Mr. Scot

Best uniforms ever? I actually like this idea. Heck, most major league sports have some sort of all star competition. We seem to be going more in the direction of basketball as opposed to baseball.

I just find it funny to think there was a time when players truly took it seriously.

My current choice for an interim would be Tabor. Campen's done it before too.

We had this discussion regarding Rhule's "we're close" comments. Truth is a relatively small percentage of NFL games are outright blowouts. Most games are close, but people mistake the idea that consistently losing games by a small margin means something positive. Losing is losing too...by an inch, or a mile, it's still losing.

I think even the biggest Dorsey fan probably has to admit this is pretty funny

The Brown family in Cincinnati too... As I recall, there was talk of forcing them to sell the team a few years back. (part of me wonders if Tepper will get to that point down the road)

Nah. That post actually was a joke that some folks didn't get But Lord knows a discussion of self important people wouldn't be complete without you

Happy Pro Bowl Games?

Feel free...Heaven knows I have my share of "fans" who'd rather talk about me than about football. I started my last thread thanking another poster for the idea and then writing out an analysis. It's actually how I prefer to start conversations as opposed to "Here's my take. It's proven fact. Deal with it." I suppose I could go with something like "all of you are beneath me" but I prefer to think of it like my Mom did, i.e. "if you've gotta tell me how smart you are, you're probably not". Case in point

I defer to the expert...

I've gone back and forth on that. It's valid that Rhule is the one common denominator, but does he even have enough offensive knowledge to leave a "stamp"? You previously could have said his stamp was "run the ball, stop the run" but then he inexplicably switched over to "passing is what wins in the NFL". Gotta figure that was McAdoo. One thing's I'd say though: The calls for McAdoo to be the interim coach if Rhule does get fired are probably gone.

irony is a wonderful thing

Well, I've never started a thread declaring that everyone who disagreed with me was a crybaby and I was better than them, so at least I've got that going for me

Jim Carrey gif incoming...

I didn't see you differentiating much of anything, but I do see you now trying to spin your opening post as "Hey, I was just joking". That at least tells me you might recognize just how douchebaggy that post sounded.

Better than the Matt Rhule Fan Club meetings are

I remember when it went from conversation about him being fired to him getting a big extension. The Cardinals are definitely a horribly run organization.

Keep trying, dude. It;s at least entertaining.

But you're not condescending or anything, right? And no, sorry but you didn't hurt my feelings. Did give me a chuckle, though Quick tip though: If you actually do want to have a conversation about a topic without sounding like a self-important prick, maybe don't start that conversation off by claiming to be better than everyone who disagrees with you. (it makes for fewer eye rolls)

Not a clue I don't have "minions" dude, but I am a fan of Despicable Me. And if you wanna claim to not be the condescending type, fewer accusations to people performing oral sex in your comebacks would be a good first step.

Was that Novacek? I vaguely remember it being a tight end.

Brandon Staley has been getting loads of attention since last year. This season might be a "come back down to earth" moment.

Nah Now, if I were that type of person, I might try starting threads with lines like "ALL OF YOU WHO DISAGREE WITH ME ARE CRYBABIES (WHICH MAKES ME BETTER THAN YOU)!!!" I probably wouldn't resort to stuff like saying I read posts in a Cookie Monster voice either, but hey...

Heh Let's just say I'm pretty comfortable with how my posts compare to yours on that front.

I've seen flag football games between sixth graders that generated more excitement and competitiveness than the last few Pro Bowls. Makes a lotta sense... I'd be on board.
