Let see what kind of spin the Taman haters put on this. Good signing
I hope there's still money for WD7.
Naysayers who said he was gone --- What do you say now ?
Excellent!

Watch out Mr. Breckenridge, contract in the back pocket doesn't guarantee anything, ask Mr. Foley.
And there is that bonehead mrs. ela again!
You brought up a great point on show yesterday about Dressler perhaps waiting for another NFL opportunity before signing.
I am confident he will be back in green, but if the NFL comes calling again good luck.
Off topic... Scruffy dont glorify Lynch and his pathetic acts, the guy is a punk, always has been dont forget about the weapon charges, the assaults, dui's real class guy!! Good player, bad dude.
Lynch is an embarrassment to the Seahawks off the field and is extremely immature, but it is on the field that counts and he is outstanding. At the end of the day, Mitch is right. It is production on the field that matters. All the rest is beside the point.

That's why it's called the NFL, National Felons League.
