so if my math is right, darrelle revis has now cost himself roughly $480,000 in salary by holding out
Those are fines not taken out of his salary. Not only is he not getting a paycheck but he has to pay the fines as well. If a new deal is signed all be forgiven though.
The Bible has prophesied Revis' return: Jets 3:16 After the Day ending in Y, at dawn on the first day of the week, Rex Ryan went to the house of Revis. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of Revis came down from heaven and, going to his home, rolled back the door and sat on top of it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were green as grass and white as snow. The doormen were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to Rex, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Revis, who was holding out. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his fans: 'He has risen from the holdout and is going ahead of you into the Meadowlands. There you will see him.' Now I have told you." So Rex hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his team. Suddenly Revis met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Revis said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to the Meadowlands; there they will see me."
One pair of seats in our group is in the 7th row behind that end zone so we moved down there during garbage time. I too thought Boldin was dead. It was SO loud and the visual of him just falling limply was disturbing.
i must admit this brought a tear to my eye. great work tommy. the prophecy of revis will speak true:beer:
So there is a day called "hell freezes over day?" and what days of the week does this day fall between? Just asking not because I care if Revis signs on it but rather because there's this woman I know and she told me that on the day Hell freezes over she'd.....
Yes, ironically the team that is really short in the defensive backfield right now is the Ravens. The Foxworth injury really hurt them and one of the guys who might take the job, Fabian Washington, has been playing with bruised ribs all camp. Then you have no Ed Reed for at least the first half of the season, that's not the Ravens defense you usually see back there. They did acquire Josh Wilson to help with the depth problems, but he's at roughly Dwight Lowery's level of ability and if they have to start him they're probably hurting.
I think Revis will be signed by the end of the week. He misses all of camp and the meaningless games, gets his money, and plays week 1 to shut down Flacco & Co. BTW: Sorry to derail the thread by talking about Revis.

The Darrelle Revis Holdout Thread (12 Days Until MNF) I thought the logical end was that it couldn't be done before Week 3?
