    If my memory stands corrected, Keller, Shonn Greene, and Cotchery were not featured during the entire series.

    If I am right, how come?

    Too many other things going on. HBO tends to focus on some Vets and some Rookies

    Westhoff is grumpy old man funny. I've always been a fan of that and hope to get there in (hopefully) many years. Rex is just being Rex, and it's funny.

    I give Westhoff the edge, but I do intend to work the term 'slapdick' in to at least 1 conversation per day.

    Maybe they're just not interesting?

    Just noticed at the end of the clip. Is there snow in Cortland in August? Or is that just a huge pile of blow?

    My friend was using that term a few months ago and I died laughing when I heard Rex using it

    focusing on guys like the kia kid was kind of dumb. i would've rather seen keller, cotchery or greene.

    i don't mind duccasse or mcknight getting attention but some of those guys were wasted air time.

    Yeah I thought Keller and Greene would get a lot of face time since they were all over the promos. Mangold also got very little air time considering how much they were hyping him. Then again, Hard Knocks has always been more about the guys on the bubble.

    That what the show is all about, so it doesn't surprise me half the team wasn't showcased.

    It was replayed and explained at length during the game... so I knew you had not seen it. He tripped over his own O lineman's foot. No contact. Therefore, the ground can cause a fumble. It looked like he had been touched at first...

    Westoff and Rex love that little fucker Woodhead.

    Revis' agent: " Let's win a super bowl, that's all that matters. You're still (garbled)...a lot of money. Let's win a super bowl."

    Rex to Revis' agents: "You know what? I've been workin on this for several days. I'm gonna go coach this team. I have to get ready for Baltimore. You know how the owner feels. It's a fuckin joke. I can't believe we can't get a deal done. Three years left on a fuckin contract. Watch Monday night. Watch what the fuck happens." and he storms out.

    Tanny says" See your guys." and hangs up. Then he says "What does the negotiation playbook say to do now?"

    Tell ya what.... Woody stared these asshole agents down. He WAS NOT going to cave.

    Thank you. I couldn't get the last part on several rewinds.

    Indeed. I have new respect for him. I have a feeling this whole Revis process (which has now happened twice) is going to make the Jets FO think twice about signing a guy with slapdick agents.
