Big welcome from me too, Run2win, I think you'll enjoy this forum, well run and lots of great people. Sometimes someone may get a little too flappy but doesn't happen that much.

Now - am I wrong or didn't I read that AC was to be mentored by AL ???

I wonder if Carrol knew/had a feeling that AL was gonna pull this BS and that's why he's shut up and accepted the demotion as well as the signing of Chuck W. so well.....


hmmmmmmm???

[MJZiggy]

Ahh, conspiracy theories in the offseason...I think Carroll shut up and took his demotion because he knew having a hissy fit would get him nowhere but demoted further. There's a time to sit back and take a look at what you still have left to lose. I think this was his wake-up call. Let's see how wide awake he gets.

[Harlan Huckleby]

It ain't much of a demotion. Caroll will play a lot, probably end up starting some games as injuries occur in secondary. He's young and getting better, Harris and Woodson are well past their prime.

I'm not sure Carroll even has a clue what a wake up call is, MJ. Everyone's

buzzing about how "improved" he is this year, so far, but I just can't buy

it, at least not yet. He's been 'talked to,' coached, and every other thing

for 2 years to give him that wake up call, but.....I'm afraid I only vision

him as a younger T.O. or one of these "look at me" characters. Maybe

when I see a little maturity developing in him I can speak a little more

kindly. Until then, I'll just watch.....

He came out early. It's not like he entered the league as a 22 year old.

What if Ted goes to Al's agent and promises to renegotiate after this season? If he does that and Harris plays well, TT could negotiate a much shorter term deal with higher pay, so the Pack is not stuck paying for Harris when he's sitting in a rocking chair reading the paper with his bi-focals. If Harris plays like crap, TT could say no soap to the guy.

Nah, that is of little use to Al. He is at age where his bargaining position goes down every year. Harris is gonna get his deal upgrade now or never and he knows it.

He had his shot, 2004, got his $7M nest egg.
