Perfect Match for WR issue

[retailguy]

You don't accuse me, but it seems that there are attacks and piling on going in both directions and your suggestion of "mob mentality" seems to include us all in the mob. I don't see the mob or the clique, but maybe that's just me. I have read everything posted about you and by you and when you posted your credentials as gureski did, I did not see the "masses" mock you, I saw SC mock you. He does not represent the clique to me, more someone who saw very good credentials and a couple of people making fun with the joke. I (and many others here) am not against you. We merely have differing opinions and I have been finding the attacking of each other rather than attacking of the information that people are posting (with fact of our own) to be bothersome no matter who does it.

It was more than SC, but whatever. I guess you can consider yourself part of the clique if you want, but that's up to you. I'll not be part of it any longer, if I ever was, that's for sure.

I don't care if anyone is against me or not. It's just clear that differing opinions are not really wanted. Well formed opinions challenge you to "think", but this group just wants everyone to agree with them.

That's all. Not really the type of discussion I want. Definitely not the type of discussion that I respect.

That's just me. Who cares?

I haven't attacked you. And I disagree with your FA idea right now, but I also agree with what Patler said about not knowing the results of our offseason adventures until the next season. You may be right. I may be right. It doesn't make the one who wasn't an idiot. It simply means they were wrong. I am simply willing to wait and see. I don't see you as "the minority" for thinking that Sherman was a good GM. He took a shot. It didn't work. It ultimately cost him his job, but to suggest that his replacement is intentionally not doing anything and suggesting that he MUST do something you want him to as part of his job description, I believe is wrong as well. It's TT's job and he will do it the way he sees best, just like Sherman did. Just like you do your job even when your decisions aren't popular.

Zig, I don't recall accusing you of attacking me. However, there has been plenty of attacks and piling on. When I've decided to fight back, and respond as I've been responded to, I'm accused of dirty pool.

The mob mentality is alive and well. If you disagree with the majority, there is a price to pay. Ziggy, St. Lou is right. there's a clique here, and if you don't "play by the rules" there is a price to pay.

Go read what people have posted about me in the last two months. Go ahead, READ IT. Just today, Guerski posts about his bachelors degree in econ. Then I post my credentials, and the "masses" mock me.

What about him, Zig? What about him? The only diff is that he's on the "right" side of the mob opinion. That's it.

Actually I agree with much of RG's views about Ted Thompson; I've just been involved in separate debates with other posters about his lack of activity in addressing the multiple holes at RB, S, TE, WR...etc...that we have.

State your opinions and back them up, if nobody agrees with you, who cares.

[retailguy]

What was said that pissed you off so?

No one thing in particular. It's a culmination of things over the last six months. Tired of it more than anything.

There have been a few discussions in the last couple of days that haven't gone well. Today one occurred where one member posted something, I responded in similar fashion.

Mocking attacks directed at me, none at the other party. The 'mob' agreed with his point.

Really quite simple bulldog. probably unimportant as well. but you asked.

Seriously, why do you care what the others think?

maybe I'm just too sensitive...

Maybe, grow some super thick skin and post away. Hopefully tomorrow we will get a signing.

People here really don't like it when you give them back what they give you.

We will NOT have a signing tomorrow. When we get one, we'll never have heard of him, that much is sure.

Not many guys left that can step in as a clearcut starter... but we'll see.

Does this mean I can mockingly call you "Mr. Sensitive" from now on?

Like I told B the other day, maybe it's time to go and watch your kids sleep for a little bit (he reminded me hugging is not appreciated this time of night).

call me whatever you want. just don't call me part of the clique.

Just for the record, I never said I have a degree in econ. I just talked about a taco to make a point about market value and overpaying. You're confusing me with someone else.

ehh never mind its not worth it

I deal with this whenever I go on my usual rants, it is all part of it and it is fun. I enjoy the banter, don't take it so serious.

What he said, or else I will start shouting out all the slang terms for my weiner that I can think of.

that's a mature response. Very impressed.

christ chill out

Sorry RG - it wasn't intended to be personal. Just bust'n balls.
