Twitter: Shaq leaving Dallas without a deal

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

Yeah but it's the Colts. They don't need a reason with Irsay as their owner.

This, owner is plum crazy.

 

[Proof]

Always an excuse and then he magically balls out for our rivals. We passed on Wagner too how did that work out.

i mean is obj "balling out"? they went through the process, i'm sure there's a reason he's not signed at this point.

Yeah OBJ looks better lately but yeah I’m still taking Cooks over him.

We like our guys.

 

[Risen Star]

No Stephen nose whistle. Will actually get some food with their head coach around.

We're screwed.

 

[NeonNinja]

They tried, guys. Honest offer.

 

[Creeper]

Difference makers are not let go in week 12 or 13. Dallas normally takes a flyer on guys like this, see Rashaan Evans. If he left without a deal there has to be a little more to it. For those of you upset by him leaving with no deal what do you think a LB coming off of 2 back surgeries is worth?

Leonard is not going to help Dallas or Philadelphia this year no matter who signs him. The Colts were about to bench him for poor play, then cut him instead. Sad story but he is not the same player who made the Pro-Bowl. He would be a downgrade from what Dallas already has. Look who is playing LB for the Colts now. No names.

Ehhh I don’t think that’s it.

If you are being offered a job and have two interviews, you don’t jump at the first. You get an offer, go to the second and see if they will give you more

 

[CCBoy]

Leonard apparently has made promises to other teams that he would at least listen to all offers before making a decision.

Melt downs? I have not read any posts yet.

 

[Rockport]

Maybe. But Jerry and Stephen have a history of being cheap when it comes to free agents. They try to sell the brand to make up the difference of what other teams are offering

It’s all about you and how you face life. Glass half full, or glass half empty.

 

[conner01]

I'm sure we made our best offer, I'm not worried.

The offer means nothing at all. He’s still gonna get the same pay no matter who signs him

 

[Creeper]

Watch Howie sign him for peanuts and it not affect the cap at all.

He has to get at least the vet minimum, but it would be pro-rated for CAP purposes.

 

[Creeper]

If the Colts let him walk there is a reason. People always are into the name not the player.

This would be like the Yankees signing Rocky Colavito.

 

[Risen Star]

They do that and we do this.



We win.

 

[conner01]

I thought they have 13.5...where did you find that number?

Cap space doesn’t matter

 

[conner01]

Jerry supposedly had lunch with him so
maybe he wants too much.

He’s already getting his full salary from the colts. He can’t get more. He can sign for the min or 5 mil and he gets paid the same

 

[conner01]

I believe the eagles have 2 million. Dallas has 6 million and Texas has no income tax…

It doesn’t matter. He’s getting his full salary from the colts no matter what. What a team pats doesn’t change anything other than saves the colts a few bucks

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Curious... has he played at all this year? Is he in a position to play immediately and if not, does anyone know his timeline on hitting the field? Just guaging his impact.
