Hey friend! Yes, all is well. Thanks for asking. How about you?

Still posting in here. Done calmed down. Not very argumentative in here anymore. All is well, though. Glad to see you back, and hopefully this team gives us something to root for this Saturday and we don’t go out there and embarrass ourselves lol

One good think Blank has done has been having a decent (inexpensive if desired) food/bev experience at M-B Stadium

$2/$3 hot dogs at the stadium, and if you use a chase card you get a discount as well. Mr Blank got it right with the food pricing at M-B stadium.

I can't hate on Arthur Blank.  He looks like a 1800's oil tycoon but he has done more for the fan experience than Tepper.

I get some Falcons cross pollination from following the Atlanta Braves.  They seem just as miserable as us honestly.

Irrelevant

I'm comparing him to a coach who's greatest accomplishment in the NFL is getting through Sasha Grey's entire catalog while working in Seattle (laudatory).

It's ok. I liked it when Count Chocula went down to dance on the sidelines of the Superbowl when he thought his shitbird team had it in the bag. 

But really, I experienced some personal growth that night. I never thought in my lifetime I could seriously claim to be a New England Patriots fan, but in that short little window of time, ever so brief, let's fuging go, Brady!

You could Almost feel bad for Blank over that SB collapse, if he hadn’t come down to the sidelines to party prematurely. 
 

Watching him come back down from his high as they pissed it away…  despite my glee at watching that team digging their grave, I was embarrassed for him.

He just got a little caught up in the moment. They've had far worse.

Michael Vick. He killed dogs. For sport. For fun. He killed dogs.

Count Choculas last dance is minor compared to all the Vick stuff.

Remember when the owner of the team was helping the injured QB on the sidelines? Yeah, that was cool.

Vick bred and fought dogs. For gambling. Yeah, despicable in my opinion. 
Apparently it is a big cultural thing, like cockfighting in the white culture back in the day. But come on, Michael. 

No better than experimenting on them medically. Lower, in fact because there is no redeeming end goal. If you could accept any end as being redeeming, that is. I don’t.  Cruel as hell. 
 

I haven’t painted Blank as a villain. He is a pretty good owner I guess. Seems to have a good heart.

I kind of want to say, that was before the dog scandal. Blank cut ties over that dog thing, I believe.

Man, as a Panthers fan Vick was one of the all time villains, dogs or no dogs.

My teammate my junior year of high school took me to the dog fights in rural Catawba county, that was some of the most disturbing poo I have ever witnessed

Yeah, I had that in the original post, but I thought I should keep it concise. It's not a good look though, even though it was before the dog stuff surfaced.

We are in danger of running off the rails here.

I think Vick has served his sentence and should be eligible to be gainfully employed by any business or organization that would be acceptable of having a felonious convict for animal cruelty as a representative.

I may be really off on this, but I seem to remember Elway was ran out of the Broncos building and relieved of his duties several seasons ago.

Yeah, he was actually a pretty bad GM. His draft picks were rough.
