does he even KNOW what he is talking about? not from what I can tell

Hobson says the most inane things.... in a rambling, lame way.

Hobson might be the best example of someone being awful at their job that I have ever seen. Week after week, article after article, he always finds new ways to amaze me with his incompetence.

"The irony of The Ocho lobbying for fellow receiver Terrell Owens is that the Bengals may have to look at extending Ochocinco rather than trying to ink a big money receiver like Owens or Broncos RFA Brandon Marshall." --- The Hobnob

Suddenly my morning coffee tastes slightly bitter, the air I breath seems a bit more stale, and if I'm not mistaken...my bowels just flopped.

[kingwilly]

depends on how much coffee you've had but my guess it was the quote....

just reading that again causes a tint of red to drop in front of my eyes.

Hobson is a comedic genius.

This would be one of those years that I would LOVE to be in the front office meetings to hear what they are really looking at for the draft.

It could go so many different ways and it sucks this is the best we can get from Hobson.

So we cant get a younger WR like Marshell or Boldin because we need extend chad? wtf...

There's a difference in can't and won't and we don't make those decisions. Seeing how they have handled Chad to this point just gives me that impression, nothing more.

quite the statement, huh?

whiskey tango foxtrot for sure.

F chad. let him go and go get Boldin AND Marshall. I am no student of the salary cap, but with no CAP, there can be no CAP HIT.

if we can't go get a WR because we need to extend Chad, then we surely can't redo JJoe or Leon because we'll need to extend Geathers...

idiots. and an idiot writer. madness.

Yes, a perfect Hobson spin to start the ball rolling about why they can't sign a FA WR, ahead of time.

Mike - "Butch, put something on the web site that bascially says we can't sign a FA WR because we'll have to extend Chad first, and that will eat up our cap room, even though there won't be a cap, people will eat it up."

Hobknob - "Sounds good boss."

[ArmyBengal]

whiskey tango foxtrot for sure.

Well done...

[Whur CHad At?]

Wait until we sign a FA and Hobinator writes an autobiography about the guy and what he did in highschool and has an interview with his wife.

I hate Hobson, I have been saying this for years that he needs to go.

[NJ29]

They probably just keep Hobson around 'cause he's such a thrilling interviewer.
