And yes, the rumor was that he had an affair, and his wife insisted on leaving Washington. If he stayed, she was leaving him.

We still got raped, trading a ten time pro-bowler for a one time pro-bowler. And the second rounder on top of it--although it didn't amount to much for Denver, was insult to injury.

Sounds like you were at ES too long.

A bit more complicated than that, but this thread isn't about that

No, in reality we traded Champ Bailey and a 2nd round pick for Portis.

Last time I checked you can't trade UFA's...the very point I tried to make. Next sentence...We traded Champ Bailey and.......I'm out.

Longtime, you must be a politician. You talk in circles, you backtrack on what you said and then you claim victory.

The point was that Champ Bailey was not a UFA at the time of the trade. Bailey wanted out of DC, and we would not have kept him after he eventually hit the UFA market. So we did the deal.
