flgreen Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 In view of the fact that Simms sucks, I guess it's McElroy. I'm kind of surprised by this I thought that Kinne would last longer then Simms, and make it to the PS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 You're from Tulsa. Even getting a shot to workout for the Jets is an honor for a turd like you. You got more than a " fair shot". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Ugh, I hope he has a plan and he's not actually leaving it up to an invisible sky man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitonti Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 /bitonti'd Tough but fair. I still hold out hope for GK, Brett Ratliff and even good old Vernon Gholston. Yes I'm an optimist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhhh dude, you're a UDFA. Serious? How about biting your lip and playing the "Appreciate the Opportunity" Card and another team might give you a shot.
