Ahman Green's career could be over

[cpk1994]

Honestly...why would ANYONE want Green back?

Ask Woody.

A lot of people were very unhappy with Ted Thompson for not resigning Ahman (GBR, for example). I want GBR to publicly apologize to Ted Thompson for this.

Already done that in a few crow eating threads, in fact I think I even promised never to think about slashing his tires again, either. Na, that one might be a stretch

JH - we'd be here for weeks if we starting pulling every stupid statement that ever came out of your mouth. The only difference is that yours would never stop. Totally classless to post what you did.

Weeks? Years GBM.

Rastak,

What the H happened to AP today ? Shutout in PR playoffs; I'll be one and done after today. My opponent didn't score well but after a long string of many good weeks my guys were even worse today

my bad, you're right, Ras

Not sure but the 9ers seem to be playing the run. Vikes were throwing the ball more than I expected.

I don't mind disagreements, in fact, I like the discussion. But the attacks on TT were vitriolic and shrill, and that bothered me greatly. It didn't seem to be enough for people to not agree with TT's moves, or to criticize the job he was doing. The guy was sometimes painted as some kind of Satan, like he was deliberately wrecking the team so he could make it "his." And that whole thing about trying to force Favre into retirement because TT was jealous and needed to make the team his and only his...well, come on. So it is tempting to want to throw this kind of thing back in some people's faces.

Thompson's a public figure, and open to public critisism. Some of it reached ridiculous levels - in my opinion. But Ted's a big boy, and I'm sure he knew what he was signing up for when he took the gig. And while I disagreed with much of the critisism, I didn't think the critisism alone really crossed the line from a forum behavior standpoint. And on the surface, there certainly seemed to be plenty of reasons to be a Doubting Thompson.

The stuff that bothered me was when some called other posters stupid, blind or lacking of football IQ just for supporting the guy. Some of it went so far as to ridicule those who even dared to hope that things might turn out. Some cocky buggers denied the mere possibility of success. That's the stuff that I think crosses the line. Now I'd be the last guy to hold myself up as the gold standard for forum behavior. But even I try to conform to some standards.
