spot to lose.. I'd put Aiken behind him on the depth chart.Originally Posted by Demon
"Hey, I was always aggressive. I always had lots of energy, thats why my teammates on the Bills started calling me Juice" PLAYBOY Dec.'76
If this indeed really happened, I am not a fan of this decision. Why cut a 3rd string WR to make a point? IF you are gonna cut anyone, cut Reed! That would be sending the message!
