I didn't feel like looking that up but thanks for doing so. Either way we made an idiotic move when we had a good runningback on the roster, extended a guy who had a deal in place and have still spent 3 years trying to replace the most rare commodity in the NFL (did I forget the 2nd rounder that was pissed away???).

You should also add Springs' deal, Smoot's deal, Rogers' deal, Wright's deal, Harris' deal and the bums that we grasped at.

Either way they should give him the ball 500 times this year and next (assuming he makes it to next year).

Don't worry, 500 carries is an excellent way to end a RB's career right on the spot.

Since I guess that's your goal or something.

Um, no, I would want him to earn his check this year. That is what you call an exaggeration. I know that when you are 19 you think you know everything but basically the best part of you ran down your mom's leg. So study up and shut your mouth.

That comeback really sucked. I'm almost offended that no one called you out on it. Guess they are probably just used to it by now.

Irrelivant bickering aside, the carry limit for a running back to break down the next season seems to be consistent around 370 carries in a season. Larry Johnson just received more carries than any back in NFL history at 416 (his 2007 will demonstrate my point). 500 is way more than 416.

I'd really like to tell you that I can help your out with your verbal diahrehhea, but I really don't think there's a cure for thinking that Clinton Portis should carry the ball 500 times to "earn his check." That's just crazy talk.

That's 'cause you don't have the guts to...c'mon, lock it...you won't do it
