Last night's episode, the last one of the season, was the most interesting.

There was a funny blooper clip at the end of the show where they were doing an interview with Fischer and part of a desk fell down. Someone off camera said "That's some 7-9 bullshit!" :lol:

I didn't know guys on the practice squad make $7,000 a week. Not too shabby.

Yeah, the practice squad money is decent, although it's a very limited time arrangement. If they made that for 52 weeks, it'd be a great gig.

A contract is signed in the off-season that includes a signing bonus. They don't workout and practice for free May - August.

Roughly 21 weeks of work, probably a week or 2 more is around $147000 a year.

Fisher then tells the team that Long is gone.

"I'm not f---ing going 7-9 or 8-8 or 9-7 ... we have too much talent here for that," he said on "Hard Knocks." "We had some 7-9 bulls--- this morning and we can't have that. Deon is gone. That is 7-9 bulls--- and we don't need it."

So we are going to go 4 and 12 instead! At least they are probably going back from those horrible gold jerseys to the classic royal blue and yellow right?

Best they can do is 9-7 now. And 7-9 may look good when this is all over.

Best scene of that whole series was the end credits of the last episode when they were interviewing him at his desk at the college and his billboard fell over and one of the cameramen said "that's some 7-9 bullshit right there". :lol:
