If that's from @espn...I sure don't see it on their twitter. TV? Radio?

It's here:

This was the tweet that started it all:

Jermichael checks in with his thought:

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

This is one of the reasons you do consider signing Reggie Wayne:

Plus, he's smart and the kind of guy Aaron can trust. With the age of our elder statesman at 25 in RC18... what a presence he would be.

Reggie was hoping to be signed by Pats this AM...well it's afternoon in New England. Hope remains.

sounds like an agent trying to get his guy more money from the team he's visiting with.

Would he rather be there for "revenge" or here? Would he rather play with Brady or Rodgers?

Funny how Reggie Wayne became so relevant so quickly. As MR pointed out...guy caught 13 for over 200 against us a few years ago. I'm sure Ted Thompson and MM remember.

T.Y. Hilton spoke with Reggie last night and RW told him he was definitely playing ONE more season. Has one last shot to win a SB. Who is he going to bet on? Us? or...the reigning SB champions? Does he want to be along for the ride or a major contributor?...that very well could be the deciding factor.

He chose NE.

While I rarely get too much on board with reading what a player has to say, I think Reggie Wayne is a guy you can trust to not oversell himself. I think we're going to regret not adding a veteran like him:

Will be fun to see how he does in New England... if he tears it up over there it's going to be a bitter pill to swallow if we struggle.

PS: Your comments on VanPelt didn't "sound stupid" at all, but 100% spot on! A QB knows exactly how WRs are supposed to do their job and has insight into that a WR turned WR coach might not have

Mucky Tundra (4h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (4h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (5h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (5h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (5h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (9h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (9h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Wife of reason posted on the in/out thread on fleaflicker that both she and vor are in

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : This page was generated in 0.135 seconds.

Mucky Tundra (7-Aug) : Tbh, I can never tell the difference in speed unless it's completely shitting the bed

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : watch it!! lol

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : you're right, we never did leave, the site just went down :P

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I would imagine Dallas will resolve this issue with a truckload of money

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : Micah pulling a Myles with trade request
