Whether you like the 'Skins or not, this is kind of funny. If you don't remember WKRP In Cincinnati you might not get it though.

Les Nessman:

"It's a helicopter, and it's coming this way. It's flying something behind it, I can't quite make it out, it's a large banner and it says, uh - Happy... Eeeaassster! ... From ... W ... K ... R... P!! No parachutes yet. Can't be skydivers... I can't tell just yet what they are, but - Oh my God, Johnny, they're taterskins!! Johnny, can you get this? Oh, they're plunging to the earth right in front of our eyes! One just went through the windshield of a parked car! Oh, the humanity! The taterskins are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement! Not since the Hindenburg tragedy has there been anything like this!"

Johnny Fever had faster reaction times after he drank Jack Daniels.

That was originally a Thanksgiving skit, right?  One of the funniest moments in sitcom history.

"I swear, as God as my witness, I thought Turkeys could fly."

Why can't we just have all of our highest paid players take a paycut and restructure their contract. If they are older players, they have already made millions and probably don't even need the amount they are making now. What would those guys rather do, have a bunch of guys on your team get cut and not be a playoff contender and have to go through a learning process with new teammates again, or would they rather be unselfish and take a paycut to try and keep most of the team together so they can keep on winning?

Also a rumor floating around Snyder will take the cash hit and draft pick loss of being over the cap....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

HA

This thread while long, is classic. Some Eagles fan over there is going tit for tat with Homo Art regarding the Skins and their cuts. Art continues to try to beat him off, calling the guy names, and insinuating he is dumb, etc., and the guy comes back and destroys all of Art's points as homeristic drivel.


Good stuff.

The players would rather get 'caked off' because that's all they care about. They certainly don't give a rat's ass about the delusional fantasies of their fans who think they're going to work for peanuts because 'they've already made enough money.' Jesus farging Christ.

From Art:

We have 70 players already under contract. Even if we cut 12 we still have 58. At some point you have to stop believing the taterskins will be unable to field a roster this year and simply acknowledge you and your ilk have had it wrong the whole time. And tonight when nothing happens with the taterskins not obviously expected in any cap circumstance, at least you'll have to stop talking and start paying attention to your better, smarter friends here.

You can't make this shtein up

i finally understand it, truely i do.  i finally understand the 'Art Factor'

'ill believe it when i see it"

Art's spin is that they'll cut a bunch of backups they didn't want anyway, then sign other players who were released at cheaper deals.
