    Hopefully this response won't fit your definition of the usual, and hopefully it's ok that I replied.

    Your statement of fact is completely messed up again.

    Harris, Driver, Kampman, Jenkins......etc., etc., etc. All kept. All making more, not less.

    Well, I guess that since we have Harris, Driver, Kampman, Jenkins......etc., etc., etc, all signed and making more money, we really dont need an O-line that can block without the help of the TE's and Fullbacks for added protection. Is that the strong base that was mentioned earlier in this thread? The strong base to build on?

      Maybe, maybe not. But I fail to see what that has to do with you screwing up your facts again.

        Not exactly something to get hung up on. What do you want? Specific examples every time somebody posts something? It was simply a broad statement that expresses how I feel about one of Thompsons many fuck ups.

        Perhaps I should have said that Thompson came into town and brilliantly dismantled our O-line. That he replaced veteran talent with his rookie draft picks, He sure saved money there, funny thing is, without the help of the TE's and the Fullbacks, these guys couldnt block my grandmother. Would that be factual enough for you?

        One other thing, you act as if Thompson should recieve a "Get Out of the Dog House Free" card, just because he signed guys that were already on the team, to longer and more lucrative contracts. As if that makes up for passing on Free Agents as if they were not worth looking into at all. Bubba Franks was also re-signed by Thompson to a longer, more lucrative contract, looks like that was a great idea.

        P.S. Its ok that you replied. You have my permission to reply whenever you want to. knock yourself out.

          You might start with a reasonable amount of accuracy, and skip the gross exaggerations.

            Well there you go again - screwing up the facts. I didn't act any such way. I merely responded to your post with what actually happened vs. what you said happened. Thompson in fact, signed those guys. I added no editorial comment on Ted's performance - complimentary or disparaging.

            Go read it again. Try reading slower. Pretend that you'll be tested on it later.

            Son, you can't go through life making shit up and expecting not get called on it.

              Nah, if he was smart, he'd just start criticizing what everyone else said and NEVER talk about his point of view. That's worked quite well for you, hasn't it?

                Funny.
                "There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

                    Ya know SC, i guess I never have bothered to look at things from your point of view. Maybe I never thought that anything you had to say was worth reading........ or maybe you have never really expressed your own thoughts. Either way, I honestly do enjoy your .......output.......

                      Son, like I said. Just get your facts straight. It'll be ok.

                          Good thing you're such a pussy, because at this rate it's going to take all 9 lifetimes.

                              I was just checking out the Texans website, and I am actually somewhat impressed. They have Mike Flanagan, Kevin Barry, Ahman Green, and Vonta Leach. The fact that they have those players does not necessarily impress me, as much as the fact that they went out, and got themselves veterans that know the system that they are trying to implement.

                              I think it would be a little narrow minded to say that they wasted money in free agency to pick up a bunch of has beens. Flanagan started nine games for them last year before going on injured reserve with broken ribs. We all know that Green still has wheels. From what I had read, Vonta Leach helped improve their run game last year. Now they also have Kevin Barry in the fold.


                              So now Sherman has Veteran players who know his system. Guys that can start while the rookies take time to learn the system. Looks to me like he has his run game where he wants it. Can we say the same?
