spent the last how many years as a Chiefs fan seeing guys get cut and going

"yay! we are at the top of the waiver order! bring him in for a look"

feels ****ing good to be at the bottom, with the winning teams, knowing there's not a chance we get a guy like this lol.

Not sure Childress minded the Patriots lovefest as much as Moss's comments that he offered to help the Vikings with a game plan against New England by telling them stuff and he was supposedly ignored.

**The Franchise** · 11-01-2010, 01:23 PM

Honestly.....where is he going to go?

What team is going to want to take him on?

I think Moss did himself in last night during his PC. All the man love for BB and the Pats then he purportedly criticized the Vikings.

With Moss it's me me me. Don't think you guys need this kind of player. You're young, talented and in 1st place. Why throw a piece of bad meat into an otherwise good stew.

**Rain Man** · 11-01-2010, 01:24 PM

Maybe since he lost his bye week he wanted to get paid for that 17th game.

**doomy3** · 11-01-2010, 01:25 PM

Hell yeah, put a claim in.

This may have been part of it?

The guy is a walking cancer.

Re-acquired in October from the New England Patriots in exchange for a 2011 third-round pick, Moss caught 13 passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns in his second stint with the Vikings, who originally selected him with the 21st overall pick of the 1998 NFL Draft.

Moss caught one pass for 8 yards in Sunday's 28-18 loss to the Patriots, after which Moss made some critical comments about the Vikings while expressing his admiration for the Patriots' franchise.

"This is no disrespect to the Minnesota Vikings and their organization ... the captains, Wilfork, Tommy boy, Mayo...I'm forgetting somebody...Kevin Faulk. Man, I miss them guys," Moss said on Sunday night. "I miss the team. It was hard for me to come here and play. It's been an up and down roller-coaster emotionally all week. And then to be able to come in here and see those guys running plays that I know what they're doing and the sense that they had on the field, the running game. So I kind of know what type of feeling they have in that locker room, and I just want to be able to tell the guys that I miss the hell out of them, every last helmet in that locker room."

Because the traded deadline has passed, Moss is subject to the NFL's waiver system.

The 0-7 Buffalo Bills have top priority, followed by the Dallas Cowboys and Carolina Panthers (1-6), and 2-6 teams such as the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos. Detroit, Cleveland, and Cincinnati are next in line, but are unlikely to add high-profile receiver at this point in the season.

The 3-5 San Diego Chargers, however, might have interest in adding Moss for their attempt to turn around another slow start to the season.

New England has the NFL's best record, and are therefore unlikely to be awarded Moss, should they put a claim in.

This is just a distraction from us getting onto the buisness of hating the Raiders

The ESPN guys were on him yesterday for quitting on routes, so I guess this isn't surprising. It sure is tantalizing, Haley has plenty of experience with diva WRs. And he could help. He could also be a circus that derails everything.

What's a funny scenario is....Belichek tells Moss...."we've got this sucker of a GM who wants to give us a 3rd rounder for you......can you play along for a couple weeks so we can get the pick.....then, you say a couple foolish things to get waived.....we'll see you back in about a month!"
