Old Washed Up Dude Cut

He'd be a great addition to the squad but we know the Bengals would never sign him.

Mike Brown is too cheap. He obviously doesn't care whether the Bengals win or lose.

One of the good teams will offer him top dollar and the Bengals will sit on their hands.

We should have traded Justin Smith for him before he hit the market.

If we cut Thornton now, we'll still have a chance to sign him!

No comprendo. Who you talking about?

Mem's just being sarcastic. Most of the cut players people want the Bengals to look at fit the "old and washed up" description.

Yes, indeed being sarcastic. But not so much at the Bengals but at the reflexive threads that pop up every time an old and washed up player is cut elsewhere. This team is long since past the time where its fanbase needs to yearn after every Ray Bentley that hits the waiver wire.

I simply can't answer if the old washed up dude should be signed until Hoosier crunches the cap numbers.

:lmao:

Hard to say since I don't know if the new CBA carried over the old CBA's cap exemption for old washed up dudes, where they only counted something like half what they ought, if they had a salary and signing bonus under certain figures. I'll check and get back to ya, tho.

:cheers:

Do you mean a guy like Willie Anderson Mem?

I'd wait until he's actually washed up to break that one out. Come on. Guy's been here since 1996, give him some love.

...and FOUR FREAKING Pro Bowls!!!!! (wait, someone will downgrade the Pro Bowl further proving Anderson isn't worthy of our praise)

this is my absolute favorite thread of alltime. sometimes it takes humor to slice all the way to the bitter core of a problem ... well done, though i must say i'm a washed-up, old dude myself. speaking of that, maybe we could bring back no. 15, the turk, to be carson's backup ...

Hey, I define old and washed up. And I don't think the Bengals need to sign me, either...

Ohhh! Ohhh! Ohhh! Another old washed up dude...this time on the trading block!

Bills | Spikes on the trade block

Wed, 21 Mar 2007 18:58:48 -0700

Mark Gaughan, of the Buffalo News, reports Buffalo Bills LB Takeo Spikes is on the trade block, and all the economic factors point to him being traded. It remains hard to see how they can avoid spending more cash than their cap limit of $112 million with Spikes on the roster. He's scheduled to make $4.6 million in 2007.

Get on the phone, Mike!!! :lmao:
