Re: Is the new Redskins Front Office Gun Shy?
 

Rather than being gun shy, what if we aren't offering much guaranteed money. Since we know that camp will be highly competitive, i think that we are probably low balling the guaranteed side of the equation. i mean the only player signed is a versatile guy who has the ability to fill more than one spot on our line, and is comfortable both starting and being a backup. and i do like stating the obvious

Re: Is the new Redskins Front Office Gun Shy?
 

they're doing the right thing. i'd like to see them be a little more aggressive but they're taking the approach that it's going to take some time to be a contender. we're not going to be a contender next year so no need to go out and over pay for a guy like peppers.

that and probably the shorter term offerings could be part of it

Now both players signed are like that. They're stop gaps between the team we have to field for a year and the team we will be the year after next. Let the rebuilding keep going strong.

[quote]Here's one example of that cautious backlash, from Renegade7 at ExtremeSkins:

I'm still standing by my "3-year mercy grace period" I promised Allen and Shanny, but I can't lie, I'm agitated right now. I understand we don't want to overpay people, but it's an uncapped year AND WE STILL WON'T BUDGE AT ALL!? I understand this method of maddness works for some people, but how often does this work for a 4-12 football that doesn't want to be 4-12 anymore?

And another, from diehardskins2982 at TheWarpath.net:

Like a person with a powerful weapon scared to use, is the new Front Office Gun shy? Has Bruce Allen and Shanny been overly patient or doing the right thing in the uncapped year?[/quote]

i like how diehards comment is more of a reasonable statement of facts rather than a ruh-tarded statment of how to panic and and spend big in fa to improve a bad team, extreme skins is so bush league

Bigger forums tend to have more people. More people=more fools. That ES has more dummies because of that doesn't justify the snobbery sometimes prevalent here.

I probably come across that way at times. I really don't mean to and I'd like to apologize. I'd like to...but my song inspiring good looks and Stephen Hawking like intellect prevent me from doing so.

I'm a snob, so what.

I like noticing parallels. It's just like the Pojo.com forums and Janime forums. Similar dynamic.

That's quite vague.

I want to say something bad about them but they already took the liberty of posting my thoughts on their website. Oh yeah Tryfuhl, BHA, and Matty were also quoted but I was honored with the first post which led to a lurking accusation (which is obviously true, but it's kind of funny to see the pot calling the kettle black). I don't think they realized all those guest were really just regular fans, not media insiders.

Anyway Sammy, you're probably next. I used to have a happy go lucky life but then I got called out on ES and since then my life has sucked. My local postal workers can't even look me in the eye anymore and Mike Florio no longer accepts the inside information I send him from ES. Your life is about to take a turn for the worse. Hopefully you have life insurance.

You like fog.

And Pojo's n00bs are 100 times worse than ES's, mainly because of their age, but when they mature, they won't change much.
