  1. We overpaid for potential, not proven guys. Hopefully, that will pay dividends for this season.
  2. I've heard that as of now, it is Butler's job to lose for FS. And I am not content going into the season with that. So I think that may be our biggest need. At least we have somewhat potential in Webster and Deloatch so CB goes behind safety.
  3. The way it's looking, it is apparently doubtful he returns to the Giants for next season.
  4. It was either this or no cap. I'm liking this better. With no cap, the Skins could get away with this and do so much more. I just want a realistic projection of what the new cap numbers would be.
  5. Well, FA comes before the draft so they don't know for sure in Deangelo falls to them. I think they should draft Lendale White if they don't get an FA.
  6. And it also screws the Redskins. Apparently, you've been the one not looking at the "20 posts directed right at me" for this. I don't think you understand the concept. If the CBA does go through, then the salary cap is in place. If it is in place, the Skins are fully affected by it unless it goes to an unbelievably high amount of money.
  7. New deal is better then no deal. If there is a deal, a cap would be in place. That would still keep the Skins in cap hell. Who knows? It really would depend because if there was no cap, we would've been put in the cellar for spending money like let's say the Devil Rays or if we spent money on players in FA like the Yankees. All I know is, we need this deal to come together.
  8. All it does is give us hardware and bragging rights. Other then that, it's not that much of a big deal. In football it's a lot different. You get the home games if you win the division. When you win the division in baseball, you barely get an advantage. Homefield even during game 7 in the playoffs isn't that big of a deal in baseball. Johnny is a better player then Crisp but the asking amount was too much. Especially when the Sox knew they could go out and make a trade done with an up and coming, younger center fielder that costs less and use that money to possibly fill the rest of Manny's contract, pitching, and more. And Coco may be just as good fielding, but that's not really saying much.
  9. I live in Union county and am a comcast subscriber. Is there anyway to look up if I get it or not with that info?
  10. I think that was a spelling error on blue jeans' part. I don't see any games on FSNY this season.
  11. deal may be close Prepare to be screwed Redskins!
  12. Exactly my thoughts on where we should go on this draft. My opinion of Cromartie is only going up reading the reports that have come from the combine. No way you can pass up on a guy like this at #25. 4.31 or 4.29 off a knee injury like he had is flat out unbelievable. If he doesn't fall to us, we should go WR.
  13. And he had leg problems last year too right?
  14. Never said he is going to fill the position up to Damon's standards but the fielding is easy to replace and in that ballpark, the guy you never heard of should thrive. He has a career .287 average and is a solid hitter. I'm surprised a sports fan with intellect of your magnitude has never heard of him before.
  15. Problem is, for going over the cap like 7 years ago, the Broncos only got their third round pick or something like that taken away. They got two super bowls out of it. Now, the Skins won't get a Super bowl out of this most likely but if they don't take action and stay over the cap and the CBA comes to an agreement, what's the penalty?
  16. It's not a Yankees message board. It's a message board full of Yankee fans but it is actually just a sports message board full of New Yorkers.
  17. Actually, yes. He's an up and coming player, playing in one of the better hitting ballparks in the majors, his stats have increased every season he has played and we all know the potential is there. So the answer is yes.
  18. Lo Duca is a decent hitter at least and is contact too. Matsui has all but reserved a #8 slot in the order if he's lucky with his play the last two seasons.
  19. I'm a comcast subscriber who has suffered through the last two years of not having FSNNY not coming with our package. The least we deserve is to have this network come for free. All I've heard is the network is airing March 16th. That's it.
  20. I've read articles regarding how bad it is and I am confident that Tagliabue will come through with the CBA. I remember back in the 2004 off-season everyone was saying how good the Skins were going but a few members were pointing out in the 2006 and eventually 2007 off-season, they are screwed terribly. I've been waiting a couple years for this and it is finally here. And I don't want this CBA shit to screw this either. Best part of it is, Skins have done virtually nothing in these past two seasons.
  21. And considering we had security of depth and solid starting out of Whittle, I think we got the better of that trade.
