    He was a solid player and the Giants might have not made it to the playoffs without him, which would mean no ring. Obviously he was hurt but i don't think they should have left him go.

    i'm previous too, yet why are they out in rush hour trafffic while they are in a position to a bitpersistent. daily I see human beings of each and every age might should not be on the streets. My activity places an excellent style of time rigidity on me. I even have places to be! I haven't any time for day dreamers and megastar gazers the place i'm working. human beings forget that individuals have issues to ge carried out. NOW! i became into on the Interstate crossing Minnesota a whilst returned. It became into late Sunday morning approximately getting out of church time, and those 2 previous women in a pink Buick handed me doing a minimum of ninety 5. i became into in a line of autos hiting 80 5-ninety, and we've been urgent it. I figured that those previous gals had felt the skill of the lord that morning, and that they have been driving that Buick precise into heaven.

    He failed a physical ...

    He hasn't improved ...

    It's a business decision and clears room to add other players till he can come back. He will likely return under the physically unable to perform as a reserve ... they keep his rights for another year.

    "He got no signing bonus"

    (that's his fault since he accepted/signed his contract ... maybe he needs a better agent)

    I think you answered your own question. When you're injured and you're not healing as fast as they think you should be, unfortunately, you've gotta go. From their point of view, regardless of what you did before, if you have nothing to contribute going forward, that money can be used to pay someone who is going to be able to immediately contribute. That's the nature of the game, unfortunately.

    they wanted to incorporate Travis Beckum and more into their system as much as possible because they think that he has allot of potential. i guess that just makes it more possible. he'll be picked up really quick like Jeremy Shockey and Kevin Boss.

    EDIT: Misspelled Shockey
