Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
The Packers also turned down Perry's 5th year and they are still paying him 5 million. So that doesn't mean they won't sign him after the season they just don't want to sign him for his option
^ Yep, good point. Specifically, both Sylvester and Hayden I think were mentioned in the news reports as being likely retained, but at lower dollar figures.

It's hard to believe how far Patterson has fallen. After his rookie year the dude looked like a star
