Ooohhh, a challenge, or a post closely resembling one, me likey. Let's see:
Quote:
Ok Saintwhodi...since you can call them so well, tell me you thought Colby Bockwoldt would be a starter at this time last year.
|
Bad, bad example. Colby wouldn't start for 31 other teams in the league. AND he was a 7th rounder. Noone would call a 7th rounder a reach, which was your point right? Or do you wanna change it?
Quote:
I also want you to go on the record saying that you won't swing on Sullivan's jock strap if this new group of coaches turn him into a beast.
|
Is this meant to be taking literally? Cause I am 6'2" 240 and I probably could swing from lard butt's jock strap. I have no worries of him ever turning into a beast. A player who was forced to sit ON OUR DEFENSE cause he was too fat and lazy will never be anything. 11.5 remember?
Quote:
Finally, if Harper does prove you wrong, will you go on record saying you were wrong?
|
Do you want the other thousands of people who think he is a reach to say they were wrong too? Are you gonna write a letter to all the national sports writers who called him a reach, and some a bad pick? If he plays well, i'll give him his due. Right now, he is a HUGE reach.
Quote:
All I'm saying is give the guys who are getting paid to make the choices the benefit of the doubt until they are proven wrong by performance on the field.
|
Ia m sure the guys who picked Ryan Leaf, Akili Smith and Tony Mandarich were getting paid to make those decisions too. That's no point at all. That's like saying if Ray Nagin wanted to tear down the Mississippi River Bridge, people should turn the other way cause Nagin and his staff get paid to make those decisions. Um, no thanks. I've never been a sheep.
Quote:
Brady should have been the first QB picked the year he came out...31 teams missed out on that one...I bet the Pats were blasted for picking him over someone who could have been picked in the previous round or something.
|
Brady was a 6th round pick. You seem to be confusing your point. Harper was called a reach cause he was picked much HIGHE Rthan he was supposed to. Brady was picked LATE, and therefore could be called a steal, which would be an understatement. Hopefully this clears up the difference between a reach and a steal.
Quote:
it's way too early to tell on any of these guys, including Sullivan...we'll see in a few months
|
Sullivan has sucked here for 3 years. If you can't tell by now, you never will unfortunately.
