Bucs Sign Paralyzed Former Rutgers Player Eric Legrand

[Argus Plexus]

Why can't the Saints** be more like that

[Inimicus]

I hate the Bucs more than any other team in the league.

But this was a top shelf, high class move.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

how is he going to play? The only reason they did it because Shiano is their head coach

[tattoorhino]

I hate the Bucs a little less today. Tomorrow they will go back to sucking. Wait they still suck today, just not as much.

[4Corners]

Gotta admit that this is a great, classy move by a team I loathe.

Also gotta admit that Schiano is off to an excellent start in TB. Maybe this wasn't as bas as a hire as well all thought.

[Verge]

Incredibly classy move, I applaud them.

[savage]

i hope that they keep him on the roster.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Wow, classy move by the bucs. Good for them.

[Panthers128]

I don't see the point of this. I already knew about LeGrand and spinal injuries before the Bucs made this move. Also I'm not sure what miracle cure they're going to find for spinal injuries. And it's not really something that should be given priority. There's enough genetic diseases around and cancers that people can end up with without putting themselves at risk.

And even if you ignore all those there's people starving in the world. Spinal injury research would not be at the top of places I'd donate to.

I guess the Panthers should go sign some paralyzed players for the publicity. And maybe they can sign one of the children in Joseph Kony's army and they could posthumously sign Trayvon. We're gonna be the talk of the town.

It's a symbolic move for those of you who didn't find that part obvious. It's likely that whatever "salary" is actually a donation to a charity or to research.

[Mr. Scot]

Nice gesture

Outstanding class by them.

Am I the only one who thinks this is stupid? The nfl and the bucs are a business not charities. If he wanted to put him on his staff I'd be fine with that, but signing him is a waste of money that doesn't belong to the head coach.

i doubt the head coach signed him.
