(This post was NOT sarcastic, I am very sad to see one of the best NFL players gone for the season)
I don't believe this sucks too bad. Sure, he is gone for the season, but better one season than the rest of his career. I admire the guts to go out and try to play, however, there were not many that agreed with that choice. It is a good thing he reconsidered.
Quote:1. I don't watch boxing, so no I dont say that. I am a TRUE fan of football because I like to see my team's best players beat their teams best players. People who want their players to take people out arent football fans, they are fans of violence and should go watch an NHL best of hockey fights video. As for me being a true football fan, Ill address it again in a later point.
Fans come in all shapes and sizes, but they all accept that Football is a violent game, and, therefore, are all fans of violence to some degree. I don't know what kind of football fan you are, but I am starting to believe it must involve flags or two hand touch... And are you trying to imply I said I want people taking people out? I thinkest you need to reread...
Quote:2. You obviously dont know much about football. Do you know who the Patriots started next to Tedy at Inside LB? Yes, that's right... the Patriots 1st round draft pick. they did have one, they chose to wait until the 3rd round to select a backup QB. so yes, they addressed backup QB in the draft AND they had a 1st. Do some research before you call someone else out and then make ignorant statements.
Oh yea, your right. They did trade up for a 1st R pick. At the same time there were only 31 picks in the fisrt round due to the penalty from cheating. This pick could have been used to address a back up QB. It is funny you think O'Connell... hahaha Come on man. The guy is a SD local. Sure he has size and speed and some good numbers but very inconsistant. Also, you have consider that he played in the Mountain West. I wish a local guy luck but I don't think he has addressed the needs of any NFL team. I have seen plenty and I smell trade. You'll see.
Quote:Spygate was a joke because the NFL gave the Patriots a penalty WELL above the supposed crime. Denver cheated to win a SB and lost only a 3rdround draft pick. Also, the Pats really needed that camera... they went 18-0 (before the Super Bowl) without it.
Well atleast now you are starting to admit they cheated, but you need to consider how long they used the camera. It was not one season, it was the entire time Belicheat has been there. How many seasons? How many Super Bowls? Looks like they got off cheap...
Quote:3. all I said was that the Patriots have the WEAKEST schedule in the NFL, which is a fact. I am a true fan. I believe a team is not made up of 1 player. I am not saying we need to get luck y either. try learning to read.
Okay TRUE football fan, tell me, how is the weakest schedule determined? That is right, it is composed of numbers from last year. So, how is this a fact for this season? It's Not!!! You have no idea what the rest of the league will do until it is all over this year. So, I can only read that as you saying if the Pats are lucky the rest will suck and might make the playoffs. Sure, you can count the Dolphins out for the most part but not to 1-15. the Bills look good and who Knows what Brett could start in NY. And the Wildcards look like they could be tight. Honestly, I hope the Pats get lucky...
