I just listened to it and what they talked about really wasn't anything groundbreaking. However, reading the story of how this got recorded in the first place, Buddy Nix must be either senile or really dumb.

Deadspin wrote:On Thursday afternoon, the pranksters called Buffalo's publicly listed front office phone number. They claimed to be Bucs GM Mark Dominik and asked to be transferred to Buddy Nix. To their surprise, they were. Panicking, they hung up as soon as he answered.
Then Buddy Nix called them back.
And he kept calling back. Into Thursday evening, resuming again on Friday morning, Nix's personal number kept lighting up their cell phone. They ignored it, until they came up with a plan. They would call Mark Dominik, claim to be Buddy Nix, and send the two on a phantom game of phone tag.
So they rang up the Buccaneers, but while on with Dominik's secretary, Buddy Nix called again. It was perfect. They answered Nix's call, then fell silent while they were patched through to Dominik. They put the call on speaker, recorded with a second cell phone, and sat back and listened to the fun.
Nix was also quoted as saying, "Dadgum, son, I've called you back a hundred times!" Sadly, this is classic material for the Dear Terrorists thread.

So the Vikings cut Antoine Winfield and picked up more than $7 million in cap room. Sounds like they're going to break the bank on Mike Wallace.

ive heard they will offer 13 million a year
and im hearing there is a good chance Revis will be traded to Tampa, and now im scared to death to hear how much Tampa might give up to get him, if its a 2nd this year and a 3rd or something next year im cool with it, but if its a first this year or next then i dont like it

I wish Tampa would go after Welker. I think he would compliment Freeman and Jackson really well.

Also, sounds like Wallace to Miami is done.

I wish InTrade still existed so that I could get an over/under on when Warren Sapp is finally fired from NFL Network.
