Tommy-the-Greek Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 What the hell gives? I have been patiently waiting all week for today to hurry up and get here so I could see some transactions and we can all have some new things to talk about. And I keep reading everything will happen between monday and wednesday. This totally sucks. I hurried home from work so I can see what happened today and.............. nothing. I had enough, I am going to take the Mrs. down to the Jersey shore and go bar hopping and get drunk and maybe I can convince her to go under the boardwalk:D I will be sure to have a drink for you guys and check out some g-strings for ya too:laugh: I almost forgot gotta find my sunglasses so my wife doesn't catch me........

Om Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Damn ... guy's back starts feeling better and he thinks he's 18 again. I didn't let myself get too worked up over June 1 since it falls on a Saturday. Figured all along things wouldn't really start happening until Monday. Hey, everybody's watching World Cup, right? Who's got time to negotiate with free agents? Ahem. Stay tuned for sarcastic soccer comment from sailor type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blade Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 My understanding was that June 3rd would be the cut day since the 1st is on a weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbear Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Doesn't Coleman get some sort of roster bonus on Monday or Tues? That was the only reason I hadheard why Coleman might be let go this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom [Giants fan] Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I took the following from espn.com/nfl. It explains why there isn't anything happening today. Teams don't officially start releasing players for cap relief until Monday. I think the Giants may try to get this guy as I am hearing they may release Kenny Holmes. "The Washington Redskins will release starting left defensive end Marco Coleman next Monday, the first day that NFL teams can officially gain salary cap relief by making post-June 1 roster moves, agent Jack Reale told ESPN.com on Friday night."

Tommy-the-Greek Posted June 2, 2002 Author Share Posted June 2, 2002 Originally posted by Om Damn ... guy's back starts feeling better and he thinks he's 18 again. I have learned one thing since my back problems. When it is feeling better, get the hell out of the house and do something cause it never seems to fail when it is out I just sit here and think about those kinda things. The mrs. talked me into going into the ocean after a few beers and shots. Damn that was cold. We couldn't go under the boardwalk cause after I got out of the cold water, i couldn't find it.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSkin Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I heard on the radio mostly only the expected cuts will happen...McCardell, Derrick Alexander (not totally expected), Glen Parker, Ray Brown, etc. The only surprise is that the Bengals may release Darnay Scott.

skinsfanbu Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Regardless of when a player is cut...the player will wait for any bidding wars to develop. There are also domino effects on player signings. This can create bidding pressure as needs are not filled by various teams. DE's seem to be readily available, but DT's are scarse. If I were Sam's agent, I'd be waiting for other bids before deciding anything quickly. HTTR, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom [Giants fan] Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Oh well, so much for the Giants going after Coleman. Kenny Holmes re-did his contract for this year saving the Giants $1.2 million towards this years cap so they can sign their draft picks and maybe a lower price free agent. I got that off of espn.com/nfl. That is usually the source of most of my posts for future references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyskinsfan Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Prediction: Redskins make two announcements on Friday for signing two FA's. An OG and a DT. The following week Coleman is reportedly signing with the team he started with - Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
