No response to my earlier assertions, which isn't much of a surprise. And more ad hominem attacks, what's new? This board is just drowning in class. I'll leave the vultures to pick over the bones, since any sort of decent discussion is clearly out of the question.

Again, where was my claim of being a great football mind? Quite a few people, including yourself, seem to be willing to ascribe positions to me that I never claimed to hold. Why is that? Could the posting of a thread really elicit that sort of contempt? Or is the more likely cause of all this...

Again, I really love the implication that somehow, starting a thread on a messageboard constitutes a claim of one's opinion being "all so important" and blathering it to the "universe". I'm sure our distant cousins living on a planet orbiting alpha centauri are going to be thrilled. Your stake...

They're typos, you mean? Perhaps a dictionary and thesaurus would be a worthy investment, sir.

And clearly, you being the very important person you are, should be arbiter of such things. Amazing how many people feel the need to harp on the idea that someone would start a thread about their reaction to something that happened to their favorite team. Such a trespass to commit against you...

Is that supposed to be a pejorative? Not that it's true, but it would explain your previous response perfectly.

Yes, because clearly, starting a thread, apparently an act consuming massive resources and possible only in the cases of the most malignant narcissism, is so much worse of a transgression than posting a snarky picture that illustrates in no uncertain terms the contemptible nature that inhabits...

Yeah, I can see what you mean on the first point. I'd hardly call Belichick inept, otherwise there wouldn't be three Lombardi trophies parked at Foxboro, but this deal seems to be terrible.

I keep hearing that there was "no market", but really, there's still, what, 7 weeks until the draft? And the reports of the Buccaneers offering more certainly doesn't help that line of arguing. And to everyone complaining about another thread being posted on this topic, feel free to snipe at...

Hilarious that someone who posts a picture like that has the sheer hubris to talk about other people's over-inflated senses of self-worth. The hypocrisy is staggering.

I'm sorry that you're operating under the assumption that I care about your opinion. I don't care if you think this is a crap thread, this is a shock to the system as far as I'm concerned, and I don't need some little turd posting that kind of stupid drivel aimed at me.

I went out of town, to a location devoid of TV, internet access, even mobile service, this past weekend, and just returned to see Cassel has been traded for a second round pick? Are you $@!#ing kidding me? Tell me this is a joke or something. And Pioli was the guy boning the Pats like this? I'm...

Yeah, that's why two years ago, he had two... count them, TWO sacks. The entire year. At a position he wouldn't be playing here. He's a proven regular season sack artist that disappears in the playoffs and has no experience in this defense. Giving up a potential franchise quarterback, let alone...

I cannot fathom how people here are so in love with Peppers. He's an underachiever with a track record of disappearing in big games. The last option would be the best, nab the #3 then trade down for additional picks. Failing that, spending the #3 on Curry wouldn't be the worst thing the Patriots...

Re: Vrabel traded to KC It's already been confirmed that the deal is for draft picks. If it was for Gonzalez, it would have come out right away. Vrabel has confirmed himself that he's been traded, by Reiss.

Re: Vrabel traded to KC I and others had noted how he lost his burst last season. He was never the fastest guy, but his closing burst on a quarterback was fantastic. With that gone, he was just a wily veteran that could get by on smarts and instincts, but was no longer an impact guy. I thought...

If by fixed you mean horribly mutilated, then absolutely.

Yeah, I remember initially the Lions wanted more value in draft picks, so Bodden was substituted instead. He wasn't very good for the Lions, but that team was so incredibly atrocious, I can't really blame him. If he returns to anything approaching his Cleveland form, he'd be a steal at a...

Re: Fred Taylor Signed I think people vastly overestimate the "mentoring" effect. Maroney is an established veteran in the league who's largely looking to overcome injury issues. Hopefully, Taylor does rub off on Maroney (especially if he can somehow allow Maroney to mimic his relative...

Re: Mangini trades Winslow away... Considering all the cap space they've been clearing, a run at Cassel hardly seems out of the question to me.
