Why do we feel compelled to pick up players just because nobody else wants them? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!11
sweet irony...right there. Trying using the same discretion when you feel the urge to create another useless thread.
I think we should show interest from afar. Then if he comes over to us pretend we had no idea we were giving off "that" vibe. Then when he stands there for like 4 minutes we should talk to Terry Bradway the whole time, and have him stand there and sip his drink. Then eventually he will walk away.
I was going to suggest slipping him a fake number, but you're right. It's best to simply feign interest and then play the whole thing off. The last thing we need is to embarrass him. How awkward would that be if he showed up to the same field one Sunday? "Oh, hey...that number you gave me..." "Yeah...yeah...well, I was in the middle of a move, and..." "Right, right." "I just forgot to give you...the right...one..." "Yeah...I'm gonna just walk away now..." "Thank you."
I just don't understand the fascination with other teams junk. If the Raiders dumped Russell there'd be a thread about picking him up too.
Yes...he's the missing piece. Any guy cut mid season has to be worth a look. Plus we only have the No.1 rushing O is the league...bringing in a guy past his prime can only make us better.
