Mr. Hoopah! Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I despise ESPN. They just did an entire segment on the NFL, contracts, etc, and no mention of the Roddy situation. It has been over an hour. I am turning this garbage off. If someone can summarize it, I would like to know what they say when I get back...I guaruntee they're going to say both sides are working to get it done, and that's it. I'm just glad this isn't an ugly holdout, but it still needs to end soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylor228193 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Update: They added absolutely nothing. Everyone knows what a f*cking holdout is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCSBDirtyBird Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Well it was tough, but I did it. I sat through 60 minutes of First Take. I was about to walk out the door, and it came on. According to ESPN, Roddy is holding out. Wow, I hate this channel. They did mention that there are ongoing negotiations though, and that hold outs are a bad thing.

Statick Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 The update provided absolutely nothing new.Thought so.When Roddy signs, we'd hear it from J. Mike first. Way before ESPN got ahold of the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre5000 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 ESPN can suck, but at least its not the AJC, which sucks on the regular.. I mean, camp has started and we hardly get anything in the AJC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrty Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 That update was pointless...it presented no hopes of the contract being resolved...complete garbage from ESPN. Steve Wyche's interview on 790 added a little more clarity. He mentioned the reason why there isn't a big commotion coming from Falcons' camp is because Roddy won't miss much...he's familiar with the offense, he knows the routes, and all he may have is a little rust to knock off. Truthfully, at this point, I think we should give him Fitzgerald money...mostly in incentives though. It could very well be a stretch, but if you take him out of the equation, our offense suffers. We do have the leverage with the CBA situation, which would be the better choice, but if we want to win now and possibly make it to the Superbowl, let's just give him the money...he just better not disappoint.

Peyton Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I do have to say that I enjoyed the piece on the messed up rookie contracts they did a few minutes ago, and I especially enjoyed watching Matthew Stafford hem and haw when the chick asked him if he felt like he had earned all the money he's been paid.

At around 12:30pm, Roddy returned home with a bag of what appeared to be Taco Bell burritos..... We're not sure, but when we get conformation, we'll let you know......" :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
