    You guys must have been lulled to sleep by his subdued delivery - b/c the guy said a lot of things that I agreed with, and to you homers, I am the devil.

    In all honesty, the guy was kind of slippery in how he delivered the shiv... wouldn't scream and shout, he'd leave that for Tom Pippines, but he'd throw out some pretty tough criticism at the coaching staff - he was very critical of Capers.

    Since my POV is swept under the rug most of the time, it is always nice to hear commentators that won't hit the prerecorded positivity button when we all know what we saw was a mess. If I found myself agreeing with Vandermause most of the time - then you guys must not have been listening to what he was saying. Sure, he did his share of positivity pieces, but in his post-game comments on Packer Blitz, he usually called a spade a spade.

    The last article of his I read he was touting how good Capers did and even said he deserved a raise.

    JFC guy, the sky isn't falling and you're not a misunderstood genius screaming at the wind.
