Why? Are we losing a really good starting linebacker? He's a solid special teamer but nothing more.

We will be just fine.

Short Memories make for Short Lives (Playoff Lives)...

We were awfully thin at linebacker at the end of last season - experienced linebackers like Stupar do make a difference...

I will agree Stupar is good depth/solid special teamer but some sound as if we just cut Vilma, Luke K, Bobby Wagner types at the position.

We have newer, younger, cheaper, faster versions of Nate Stupar on the current roster now. We will be fine.

And who do we play this season? Oh, yeah, the Giants. This is an informational move.

Guido, I really hope those words don't come back to haunt us...

Your fandom club is carving it in stone with their fingernails as I'm typing this...

He played like the deranged Spartan who lost his son in that last PS game no question about it. Here is the thing though; that was against BACKUPS. He won't sniff that in a real game. 30 years old, declining. Solid player but he is not the second coming of anything. Slightly above average and that is being nice. Still, would have liked to have him but that is life. I know though that "someone" is about to go off on me because I do not post facts and the reporting of others and instead use my own reasoning and mind power to come to conclusions. This person frowns upon anyone with a god damn opinion outside of anything they say.

Not sure who that someone might be, but I've never once felt Stupar was anything more than a complementary specialty teamer. Agree with your assessment completely.
