So say Philly releases him outright ... anybody going to pay him 10.5M this year? Maybe but I doubt it.

Oakland ought to. Jets would if they could make it work with their cap.

Hopefully the Raiders will take him so he can earn his $$$ but be out of our division. As you said, the Jets may not be able to manage the $$$ part.

Oakland has had a good OS. Schuab will do well out there

Carolina maybe, did they ever pick up anyone to replace Steve Smith?

Roddy White tries to get out of March Madness season-ticket bet | ProFootballTalk

There goes Roddy White on twitter again

^ Dude better pay up, pretty lame how he's already trying to back out.

[Lotus]

Yeah, pretty classless of White to make that bet (even if it was one-sided) and then not pay up.

[Chico23231]

These arrogant guys always claiming "baller status" and when it comes to pay up, they always trying to back out.

Enjoy the NFL while you can since Mark Cuban says it will be dead in 10 years.

Cuban makes some good points though. Also nobody ever imagined MLB being dead and now its a forgotten sport

Cuban is spot on. Greed will catch up with the NFL sooner or later. We can already see the Thursday games are borderline dreadful. Then we have these games over in London which is a stupid idea. And eventually we're going to have 14 teams in the playoffs and 18 regular season games, plus some Sat games at the end of the year. It will be watered down by then. Who wants see 8-8 teams in the playoffs? I blame the owners cause they're greedy and money hungry. Goodell is perfect guy for them as he's their 30 mil a year puppet. Eventually the ratings will slip. They just can't leave the damn game alone.

And please, no one say, "well Arizona was 10-6 and didn't make it!" That's a bunch of BS. We all know more times than not that we're going to see a lot 8-8, 7-9 teams make it, over 10-6 teams. 7 teams in each conference making the playoffs is a terrible idea.

Cuban is right, the NFL is going to violate the basic principle of "supply and demand" (it's amazing how many businesses/governments/jackasses ignore this law). You're a poon if you think the availability/quantity of your product leads to long term growth. Evolve, change, innovate, whatever the hell you want to call it, you have to do something to increase your market share to avoid a plateau or plummet. The NFL is trying to do this by raping the core of it's product. The NBA sucks and is definitely not the model but Cuban is on point. He definitely wants part of the NFL though..
