If I ever meet you in person, I will cut your head off and dance around the NEZ with it. Of course, your head will be tazered right before everyone pisses on it.

You saved that bologne so it could be your 2nd post! K.O.C. is right, this is for you....

Tasteless and uncalled for. Let's leave the thug stuff in the north end zone.

 

[nidan]

I agree

Feel free to disagree with his opinions but cut out the rhetoric. You are flying close to the dead zone, don't make me hurt you.

 

[Mrh182]

Wow...everyone needs to take a step back and calm down...this wasn't an "Anti-cards" post by any means...it's just funny looking at how the predictions were...and how they ended up. Such as McCown proving to Danny, but is no longer the starter. Shipp running for 1000, but got hurt. Even Seattle being in the Super Bowl (I suppose anything is possible, but I'd doubt it). Can you not look at something like this and find humor in it?

I think in order for this board to be properly managed you need to see all sides of it. Maybe Koc shoudnt have said what he said, but he was hurting. Go to the everything else board and look under the Welp... topic.

 

[thirty-two]

mrh182, no worries, I kind of chuckled at the article, too.

Thanks for posting it and welcome to the board.

newbies buy, so I'll take an order of hashed browns and an orange juice - thanks!

OK....I took the time to follow your instructions, and checked that forum out.

I will repeat here, what I posted there:

I don't "get" why you are posting these diatribes here and there on this matter.

I'm quite sure everyone can sympathize with any grief he may be going through, but the simple fact is, his post was entirely out of order and unjustified....breaking of the rules.

He chose to do what he did. He has to accept the responsibility for that.

I think you need to give it a rest.

Are you talking about me here? If so...my God...I think some of you fans need to take a deep breath and a step back and look at how the topic was presented. Had I said "Haha, they suck, blah blah"...ok then complain. When I say that it's out of humor because things aren't going the way we hope it would, why complain still? Not everything is life and death here. I guess if you can't find humor in the projections not coming true, then whatever. But don't say I'm "breaking rule" and was "Unjustified" by making this. Now, if I start flaming players and people...we'll chat. Otherwise, try to ease up on it. I dunno, I'm a Navarre fan...maybe you're a McCown fan..? Who knows..either way..take a joke when it's presented to you.

KOC - you okay dude? I didn't find anything even close to being negative in the post thread.

And Gee - even though I think he's loony tunes and really has a very poor grasp of NFL football - Tango is a very impassioned Cardinal fan and to say otherwise is pretty foolish.

Can't we all just get along
