Dude, the point is, the sky didn't fall yesterday. Everyone just F'n relax. Have a laugh. Ha ha, funny funny. No big deal. Jeez, did this really warrant a drawn out explanation? It's obvious that some people "got it." If you don't like the post, ignore it. I won't be offended, I promise. BTW: as far as low expectations, I never for a moment thought we were good enough to lose by ten to the Bears. I never thought we had the talent to hold them to ten. As I've said elsewhere, I think yesterday had a lot to do with the refs. It doesn't matter though. It's spilled milk. I'm done with it now. I figured everyone could use a laugh. Sorry if you were more in the mood to be pissy.
Whats wrong with you Alio. Get rid of Leon? You obviously didn't watch the game yesterday,because if you did you would have seen that it was all the Pretzel guy in section 321's fault.
Good one Alio, but you forgot to mention Kerry Rhodes. This kid is way overrated, IMO. He's the one who lined up on the onsides kick and tipped the Bears off. It's his fault the play didn't work! Then he runs around selfishly making plays to obviously feature himself and spotlight his own ego! Who needs a guy like that? Besides, I heard he drives an overpimped Hummer. This is definitely not a "Mangini guy." He needs to go too!
I actually felt bad for the pretzel guy. He only made $10 yesterday, then got jacked for it by Howie Long. F U FOX! I thought about including Rhodes in this, but Bubbles was so non-existent yesterday, I didn't think he made enough of an impact to warrant his name being mentioned. I figured we'd just trade him quietly at some point and be done with it.
I love it........but i have to say that i definitely thought we were going to exceed expectations. Maybe even more than RobA(I just dont have a chance to post my optimism all the time). Do the people who are all upset now remember last year at all?? are you fukin kidding me?? From week 3 it was horrible, we lost 8 straight at one point in case you forgot...... We have a really good chance of being 10-6, or even 9-7(which just thinking about it puts me in a good mood) I could not be more happy with our progress. We had a great draft, fixed the Cap issues, and have a lot of picks for this draft. Honestly i would like to see them compete for a wild card, but if they dont it wasnt expected from the beginning. I dont think people undertstand that without Chad this year getting our team going, we would probly be 3-7 or 2-7. He won us those games, and unfortunatly he had a part in us losing on sunday. Thats it, we lost to a really good team that we could have beaten, just like the colts. those 2 teams combined are 18-2. Instead of being happy that we competed and made it hard for them in OUR house, you automatically go negative. You all must be just very depressed, sad people. Every week your gonna find someone to take you anger out on. You proved it when we BEAT the PATS last week..... *im refering to the darksiders as "you"
Unnaceptable punk. I want a run down of every little detail. I'll expect a 7 paragraph post of what you REALLY think.
dude thats fine. So I didnt miss anything, not sure why you thought it was funny then that the joke went over my head... as far as not agreeing with it goes....why should I just not respond? I dont get it. I thought that was the purpose of the message board. I saw your sarcasm and realized your point but countered with the fact that Chad cannot be lumped into the other sarcasm. I thought I made a perfectly reasonable post to continue the conversation. Youre normally always up for a good debate no? No the sky is not falling, but yes Chad needs to be replaced for us to go further. Some wont except that, they instead make fun of the people who are upset about losing....maybe its me or maybe some of you enjoy the losing:beer:
Trade him quietly? You'd better hope so, because what are you going to get for him now? Don't expect Bill Belichick to offer you more than a 7th Round for him, I'll tell you that right now. And speaking of draft picks, when I think of all the recent 4th Round picks we literally squandered, it makes me sick to my stomach. Rhodes in the 4th last year, then Leon Washington and Brad Smith this year. Just plain disgusting how you can throw away such high picks on garbage like that. Our FO stinks.
I blame the box of animal crackers I bought for the game that said, "DO NOT EAT IF SEAL IS BROKEN". I knew we were in for a long afternoon when I found a busted barker and had to toss the box.
:rofl:^ I just remembered something! I got a slim jim at the gas station and it said "Open Here", well I didn't like being bossed around by a damn piece of meat so I waited until I got home. I blame the Slim Jim..:sad: and myself.
Jonnyd, what I meant about not responding is if you didn't take this for the joke thread that it was meant to be, just let it go. Not "don't have an opinion." You're right, I'm usually up for a good debate. I wasn't really looking for one here. I've argued in Chad's favor elsewhere. I didn't plan on it here. We disagree on Chad and how far he can take us. It's all subject to your own POV.
I think there are a couple of those out there already. I'm too lazy to look for them now. Here's a beer, :beer:, all even?
i see the point of your post and your right, alot of us got overexcited after last week. but guess what? we are good enough to beat the bears. should we? not really. but the bears will self implode in the playoffs ala Grossman. i understand you want the finger pointing to stop cuz when it comes down to it the bears are the better team. but, Pennington has been horribly inconsistent and if it werent for the Lions game he'd have been sucking for all but 3 games this year. he doesnt have the strongest arm, thats fine. but when your sposed to be smart and accurate, dont make grossman look like hes the better QB. thats just sad. im not calling for Penny's head. but if this play goes on any longer, he needs to be forgotten and we need to move on. in the papers hes done everything but accept an iota of the responsibility. "somethings wrong weve got to fix it." "we just need to get back to playing like we did in the beginning of the year" he needs to just take his lumps and regain his confidence. cuz now I think hes at the point where he feels hes playing for his job weekly and its showing on the field. he said for the first time in his career "the confidence isnt there". either way, we werent sposed to win? i cant fully agree with that when you only lose by 10 with -2 in the turnover margin. our defense gave up the run, but still gave our O, PLENTY, I repeat, PLENTY of chances to win. so im not calling Chad a bum, I love wathcing him succeed. but people need to start saving the excuses because "a few bad games" is turning into a long stretch now. lets just hope this week, they really examine the reads and calls chad is making, and he can get his confidence back and actually look "cerebral and accurate" again. sorry thats my "rant" but i flew up from Tampa for the game so I wont bite my tongue to appear level headed on this one. AND YOU SHOULDVE SCAPEGOATED SOMEONE ELSE FOR THE THREAD TITLE!!!
Why haven't we cut Ben Graham yet? 3 touchbacks when we needed him to pin them deep. He really let us down yesterday. If the Jets had gone for it on 4th and 12 it would have shown the CS and the entire regime just have no faith in him at all.
