Bungles owner does not plan to trade Carson Palmer

[SirClintonPortis]

NFL.com news: Bengals owner holds firm on denial of Palmer's trade request

All I can say is:
1. Palmer better make good on his retirement threat
and...
2. The owner is a moron.

[Son Of Man]

That's why the Bunguls won't win anything. Ego over business!!!

For all the shit we gave Dan Snyder, just be glad our owner isn't Mike Brown. He's more concerned with money than he is with winning.

[Ruhskins]

Not surprising. I know people like to sh*t on our ownership, but the Bengals could have easily have a ton of picks between Chad Ochocinco (a season or two ago) and now Palmer. Whoever loses out on the Kolb sweepstakes is likely to overpay for Palmer is he was available.

[SmootSmack]

Not a surprise. But also, what else is he going to say?

[NC_Skins]

They need to have a reality show on some NFL people and name it "Biggest Idiot". Each week, they each act as normal and the one that does the least idiotic thing gets booted off. Cast so far:

Mike Brown
Al Davis
Vinny Cerrato
Daniel Snyder
Jerry Jones
AJ Smith


I just pity Bengal fans sometimes. Brown could have had a 1st and 3rd (potentially another 1st based on performance escalators) for Ocho a few years back courtesy of our very own village idiot. They turn that down and now are turning down at least a 2nd rounder for Palmer, who would rather get nothing than deal him. This situation reminds me exactly what happened to Barry Sanders. The Lions were getting offers for Barry years after he retired..lol ****ing idiots.

Well even if they were planning on trading him, they'd probably say they weren't. Given that they aren't able to trade him right now, there is no reason for them to tell everyone they are going to. Only the redskins destroy a players value before trading them.

I wouldn't say that. Rather he's more concerned with winning meaningless battles then he is with winning the war.

[Uncle Skins]

Someone is going to give. I doubt Palmer will retire. That sounds like an idle threat. He had a tough season this past year too, I'm sure he doesn't want to go out on that note.

aint that the truth

[MTK]

The Eagles have been open about trading away Kolb... is that destroying his value?

I would just say in that case folks can draw a line to Vick as the reason they are trading him, maybe if the Bengals were open to trading away Palmer some may thing he has diminishing talent thus lowering his value.

Scratch that what I said earlier about offering Mike Brown a 1st and 3rd. Vinny has set the record straight once and for all. That idiot offered Brown TWO #1 picks for Ocho.

The Redskins once offered two No. 1 picks for Chad Ochocinco - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post

“I mean, I was part of trying to trade for Chad Ochocinco, and when they said no, they meant no. And Marvin [Lewis] would have done it. Two No. 1s, that’s exactly what it was. And I talked to Katie Blackburn’s husband all the time, and he just said listen. I talked to him at the owners’ meetings, and I called him. He said no is no, quit calling, we’re not trading him...

I remember Ocho was over the age of 30 at the time, and this clown offered two No. 1s for him. How this clown still gets interviews is beyond me. How Mike Brown still is able to walk around Cincinnati is beyond me. They should run that guy out of town for turning down that for Ocho. I'm glad they saved us from ourselves. Much like the Bears did with Briggs.

[SmootSmack]

I don't know why he's saying that now, because it wasn't two no. 1's. And I know that's not what he said two years ago, or however long ago it was.

Oh well, in the past now.
