If you and I were friends 20 years ago, at least one of us would be dead.
I recently turned 43. I don't relate to today's pop culture, I don't watch new movies, or TV (for other reasons), but I'm still kind of hip.
I hope to maintain this energy for another 30 years, at least.

I thought you were younger than that. I'm 48. And have no hip in my hop.

Don’t know why he’d be pissed, he’s making nice money this year and a free agent next
That’s a players wet dream

The wet dream is finagling their way out of their current contract to get another signing bonus earlier. They do a delicate dance to make their team want to dump them while not looking like a problem to future teams. Kissing up to the Cowboys was a nice move to signal a desire to leave, in that we're unlikely to think of ET as a problem player for wanting to come to us.

No hippity to your hop? My wife's an ex-pro dancer. Not the exotic kind... lol. She put the hippity back in my hop. I love this city! Great people! Awesome culture!

I lost all semblance of cool when my hair started falling out.

And I'd much rather spend time with my dog than most people.

We only lose our cool when... not going there.
You're one of my favorite reads on this site and you have a fascinating way of expressing yourself.
You're as cool as the final level of Hell... temperature-wise.

And hell yeah! Go Dags! I have two and want more. #OnlyAdopt

Now... back to bidness. And here I am trying to work... This place is great!

True dat.

I may not be cool... but I am chill. And if you get me drunk, I will take you to the depths of the universe. And then spend the next 3 days sleeping it off.

Much is made of ET3 on these boards, as he has the talent to make us contenders. But with teams having to trim the fat and skim down their rosters, is Thomas the safety we should be targeting?

Teams typically carry 4/5 safeties on their 53.

Taking a look at their depth chart, Hawks currently have 9 according to ourlads.com.

Wont speak on Thomas as he's discussed ad naseum on here, but there's no chance he will be cut.
Chancellor has an injury issues, but even so I dont see any way they cut him either.
Hawks extended Bradley Mcdougald before he was able to hit free agency, so he will be staying.
They just drafted Tre Flowers out of OSU, so he will likely be staying as well.

The two I'm interested in Delano Hill and Thompson, who were 3rd and 4th rounders last year, respectively. Both were among targets for the Boys last year. Would you try to flip a low pick for one of them? It's likely one of the two dont make the 53.

Mo Alexander, Akeem King, and Dontae Johnson are also on the depth chart, but I have no knowledge of them.
I don't think they are inclined to part with any of them. They are still trying to figure out their own house.

I would like to question the posters who have been saying ET is pissed at things like not getting traded, or the offers the team is getting, or some such stuff.
I haven't seen, or heard that he's upset about really anything. He wants a new contract, that's all I've heard.

I haven't heard that he's pissed, or wants out (currently), or that he will hold out (he said he wouldn't).

Am I missing something, or are people just squawking what they want to believe?
He walked into the Cowboys locker room after Seattle won last year and went straight to Jason Garrett in front of everybody and said "Come get me!"

That's why.

I get that, but more is being said than that. I get the assumptions, but things like "the longer this draws out, the angrier he'll get" and the holding out stuff...
I question it.

Chancellor is done. Too hurt to continue. Bennett is gone. Sherman is gone. Richard is gone. They're going young. He knows this. They will not re-sign him.

Earl wants to come back to Texas.

Again - not my argument. People are putting thoughts and words into ET's mouth and I want to see something other than conjecture to corroborate these posts.

That's what message boards are for.

This isn't hard to read given his actions to date.
