Yet is against trading Jamal Adams to a team that theoretically can use him a lot more than we can. If they can get an a OT or CB for him good, go ahead. But trading him for picks is stupid IMO. I’m against trading any players that’s good or even average for draft picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading a proven player for a draft pick is stupid. You’re getting rid of a good player (Adams) for an unknown player in the draft and with the history of the Jets drafting I’d rather have Adams. If they could trade Adams to Washington for Williams I’m all for it. It definitely helps the team. Trading him for a draft pick is a crap shoot. Yes, I know. Douglas is here now but I still think this team is cursed. Just look at how this season started. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're telling me you'd turn down a 1st round pick if it was offered? Wow. Trent Williams for Adams would be a good trade, but Williams is old, so they'd have to kick in a pick on their side too.

Watch what happens when they no longer make the Sunday Ticket exclusive to Direct TV. They could play in empty stadiums and each team will still earn over $250 million per year. It’s just a matter of how much they want to split with the players. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL is structured to take away the risk. This would be a better argument, but still a pretty weak one, for something like an EPL soccer team where there's actual pressure to perform and succeed. The Miami Dolphins owners will make millions off the team this year even if they're the worst in living memory. Bringing risk up in this context is pretty laughable anyways given it's the "entertainers" as you call them putting their bodies and livelihood on the line. I wish the Wayne Chrebet's of the world were compensated more for what they gave, all for our amusement. Meanwhile Woody and Chris can go f*ck themselves with a flagpole for all I care.

Billionaires pray for other billionaires to die or at least be outed as monster racists so they can have a small window of a chance to give the league $3 billion dollars for the rights to a team in states they wouldn’t normally allow their personal pilots to fly their private jets over and if any of these billionaire owners’ teams completely folded for any reason, these billionaires would write it off on their taxes and laugh about how the schoolteachers and janitors in that state will incur the costs of that lossX but yes the elite athlete making .000001% of annual revenue while getting his brain kicked in is the bad guy. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York Mick Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 A legitimate question not just me being a smart ass pushing people’s buttons. Who takes the loss when a team like the Detroit Lions a few years ago lose millions of dollars because they have the highest salary and one of the lowest revenue intakes? Does the owner of the Lions or is it deducted from a revenue share that all the owners get part of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each team spends their money how they see fit. Given the revenues and where the salary cap is right now, I don’t see how a team can lose money like the Lions did several years ago. Also, the REAL profit is made when the team is sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine Diggs’ beef is more about Cousins sucking and Zimmer opting to run an offense from 1954 as a result. They threw the ball 10 times last week. Ten times. And when you factor in that Cousins is fixated on Thielen, it’s gotta be frustrating for anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs-Jeudy-Crowder-Bell-Herndon-Darnold would be so sexy. edit: never happen. Bell on this roster still feels like a fantasy 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
