  1. Aside frpm the obvious ( 70k x10k x 2 = 140 million ) if they do it that way they know a lot of people will lose their seats and a lot of people on the list won't buy. They did this in Philly knowingly. It will be interesting to see if they do a blanket fee are go up to 25k and target the best seats.It will also be interesting to see what the Jets do.
  2. it is not a per year charge but rather a 1 time fee. the number I heard last Septe,ber was 10k but that it would apply to every seat. Interestingly enough King invisions only about 40% of ticket holders charged and roughly 2 1/2 times the 10k number I heard. perhaps their thinkin has evolved. Either way we will almost certainly have to pay. And yes the sole purpose of "seat licenses" is to free up seats for corporations. Of course corporations, either through TV advertising or through direct luxury box and ticket buys, is where all the owners revenues come from so this should not really be a surprise.
  3. lol. I always ignored it because it came across as being a really stupid, brainless girl but I still thought it was a girl.

    TRIVIA

    85% but I watched the video 2 days ago so I am not sure it counts
  5. shhhhhhhh. we do not use the "H" word in my household!!!!!!!!!!! The day Kerry threw 5 TD passes against the Vikes to win the NFC was a fine day indeed. N o need to belittle that either.
  6. just watched this last night for the first time. Props to dragon for highlighting some great quotes. I also loved when the head ref at the super bowl was asking Coughlin about frost bite on his face before the game. Couglin replies: "This year they are all talking about my face. last year it was my ass"!!!
  7. lmao fwiw they still periodically auction seats from the old ( pre '70s renovation ) Yankee Stadium. Buddy of mine has 4 in his basement with a bar set up . very cool

    Vilma

    would be a really bad idea to pick this kid up. His knee issues raise major question marks and he really only had 1 good season.
  9. fuck landry. the only thing keeping this guy from being crowned dirtiest player in the league is lack of tenure. What a cheap shot artist. I sure hope karma catches up to this punk.
  10. Chad is such a little girl. He would fit right in with those losers.
  11. thank his kids. He was ready to hang 'em up for the "good of his family" last year. Then his boys explained that they wanted to stay in Bergen county because the liked it better up here than Arizona.
  12. i know he may be getting a little long in the tooth but Marty Booker got cut today. At the right price he might complement Plex and Smith.
  13. who knows whether Zorn will be any good or not?? A better question would be what does it matter? The skins only have 45 players signed for 2008 and are still 20+ million over the cap. Even with the expected 7 or 8 million dollar bump to the cap they have a lot of work to do on their roster. I doubt these guys will be a factor for a while.
  14. would have been a first ballot lock if he could have played the Gints 4 times a year instead of two. That cat used to kill us.
  15. wouldn't surprise me at all. Odds makers in Vegas already have a bunch of teams favored over us: odds to win XLIII New England Patriots 5:2 Indianapolis Colts 6:1 Dallas Cowboys 6:1 Green Bay Packers 7:1 San Diego Chargers 10:1 Jacksonville Jaguars 10:1 New York Giants 12:1 Seattle Seahawks 18:1 Pittsburgh Steelers 18:1 New Orleans Saints 20:1 Chicago Bears 25:1 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 28:1 Cleveland Browns 30:1 Tennessee Titans 30:1 Washington Redskins 30:1 Cincinnati Bengals 38:1 Denver Broncos 38:1 Minnesota Vikings 38:1 Philadelphia Eagles 45:1 Arizona Cardinals 45:1 Baltimore Ravens 50:1 Buffalo Bills 60:1 Carolina Panthers 60:1 Detroit Lions 60:1 Houston Texans 60:1 New York Jets 75:1 St. Louis Rams 75:1 Miami Dolphins 100:1 Oakland Raiders 100:1 San Francisco 49ers 100:1 Kansas City Chiefs 100:1 Atlanta Falcons 100:1
  16. osi, if he holds out, will miss 1 or 2 weeks period. The guy has 5 years left on his deal. The Giants have way too much leverage. What is he going to do, sit out the next 5 years without pay???
  17. not so worried about the Skins. Word is that the Eagles are seriously considering making Spags an offer. View is that Reid's family troubles are too much for him to overcome and they may ask him to step down. Would hate to see him go back to Philly. That is a place he could really hurt us. As long as chainsaw Dan owns the Redskins we will never have to seriously worry about them winning anything but an occasional 6th seed.
  18. I'm going. Racoon Lounge ( warren and west broadway ) is putting out a buffet and openning around 9:30 or so.
  19. I just hope they saved some of what ever they shot him up with ib GB
  20. but surely egg has nothing to worry about. With the Giants nearly a 1 in 5 longshot to compete in this game Dallas will breeze. Any other result would be a choke of MONUMENTAL PROPORTIONS. Even bigger than the big choke Romo had last year in the playoffs.
  21. you are absolutely right to be looking past the Giants. So what if your offense limped down the stretch as it did last year. So what if your team has not won a playoff game in over a decade. So what if you guys lose it might be the worst loss in franchise history. You actually have nothing to worry about. As Gregg Easterbrook correctly pointed out the home team in the divisional round almost never loses: Home teams in the NFL divisional round are the surest thing in sports. Since the current playoff format was adopted in 1990, home teams in the divisional round are 53-15, a .779 winning figure.
  22. barely squeeked into the playoffs on two occasions as the #6 seed. He had a losing record overall in those 4 years and his teams where marked by inconsistency in each of the 4 seasons. Of course part of that is due to the fact that they have not had a decent quaterback in ages and that dope Snyder thinks it is imperative to turn over half his roster every year.
