    nfl isn't involved. they're using some legal gray area to be able to use the logos and shit without needing permission

    it's not a gray area; it's the fair use doctrine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use

    What's different between that and the NFL essentially shutting down playmakers? The fact that ESPN was a partner?

    Playmakers was Ryan Mallett's struggles but spread across an entire roster.

    the #s these guys are throwing around seem really off. i highly doubt Vern has a liquid $5 mil in his bank account, considering he's year 1 of his deal and all the clingers in his life. same for Ricky J. malcontent slot WR for most of his career, but hes got a cool $1 mil in cashplus amother 4 or 5 gold bars in his safe? if thos re the 400 oz kind thats about $500k per so another 2-3 mil. not buying that a typical league vet like that with a "funhouse" has that much saved up in hard currency. but hey he's now gone from a guy beggin for a job in season 1 to a fringe HOFer, so maybe hes done better than i expect ...

    Thought that too. But he has railed hard against Andre to his clients so he might not want to cross that bridge.

    After reading "Low Collision Crossers" where a writer followed around the Jets for year, a team would absolutely hire someone like that.

    Just watched this episode. Why is Bunny Colvin now pushing for the best Qb in the league when he screwed the option to play with Drew Brees three episodes ago?

    The sniffing of the cash was one of the worst things I've seen in a long time

    That was a terrible episode

    solid end to the season. I noticed during the credits that someone involved is named Spencer Strasmore.

    googled it, found this.
