"An absolute STEAL at merely 2 million...."

Jesus, I'd be afraid to touch anything in that house for fear of getting it even the slightest bit dirty.

That, and the furniture seems pretty generic and mismatched. All that white would drive me crazy, though.

I also find it notable that he has all those helmets on the bookshelf in his office, with the Chiefs on the top shelf, and I don't see a Saints helmet at all. I'm thinking he's still not very happy with New Orleans.

Ray Lewis' house has more style, though what's the deal with those dining room chairs? And the ceiling would make me think that I'm living in a big beehive. However, a grand piano always looks good, and he's got some nice views.

You're right, that dining room table and those chairs would be history, as would those creepy looking elephants.

His laundry room is almost as big as our kitchen, lol.

He needs a big laundry room for getting blood stains out.

And yeah, those elephants do cause consternation.

In that case we would trade Flowers for him.

how about Kyle Turley? He's having thoughts of suicide, bringing him back should finish him off http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/92...cording-report

So, you've supported every win now move they made, but wouldn't support this one?

That about sum it up?

So just to recap for anyone who missed it -- Waters missed OTAs and mandatory minicamp, but BB stated those were excused. Then he was missing when training camp started, which was unusual. BB was, as usual, very evasive. Ultimately, he was put on the did not report / reserve list, and his number, 54, was given to rookie Dont'a Hightower.

It came out that apparently he was looking for either a raise or to be traded, or both. Rumor was that he'd be willing to play for the Texans, the team closest to where he lives, I guess. The Patriots let it slip (unusual for them), that they'd be willing to bump up his salary from the $2.5MM he was scheduled to make to $4.0MM, and thought that woudl do the trick, but he still never showed.

Rumor was he was hoping to be released so he could play, but fat chance of that.

Let me be clear -- he was REALLY GOOD in 2011. Played extremely well. Far beyond our hopes, honestly, for a guy that age who was thought to be on the decline. Patriots fans were very disappointed.

Pats have now released him. There's also this:

Of course, he has 4 months to get into game shape. Who knows what he's going to do. Disappointing that he wouldn't come back and play for us, but what can you do?

I'm not in the let's suck again and hope Andrew Luck II shows up in 2014, if that's what you mean.

I support the "start winning now and build a franchise that can sustain it" moves that I think Reid and Dorsey are working on. Forgive me if that's too much nuance for you to handle.

If you're Belichick, I guess you win games with 22 players off the street.

Nuance, my ass.

You aren't winning now with Alex Smith, who takes more sacks than any QB, while developing a line in front of him.

You're either all in, or a ****ing dumbass.

Dumbass.
