@davebftv Deep into it? Will you make it out to the National this year?

@davebftv You collect?

Need it

@GabeyCardStacks Tons of other posts about how it's highway robbery. Those guys are trying to compare it to 2015 Topps prices. Apparently they haven't bought football cards in a while.

Do we know odds yet? $350 seems suspiciously reasonable

@stottpie @JasonKelce Maybe he was being ironical

@JasonKelce Let's retire the word 'irregardless'

This is interesting. It feels like it’s obvious that Frank retired because he was physically fighting through injuries and pain, and it got to a point that he no longer could play the game in an enjoyable, effective, or healthy way. The whole purpose of a signing bonus is to be a guarantee up front that insures a salary irregardless of performance metrics, or most importantly injuries that could compromise your career in the future. What makes this interesting is that Frank likely retired “voluntarily”, meaning, he wasn’t declared medically unfit to play by a doctor, which allows the team to ask for a prorated amount of his signing bonus back. Had he been medically deemed unfit to play football by a doctor before he retired, the team wouldn’t be able to recoup part of the signing bonus. Let me say this first, if a player truly just retires without reason, or because they’ve lost the desire to play, I completely get and acknowledge teams should be able to recoup compensation when players don’t fulfill there contractual obligations and agreements. However, Frank was known for being hurt and playing through injuries most players wouldn’t play through constantly. Broken foot, a torn pec, multiple knee injuries, back issues. There was always something, and I’m sure he was continuously dealing with multiple ailments to try and continue playing the game. His body clearly had deteriorated to a degree that made football no longer a viable option, physically, and probably mentally. In my opinion, the signing bonus is supposed to protect players from future physical ailments limiting their availability on the field, that’s one of the reasons you want more guaranteed money upfront. So while I get that the team has a right to ask for money back, in the spirit of the agreement, I think it’s bullshit Frank is being asked to return money. This was clearly a player that the game had physically taken its toll on, and his body was clearly no longer holding up to the rigors of the NFL. It wasn’t just some player deciding he didn’t want to play anymore, it wasn’t that simple, and these signing bonuses are there to protect players from the inevitable injuries they incur on the field.

@barstoolsports CB Bucknor's incompetence, coupled with his union protections, could not come at a worse time for the NFL Referees negotiations.

It’s been a rough few days for CB Bucknor. He said Jake Bauers didn’t touch first base x.com/TonyCMKE/statu…

@Ericc5Bears @BigBobsCards He's the type of guy to put a nuisance lawsuit on someone. In this case, I'm fine with him doing it.

@BigBobsCards What’s wrong with that? People who agree to a deal and then continue to shop it around and eventually back out to sell for higher are scum. He obviously has no chance to win any kind of lawsuit but even just putting some fear into the heart of someone who does that is great imo.

@Topps @Mets @MrMet @mrsmet That’s cool but do you have Mr. Met on LinkedIn?

Mr. & Mrs. Met have a dual patch autograph in Series 1 Celebration!

@Topps @LudexApp @Mets @MrMet @mrsmet Poor Mr Met about to get blown up on LinkedIn. Is @NjTank99 on LinkedIn yet? If not, we found a reason for him to be.

@LudexApp @Mets @MrMet @mrsmet i’m requesting him rn

In huge @JudicialWatch victory, Fifth Circuit already found counting ballots received AFTER Election Day is unlawful. Today, SCOTUS will decide whether to take up another JW case tied to Illinois's counting ballots that arrive for up to 14 days after Election Day!

How would I get Ann Hathaway on #Frankwalks

@SleeperNFL Absolutely agree about Lane Johnson, but how the hell aren't there more Joe Thuney votes?

NFL players that would make the HOF if they retired right now: Aaron Rodgers Matthew Stafford Patrick Mahomes Travis Kelce Bobby Wagner Von Miller TJ Watt Myles Garrett Derrick Henry Tyreek Hill Davante Adams Mike Evans Trent Williams Who else should be added to this list?

@Ky1eLong Hey Kyle, who were the comedians?

Was scrolling my feed today and I saw two comedians I enjoy ripping football card packs and they pulled my dad out and said I love their sons Chris and Jake

@3YearLetterman Everything on Arby's menu is just an Arby's Sauce delivery system. And I'm fine with that.

Emily hates freedom and Arby’s

@MichaelGus57 Let's see if Ragnow is healthy, and have BJ coax him out of retirement

I’m very surprised to see some Bears fans falling into the same old “you can get a C anywhere” trap after seeing both sides of this coin the last 5 years. Make a significant investment (again) and fix this crucial position (again.)

@BDKleinman But he's so damn handsome, and a chiseled athlete.

@BeefSupreme57 Not this time!

Next Clue: Played IF (C, 1B, 2B, 3B or SS)

@North2North @XStevoGabino @BarroomNetwork He was a hell of a player and a turnover machine. "Lockdown corner" he was not.

@XStevoGabino @BarroomNetwork Lock down corner .. 38 interceptions and 44 forced fumbles total of 82 combined 3rd in nfl history and 8 picks for touchdowns 8th in NFL history . Should be in HOF easy Urlacher 22 interceptions and 11 forced fumbles total of 33 not close .

Was the best defensive player on that team and should be in HOF . @BarroomNetwork

@startkyIeorton I would think that, at least in part, is that he turned down $5-6m NIL to enter the draft. Draftniks see that, and assume that someone assured the agent he'd go in the 1st.

Well see simpson makes "NFL throws" (he's willing to rip a backside dig) which is always attractive to teams nowadays when most prospects avoid the MOF like the plague but once he's in the league that's not really a superpower anymore its just meeting the minimum standard

@BearsShowYo When Ben said clearly that he and Burden would progress slowly, because both missed OTAs and a chunk of training camp.

Remember when they called him a bust midway through the season and the Bears wasted their pick on the worst TE in the draft? Lmao.
