Fred T. Jane Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Cue the Price is Right loss musichttp://www.80stvthemes.com/ra/TPIRLOSE.ra Ugh, RealMedia.Here's the clip in a much better filetype. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

sj32 Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 One of the articles I read mentioned that the Raiders may resign him after Week 1. As a "Vested Veteran", George would be guaranteed a full year's salary if he is on the roster at the start of the regular season. The veteran minimum for a player with George's experience is more than $800,000, which is steep for a backup or third QB. By signing him before Week 2, they can cut him later in the season and not be on the hook for a full season's salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably it, 'cause otherwise I'm sure the media would be making a much bigger deal over his "release." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
