Bell taken off official dept chart

This isn't news, someone noticed it late. It was the same listing before the week 1 game.

Maybe, IDK. But ALL the media I heard on it acted like it was a new development the last few days.

That's because a lot are hacks and don't do the weekly research that I do.

I thought it was a non story, because the roster was accurate. Bell wasn't on the roster, he's a no-show roster exempt.

Kind of like your great personality.............???




Salute the nation
 
let him stay out as long as he wants as long as he signs before the trade deadline.
 
Agreed he won’t make up the money he’s currently losing in his current holdout with his next contract

Also - is protecting his body really *that* serious? The only way he takes a serious hit on his next contract is if he suffers an injury so catastrophic it puts his career in jeopardy. He could tear his ACL this week and recover in time for next season. Does he think he’s gonna get paralyzed or something? I mean what are the odds of that and is the possibility really worth burning all these bridges?

And why is no one acknowledging the possibility that his willingness to burn his current team might factor in to the amount of money other teams might be willing to commit to him? I mean.. talent like that is worth a lot, but if he is a holdout risk, a suspension risk, etc then his availability and commitment to football/winning is in serious doubt. That has to affect a guy’s value and nobody can convince me that isn’t true.

Bottom line is Le’Veon is about making the big splash headline with the big money deal. If it were about making money he’d be on the field right now getting paid for 2018. He just wants to make the splash and be famous for how huge his contract is. It’s sad

I would think he carries a bigger risk now, and the winning teams will be gun shy about making that investment. It will be the ****** teams used to making bad decisions that perhaps give him what he wants.

Careful what you wish for Lev, you just may get it.

And some other problems attached that you weren't anticipating.

RBs are some of the most stupid mofo's out of all the NFL positions.............
 
Bell is still whining about getting too many touches when he gets back. He proves time and time again how much of a me person he is. He could care less about the TEAM he is on in the ultimate TEAM sport. As I've said before a few times, he cannot be trusted to give his all even when he does come back. If Conner is still playing well and is healthy, he will give us the best chance to win, not Bell who will be giving a half hearted effort with his eyes on the door. I really hope they can figure out a trade to get him the **** out of town. He is a cancer to this team and it will only get worse as the weeks go by and even when he does finally show up.
