Will You Still Be Talking Crap Post-Draft?


top dawg

Recommended Posts

I am just wondering if the pick is Coples, Kuechly, or Blackmon, will you still be downing the pick at this time tomorrow night? Will you still be talking all kinds of poo about the newest Panther, or will you have an epiphany and realize that you really don't know crap about scouting, or, at the very least, your evaluations and pontifications ultimately don't mean a thing (just like last year, and the year before...)? Will you actually wish for the player to be a success, or will you wait like a rabid dog and pounce at the opportunity to say "I told you so!" Will you man up and apologize for all the rude and ill conceived mudslinging at said player and your hubris in regards to thinking that you know more than Hurney, Rivera and company about how to build the Carolina Panthers? Will you?

We go through this every year, but it seems like this year has been more contentious than some (even if that isn't the case). It seems like lessons would have been learned from years past, but Is suppose that is just wishful thinking.

The real question is...does it even matter? We also talk poo about current players, past players, preachers, each other, my neighbor, and the air.

I'll support whoever we draft but if we draft Coples at 9 in any but the most extreme circumstances I won't be thrilled...and I won't keep it to myself just because we drafted him. He has plenty of tools to be good but there will almost definitely be a better option there...

Panthers? Will you?

This is has been like holding hands compared to last year. Have we already forgotten the tension of the great war between the Huggers and the Haters? Some people didn't even survive that war KJDaniels, PFFL, Grits, almost TRD.

Lots of casualties.

Grits stupid ass is still around in the form of p0pc0rner or whatever he calls himself now, while TRD should have been gone anyways.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
