With one day to spare.. nothing like waiting til the last freaking minute.

Please stop, as I read your comments I hear my wife's whine voice. :icon_smile:

---

LOL... my goal here is to speak of it until it is resolved.. no more comments such as that.. ;)

I wanted to play Hazer for a day.. :lol:

Tell everybody involved to stay at the friggin' table and do the Raji deal at the same time.

Same agency, same agent.

That should happen.. dropping contracts like bowling pins.

---

Who cares if it is last minute. Trust your team that by Saturday morning Raji is there with a contract laying out offensive line players in practice.

---

TRUCK YES! One left!!

---

Agreed, this is one the my hopes for the CBA negotiations.. that this whole process is organized and these aren't issues going forward.

Is the sky falling yet?

Seriously, nobody will forget to play football if they're not there by Day one or two or three and so on. The best thing for both sides is to get a deal done that both sides like and not rush a deal. If you rush it, then you have to deal with an unhappy player three years from now.

Matthews signed today and Raji will likely sign within the next week if not sooner. I don't see a problem with Russ Ball's negotiation tactics nor do I see a problem with Raji's actions throughout this.

There is no problem. Not yet anyway and I personally don't see a problem occuring anytime soon.
