raping off skins is complete!

Your use of the term "raping" in reference to a football trade is insulting to anyone whose life has been impacted by rape. Get out a dictionary and find a new word.

Plus, who knows how this will turn out? Maybe it's a win-win-win. Why do we always have to beat down on the other guy. In my view everyone got what they want/need. Yipee.

quote from the article

"The Broncos, Falcons and Washington Redskins executed a three-way trade Wednesday, with the Broncos receiving draft compensation that will be determined based on where the Broncos and Redskins are slotted in the 2007 NFL Draft. The Redskins received running back T.J. Duckett from the Falcons at their end of the deal."

Falcons trade RB Duckett and receive WR Lelie in three-way trade
August 22, 2006
The Atlanta Falcons announced tonight that they have completed a three-way trade with the Washington Redskins and Denver Broncos in order to obtain veteran WR Ashley Lelie.

The Falcons traded RB T.J Duckett to Washington. The Redskins then traded an undisclosed 2007 draft choice to the Denver Broncos, who then sent WR Ashley Lelie to Atlanta.

"I don't even know how to put it into words, that is how excited I am," said Lelie. "The most exciting part of it is that I get to step back on to the football field. I've missed it. I'm excited that I have the opportunity to go to the Falcons, who have a great organization, a great owner and a great coaching staff. I'm looking forward to playing with Michael Vick and becoming a part of the nucleus that is already there on offense."

Lelie, 6-3, 200 pounds, enters his fifth season in the League after being selected in the first-round (19th pick overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft. He has played in 64 games with 40 starts and has tallied 168 receptions for 3,007 yards with 12 touchdowns. The Broncos have made it to the playoffs in three of the four seasons that Lelie has been with the team. In postseason play, he has totaled 10 catches for 152 yards and one touchdown in four games played with three starts. Lelie has led the League in yards-per-receptions average (17.9 avg.) since 2002, owning the highest yards-per-catch in the NFL in 2005 (18.3) and 2004 (20.1). He eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark (1,084 yards) in 2004. He has also recorded five 100-yard receiving games in his career. He finished his career at the University of Hawaii as the school's all-time leader in receptions (194), receiving yards (3,341) and touchdown receptions (32).

Duckett, 6-0, 254 pounds, also enters his fifth season in the NFL after being selected in the first-round (18th pick overall) in the 2002 Draft. A veteran of 54 games with 14 starts, he has tallied 552 rushes for 2,175 yards (3.9 avg.) with 31 touchdowns and 29 receptions for 233 yards in his four-year career. A former Michigan State alum, Duckett ranks sixth on the Spartans' career list with 3,379 rushing yards.

"Everyone really appreciates the professionalism in how T.J. Duckett handled himself when the trade rumors started to float around and that is what he should be commended for first and foremost," Falcons head coach Jim Mora said. "Secondly, we're excited to get a player of the caliber of Ashley Lelie."

Its to our benefit if our frequent trading partners in Washington, and in Atlanta, are happy with the results of our deals.

Remember back when Shanahan was fleecing people out of Day One picks for future car salesmen like Jamie Brown and Jeff Lewis? People became leery of trading with us.

I particularly enjoy three team transactions where the actual outcome of the deal seems nebulous. Keeps 'em coming back for more.

Shanahan is finally placing proper value on the importance of dealing from a position of strength and maneuverability on Draft Day. I couldn't be happier. We're already seeing huge dividends.

You're determined to teach a lesson nobody wants to learn.

It seems obvious to me that somewhere in there Washington has covered their ass in case they get hit with cluster injuries and finish 4-12.

Yeah, sometimes you gotta give a Slap to get the point across. You are right that the Skins ain't grabbing their ankles on this one. I think all the teams came out about right on this one.

Easy now hoss. I'm not a big fan of people being "politically correct", but using the term rape in regards to a trade is just stupid. Do you really think, Rocket, that the Madres raped the Rangers. Or did they simply get over. The term rape connotates a hell of a lot more than simply getting over.

I'm sorry, but yes, they raped them.

Way to go, Ashley. I can see why you're so damn happy, now that you're with a great organization, with a great owner and great coaches. And you get to be the #3 receiver right off the bat. Boy, you sure got your point across (whatever that was.) hmmm...

[halfcreek]

I think what we have here is a menage a trois.

[Kaylore]

This thread delivered on so many levels. I completely agree. One page and we already have a PC debate, analysis of the trade, analysis of the word rape, a cool picture of Cutler with Scheffler, the general oversensitiity of America and even Brahma bulls. All in one page and all the guy did was post a link with the title "trade complete." Well done.:)

[NOLA Bronco]

People defending the use of the word rape. Awesome. Lets try and stay classy and use some common sense. Have some respect for the folks who see that word and shutter in horror because of something that may have happened to them or a loved one. Its not tough to show just a little respect.

We all know thats not how you meant it, but there are so many other words in the english language.

[Clockwork Orange]

Yeah, and while you're at it, no one better make any flippant remarks like "going to war" or "when the bullets start flying." Gotta be sensitive to what someone might or might not find offensive. Can't be too careful, you know that not offending anyone should be priority number one.

[ludo21]

boy howdy, we sure did get a great deal from the skins..... that better? ;D

You could say that we killed the Redskins... But somebody who has known somebody that has been killed would be offended.

You could say that we pillaged the Redskins... But somebody who has been taken over by Vikings would be offended.

You could say that we robbed the Redskins... But somebody who has had something stolen from them would be offended.

Just sayin'.

Not only that but he is recalling the exploitation of an indigeneous population of native Americans!

Please don't say the word "Redskin." It's offensive to Native Americans.

I notice you sneak a euphemism for breast into every post, Kaylore.

The so-called PC world has you afraid to express your obsession directly, so you resort to veiled and oblique references.

Your reluctance to embrace your true nature fills me with feelings of angry indifference and defiant lethargy.

Screw you, man.

Guys, lets not blow this out proportion with a bunch of "I guess we can't say blank or blank then" stuff.

It was a simple comment and request. Is respecting that a big deal?

[Ron Mexico]

Well said. With that in mind, I'd like to say that we really Schottenheimer'd the Redskins today.

I was just skimming the Redskins site, and they confirmed it. It is in fact a rape. I was going to say a swindle, but they called it like it was... Here is the link... http://www.extremeskins.com/forums/showthread.php?t=165575

If Washington finishes with a better mark, Denver would receive third- and fourth-round picks....................i am tired of denver raping teams for picks,hell they would demand a 1st for dayne."

By the way, one guy had a thread stating T.J. Duckett as the next L.J. I love those crazy Redskins!

Instead fo rape...they should use the word "sodimized". It gives all the particulars without the violence.

They just confirmed that they do not understand the conditions of the trade.

[bendog]

So from what I've read here and elsewhere the eventual value of Lelie to Denver is going to be a high 3rd rounder? Right?

If so I don't think Wash got robbed. Fair deal. People could say Lelie wasn't worth the pick Den used to draft him, but then they got a better replacement for him with a second rd pick. Seems a wash to me.

[Arkansas Bronco]

The way Shanny worded this trade he may have confused both the falcons and the redskins and we get both there firsts and Duckett. Ha!

[ScottXray]

I think the trade benefits all three teams....and we get SOME value for our former 1st round pick, that very likely would have ended up sitting the year out. Kudos to Sundquist for getting at least the equivalent of a third.

Lelie is an idiot for the short term.....and will be the #1 receiver in Atlanta shortly. I agree that Lelie had a BAD ""fit"" in Denver.

Eventually he will find the right Team to be a star.....maybe.:rofl:

Of course the word does. Thats not the point. If someone here has had their mom/wife/sister or whoever raped, the word only means one thing. I am not being PC about and say you shouldn't use it. But if someone asks for you not to, show some courtesy and respect to that person and their request. Thats all it is, respect.

Just so everyone knows, both players passed their physicals. The only thing that can cancel the trade now is the league which isn't going to happen, so it is done.
