Weis very well may still have sucked as a head coach, but they both knew his hiring practices were faulty. It is still a truism. Correct? It makes perfect sense, does it not?

Or are you saying it's better to hire coaches who are friends with no experience (what he said he did at Notre Dame)? Are you saying it is better to hire experienced coaches that you have no prior working relationships or understanding of common ways of thinking (what he said he did later at Kansas)?

Or are you simply arguing the point just for the sake of arguing?

That's your "SPECIALty"

I’m not taking sides on the overall issue between saintfan and others against guido. I’m commenting on the remarks in this thread. This thread was going fine with a back and forth of thoughts, ideas, and opinions on the topic. Then you had to do exactly what y’all have vilified guido of doing and that’s try to start an argument. Again, not taking sides because there are points to be made from both as well as negatives to be had on both. But this senseless attempt to start something every time guido says something isn’t working in case y’all haven’t noticed. Unless I missed it he hasn’t taken the bait yet.

What goes around comes around!

Thank you, jlouhill. I was hoping I wasn't the only one noticing. I had put Boston on "ignore" some time back because I was sick of getting into arguments with him over stupid stuff. I took him off my ignore list because, unlike saintfan, he actually posts Saints worthy discussion. But, it's started again.

It stops when you own it little speedo. Not a scintillia of a second before. Love this board as much as you project? Want peace? Own it.

Maybe create an apology thread wherein you acknowledge your personal attacks and race baiting (might want to change your extremely offensive name) and assure the community you understand your role and pledge to police yourself.

You haven't attacked anyone since this started. I know why - because I became your target and you are now using me as your source for ego feeding. See how it works?

How 'bout it little man? Swallow that pride speedo. You can do it...or can you?

It is working. He hasn't attacked anybody since I went nuclear on him. He's attacked me plenty, and he's trying to divide the board to be sure, but it's working - it just takes time. When enough people realize they can hold him to account we will have made real progress - the community he preys on will be his ultimate demise...and be careful what you say because he'll report you too. He's the only person here who does - everybody else just moves on with their lives.

Speedo is getting what he gives. Little speedo has derailed more threads here over the years than I can keep up with without keeping a list, which I started about 2 years ago. His actions can't be ignored anymore and he has to own it. The community deserves a place to have opinions without being challenged by our resident race baiter. As a part time paid writer on the interwebs, I am personally pissed at his knack for plagiarism, but it's not just personal. It's also against the law.

Apologies for the drama. It can't stop until the problem is solved, and as we can see by Speedo's response, he still hasn't owned it. NPD is a tough nut to crack.

Like I said, I’m not taking one side over the other here. I can’t speak to what has happened in the past as I haven’t been on the receiving end of any of what you are claiming against guido. I rarely post on here but I do frequent the site almost daily because I get very informative information about our Saints on here. I will occasionally chime in but usually just read as I have never played organized football so I’m a bit ignorant about some of the inner workings of the game such as placement of certain players in certain positions and so on. I grew up playing baseball so I’m more in tune with the ins and outs of that sport.
I like what most everyone brings to this forum Saints related. As I stated I have never had any negativity from guido. As with others I don’t always agree with his analysis or how he may respond to others. I usually just bypass things that seem to get personal or off topic. I have seen where he has said he has apologized privately to some and he has toned it down recently. As you have admitted he hasn’t attacked anyone since this war started. He has also stated that he is trying to do better.
May I make a suggestion merely as a third party on the sidelines of all this. Maybe call a ceasefire and see how things pan out. If someone breaks the ceasefire then have at it. I will just have to navigate the mine field of vitriol and focus on Saints news. I think a lot of us on here would like to see some sort of peace agreement. I’m certainly not telling you or anyone else on here what to do. It’s just a friendly suggestion.

I made ONE comment on this thread and it was in regard to a comment Major made and my interpretation of it and how I thought guido missed his point. In what way was my comment an attack or argumentative?

So, me commenting that you may have missed Major’s point is an attack now? In other words YOU are allowed to reply and disagree with Major’s point, but if I comment on his point I’m just being argumentative? Feel free to put me back on ignore.

Look, I’m not trying to stoke the flames here. I interpreted the posts by major and guido totally different than your take. I interpreted your response as being argumentative. If that wasn’t your intent then I apologize. After re-reading the post I can see your point on what major was saying. I simply didn’t see it that way. I thought your questions were argumentative because I didn’t view it as being about Weis or how good or bad he was. I simply saw it as Weis saying that he did things a certain way and that he sees now that was possibly why he struggled as a head coach. He can take that experience and share it with young coaches so they might not adopt the same philosophy. That’s how I read it. I can see the point of who is he to give head coaching advice given his record but if he knows now one of the areas he failed as a HC then I don’t see the problem with him sharing that with others. That’s just my take on it.
