THE ILK Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I don't think that's the Webster's definition of "buffoonery." I'm telling you the excuse that came out of Tannenbaum's mouth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6guVKTsmmBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 1. Tannenbaum and Denver agree in principle (verbal agreement). 2. Jets official Twitter and Facebook announce deal for Tebow. 3. Denver receives trade papers--written agreement. Trade papers specify no $5 mil clause will be honored. 4. Broncos refuse, release statement saying "Jets did not read contract." Deal is on the rocks. 5. Jacksonville allegedly in play. 6. Tannenbaum yields $2.5 mil. This is all fact. Tannenbaum basically said so this morning. Good luck with your homerific interpretation. grown ups call that doing business, and technically speaking the trade is still up in the air as tebow has not passed his physical. every trade is contingent on details getting worked out. tanny had the confidence to make the announcment based on the dozens of trades he's made. "trader mike" probably knows more about trades than any current NFL GM you left out the part where he said they reviewed the contract several times, and specifically addressed the salary advances, which is the point of this thread the broncos tried to put the screws to tannebaum with the bogus statement they released, and he WON by getting them to come down on the $$, calling their bluff on the whole jags deal any rational person sees that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Yeah, someone always gets robbed. Guess who? the guy who gets $600 in cash for something from his attic ? if you want retail price, sell it on line. cash is king I love the haggling. I can almost guess within $25 what rick's opening position will be. the #1 rule is always underlined, never give the first number, and the good sellers wait for rick to give a # and then they respond and they usually meet in the middle the old man is a prick, I would never do business with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
