Tom Coughlin probably wanted to do the trade for KCs 2 1s and had to have owner approval for that magnitude of a trade and that’s when Super Mario stepped in and chose to keep Ramsey in hopes of getting more in return.

We're obviously keeping this in the back pocket in case of injuries etc for the trade deadline. It's smart to let the season play out. If NE really is on the hook for Brown's contract, their cap is wrecked for this year with only $1,521,400 left. [Reply]

His son is running the wrestling promotion, apparently they're huge wrestling fans. [Reply]

This idea that a player can force his way off a team is rubbing some of these old rich dudes the wrong way.
Ramsey hasn't gone hard enough about it yet then. Come out in the media and say you're willing to accept the fines and you aren't playing.
He doesn't seem to want to do that because I think he's actually a legit good dude and cares for his teammates, but if he wants out, he's gotta go thermonuclear. [Reply]

I think he thought they'd do what he asked so he tried to not be a fuckhead about it, so now he's caught in the middle. [Reply]

No kidding....I thought Cody Rhodes was the head of creative and storylines. I haven't followed it very closely though. Khan definitely has an affinity for inherently "western" things. [Reply]
