Some of you motherfugers could learn a thing from Coleman


top dawg

Recommended Posts

You fuging dirty-mouthed motherfugers who always talk poo in your normal course of conversation, so much so that you don't even realize it---you filthy fugs---consider our mentally strong safety as Christmas is upon us. 

Quote

 

The seventh-year player out of Ohio State made the conscious decision about four years ago to give up foul language.

“A couple of things helped,’’ Coleman said of that choice. “One, deepening my relationship in my faith. Also, my uncle was a reverend and some other people told me I don’t need to use that in my vocabulary.

“So I made myself aware of it. I realized a lot of times I was cussing and didn’t realize I was cussing. I was cussing just to cuss. Then it got to that point I said, 'I’ve got an issue.'"

One of Coleman’s inspirations to stop cursing was former Philadelphia and Denver safety Brian Dawkins. Coleman didn’t play with Dawkins during his four seasons (2010-13) with the Eagles, but he grew up admiring him.

“I know for a fact [NFL Films] would never really mike-up B-Dawk because he was always giving praise to God," Coleman said. “I always thought that was something special because of the player that he was, but also the person he was off the field."

 

I wouldn't put it past those ol' dirty bastards (Sorry, is that a cuss word?) to never ever want to mic a player up who can actually communicate without a potty mouth, especially in today's world where increasingly anything goes.

Seriously, people, I kind of enjoy this little known fact about Kurt Coleman, especially during this time of year. It is an example that we can all easily aspire to if we choose to do so. Perhaps a New Years resolution is in order. Consider it!

Merry Christmas!

I love Kurt. Man is a ballhawker. Fug RR, McD and Tre Boston for FUGGIN his season up. He should be leading the NFL in INTs this season as a FS. Jamal Adams will make that happen next season. 

 

 

I do miss those safeties back in the days. Dawkins, Troy, Bob Sanders, Sean Taylor, John Lynch and even dumbass Rodney Harrison that I grew up watching. Damn young safeties these days wanna be finesse and earn the top dollars as a cornerback like Jalen Ramsey. Guys are soft today. Kam Chancellor and TJ ward are the only two closest things to safeties back in the days.

My Grandpa used to tell us "A cuss word is a strong expression for a weak mind.." I don't remember him ever cussing... Growing up, Mom & Dad cussed just didn't drop f-bombs. The 1st time I heard my Mom use the word 'fug' was after I got caught stealing, wasn't a question how deep the poo I was in was....

 

i tell my kids "they're not bad words, they're adult words", and try to instill my Grandpa's lesson....

Good for him, but I'll cuss whenever I damn well please.

Words aren't inherently bad. Any word can have a negative connotation to it, there's just a set list that people have determined are "Bad" for arbitrary reasons. Why is Fuck crass? It's one of the most versatile words in the English language covering Nouns, Verbs, adverbs, etc. 

Shit is just another term for poo, but it's "bad" because... reasons...

    • See my previous post. You're also leaving out that T-Mac was likely hitting a rookie wall, like 95% of rookies do late in their first season, combined with the added attention on him by defenses, which in turn would be why Bryce looked Coker's way down the stretch.  With Coker playing like that to start next year, defenses will have to pay attention to it, which will then also make things easier for T-Mac. All of which is also ignoring that T-Mac will just be a better player next year than he was this year, assuming he works on his game this offseason, which we all know he will be.  If a player who was already your clear cut #1 comes back even better his next season, you're going to make sure you're throwing it his way more often, no matter who else you have. Again, Coker's added targets won't be at the expense of T-Mac's, they will BOTH be taking targets from the rest of the team.  Not to mention, we should be passing it more next year to begin with, seeing as we'll have both of them hopefully ready to go full speed Week 1, which again, will help both their target totals increase.
    • Need to crush the hawks tonight. A lose would really damage momentum 
    • Sorry, but this is a terrible breakdown that doesn't at all show what you're trying to say/project about T-Mac next year, as it leaves out key information that changes everything, it makes the opposite point that you're trying to. Chase missed 5 games that second season after playing all 17 as a rookie (and still saw more targets that second season). Puka it looks like you projected his stats out to a 17 game season (as he only played 11 games), but even still , when you have 160+ targets as a rookie, there isn't really much room to get any more the next year. Waddle saw an increase in yards, and sure, his targets went down, but he played on a team with a better WR that year who saw 170 targets for 1,710 yards during that 2nd season for Waddle... something T-Mac doesn't have to contend with on the same team. Then Olave and Wilson both saw an increase of 19 targets in their second season. You basically just laid out the reasoning for why T-Mac should see at least 20 more targets next year, if not more, which would be a solid increase and put him easily into the Top 10 most targeted WR next season.
