Not the first, for sure. But, one that has joined the elite society of those rare few that are so obsessed. Do y'all have meetings and such? Bet it's hard to get a quorum to vote on officers and all.

We don’t have any contracts voiding because the dead cap hits when they void. We extend our geriatrics because we can’t afford not to. You don’t get to be the oldest and most expensive roster in the NFL while flirting with .500 by smartly letting contracts expire before your players get too old and decline. Then when they do void its after they have been lagging for years and we pay more.

For context the dead cap hits will be $20 million for Michael Thomas, $13 million for Andrus Peat (if not extended), and $11 million for Jameis Winston but in perhaps his most brilliant maneuver as a GM in the past 14 years, Mickey Loomis set their contracts to void on a different day so they would not appear in Guidos figure.

How do you go about setting up one of those things? Thinking about www.MuteBakoSaint.com. Probably already taken.

I used google domains but it is being sold off and taken over by a smaller company which is annoying. I was able to create and host the site free from google sites. All very easy. Hoping it wont get complicated when the sell off out of of google is complete. www.extenddennisallenforlife.com is probably available for you.

No, thank you.

It matters not to me if we get a coach beyond Dennis Allen. The next one may be better as a head coach. I hope we don't take a hit on defense. But, I'm realistic enough to know that there's nothing I, or any of us for that matter, can do to affect any of those decisions. One thing I can tell you for sure is that I'm sure not wasting twenty bucks on a website.

Once again… and again… and again… A Fan (CUSTOMER) who believes that there is nothing he can do to affect the $ervice Provider’s deci$ion$, is simply a Fool, continually parted with his money.
