Jumbo Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 http://detroit.sbnation.com/2012/9/3/3289557/detroit-lions-nfl-salary-cap-penalty Houston, Detroit and N.Y. Giants are all roughly $700,000 over NFL's salary cap, according to league source. Houston can take their cap exception from the Redskins and Cowboys and get under the cap, but the Giants and Lions will have to make a move or restructure contracts to get under cap. They have until Wednesday to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COWBOY-KILLA- Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Mara is the Judge Elihu Smails of the NFC east....... Judge Smails is a founding member of Bushwood Country Club, along with Ty Webb's father. He is an excellent golfer, though he is flustered easily, cheats on occasion, welches on bets, and tips caddies poorly. He is racist and prejudiced and a snob. He has an excitable temper. His niece Lacey is visiting for the summer. His grandson Spaulding is a poor athlete (at golf and tennis). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Yeah, just a small pleasure in the fact this is causing an irritant to the Giants. They'll be under the cap before the season kicks-off Wednesday. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to dream up a bio for this pretentious lint-licker, It would resemble this closely. All except the part about 'precious' little Spaulding being a walnut when it comes to sports.

ThomasRoane Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Unfortunately, it appears they'll be ok. However! Every year some team is hit by the Injury Fairy. How sweet would it be if it happened to (g)ay-men?!? They won't have enough wiggle room with the cap to handle that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander PK Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I really hope they have to cut somebody decent to get under. One of their marquee players refusing to restructure would be outstanding. :groupwave::jump: ---------- Post added September-4th-2012 at 09:45 AM ---------- Palpatine thinks this is good.

"Ty you're father and I founded Bushwood", " TY, Judge Smails, my father, he never really liked you." I hope they have to cut someone who matters and karma makes it hurt during the season.

GaryGreenMonk Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'm surprised no one has mentioned that the Giants are STARTING, .. Sean freaking Locklear as their LT. Sean Locklear folks ... starting LT.. Giants. I'm pretty sure Orakpo and Kerrigan can blow up Locklear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrypticVillain Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'm surprised no one has mentioned that the Giants are STARTING, .. Sean freaking Locklear as their LT. Sean Locklear folks ... starting LT.. Giants. I'm pretty sure Orakpo and Kerrigan can blow up Locklear. Man, I really can't stand the Cowboys, but I always respected Demarcus Ware. With that being said, boy I cannot wait to see him destroy Locklear. Not only after the whole capgate thing, but Locklear said this after the season last year: “Worst exit meeting ever!” Locklear wrote. “No coaches, no front office, just physical’s and goodbye to teammates! We did just spend 5 [months] together, WOW!”Just after a half hour later, Locklear deleted the Tweet, writing, “Whoa, I apologize Redskins nation, didn’t mean to cause any stir! Gotta keep feelings out it! #Business.” I did like Shanny's response: Head coach Mike Shanahan said he told the players after the loss to Philadelphia that he wouldn’t have any formal exit meeting with them Monday. Instead, he’d meet with players individually – some by his request, some by theirs.“I talked to Sean after the game, and obviously, he must not have liked my speech,” Shanahan said. “He must have been disappointed in it. But I’ve only been doing it that way for a number of years, and he must be used to a different way. I apologize, Sean. It will never happen again … at least not with me.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsCrushCowboys Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 They will be fine and will be restructured by the end of the day. It is ironic though and if any prime time players, big salary players get hurt it could bite them in the ass later this season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 John Mara should die of ghonorrhea and rot in hell. Steve, I'm cutting you a break on that one. Should have been a one week (or longer depending on any mod's judgement) ban. Avoid that over the top stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWinSkins83 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Everytime I think about the Gnats I think about Eric Winston, Brandon Carr or Eric Wright, and Mario Williams not being on this team. **** the Gnats I hope someone blank in their Gatorade jugs and Mara lose his team.

That does make it better (and we all know what a POS we thnk Mara is, we just do have an "over the top" thing on anyone) Had you included the video I might not even have bothered saying anything.
