Wait... we can't say retard anymore...?

If i call one of my clients a derogatory name on Twitter, my boss should pat me on the back?

And like my post you took it "out of content". I never said that. I said they shouldn't be fired. Maybe discipline or counselling. Never gave any indication that employer should let it go or give them a "pat on the back".

Let me spare some people the wasted energy.... NO HE WILL NOT BE A SAINT.

 

[amused]

He has to pass through waivers ...

It was always on the profanity filter even on the old site.

mentally challenged is what you get with the -ed at the end. Apparently from your post retard is okay.

Would he have to go through waivers? Isn't there a point in the season when you don't? Or has he been in the league long enough to go straight to FA?

After the trade deadline all players have to clear waivers, vets included.

Oh. Good to know. Seems kind of silly. Do you happen to know why?

So, Sirius was right.

Janoris is not a "shut down" corner but still a good one.

Watch the CHIEFS pick him up.

Has an athlete ever tweeted something that actually helped or advanced their career or image? Ever?

So teams at the top can’t just grab whatever good players are released.

Another way to ensure parity.

To keep it fair for the worse teams.

Perhaps if you are speaking French and you are late?

 

[ANKOMA33]

Let's just hope he doesn't end up on a team like, say, you know ... the Niners.

Sherman is going to be out for several weeks.

Don't they already do enough to ensure parity all year long? The only teams that NEED players at this time of the year are teams with playoff shots. The bad teams get the high draft picks and first dibs on waivers all year long to make themselves better. Playoff teams get punished for being good and have to limp into the playoffs with injuries because they don't have a chance to sign a player who gets released this late in the year just so bad teams can be less bad.

Granted, we're not injured in the secondary and this player actually is injured, but I'm just talking in general.
