Default Charles Spencer released

The main board is now reporting that Charles Spencer has been released. What happened to the extra 6 weeks? Anyway Spencer now has a chance to catch on with another team, or he could continue to rehab the knee and rejoin the team when and IF it gets better. Good Luck and God Blesss ya Charles, you've really had a bad time of it!

NBT do you have a link? I am having a hard time finding this.

I feel really bad for Spencer he's worked extremely hard against tough odds and then they change the scheme on him.

Hopefully he gets a nice settlement and lands on another squad. Might be time to try coaching.

I haven't seen it anywhere yet either? Maybe somebody jumped the gun and uploaded the press release too early, and then quickly pulled it back down?

I wouldn't be surprised, but with nothing going on right now....why not wait a few weeks and see where he stands? Of course I don't think they would release him if there was any hope left....

I haven't seen anything either. Chron doesn't have it and I think they would. Rotoworld doesn't have it either. Maybe he wasn't released,maybe he's just on double-secret probation.

I can't help but wonder if this is all just confusion started by that Chronicle blogger last week. The one who took over for Texan's Chick. The guy is a real tool. Always claiming to have inside knowledge about things when he is just guessing or getting stuff of the internet. Like Sly used to do. Hey, maybe he IS Sly. LOL.

Forget Charles "ittybitty" Spencer for a minute...

What the heck happened? I'm all excited about the upcoming 2008 NFL Draft and just like in 2004 or 2005, I can't find the page! Did I get banned? What should I do? Do I go to the other board where the posters complain about font size, etc? Am I in hell? Should I just give in and become friggin broncos fan? DO i just start getting into basketball?

And the crying began...full blown man tears.

Yet I did not give up nor give in. Persevere and you shall be rewarded I told myself! And here we are...just like a period of time with no woman in your life and you get back in THAT saddle again.

Somebody tell Ric if he's ever in Colorado and needs a good azz kickin to give me a call.

Eheh, man, I can't read that blog any more. Less commenting from the blog host would be a major improvement... i.e., just post the topic du jour and get out of the way.....


Welcome coloradodude....

Yes, welcome (back) coloradodude. Glad you finally made it here. We had a good time posting threads on the draft.

Not everyone has found us here yet, but soon I hope.

That's the only place I can find anything on it....and it's just one line that says they are close to releasing him.

http://blogs.chron.com/fanblogtexans...rosevel_1.html

It wouldn't surprise me if he does get cut, but I think the Texans are going to wait until they have to make the cuts to get to 80 in camp....we have been waiting for two years? already. Why not wait a few more weeks.

If he does get cut, maybe Maddox can put in a good word for him and hook him up with a job delivering furniture for a year or two before he makes his big comeback.

That is just a shame. A third round pick who was the LT of the future and so much promise cut short by injury. In some ways, I can understand why NFL players try to get those huge signing bonuses, one play and you could be all done. Of course, if someone gave me 10 or 15M, I could live comfortably the rest of my life.

Well shoot, hold on, I couldn't find a link either. In Navy parlance, I guess I would have to say "Belay that!" I sure don't want to pile anymore badluck on Spencer. He has certainly had enough of it already. I will keep looking, but I am dreadfully sorry for having posted any misinformation.
