Jump on the Brees' fault bandwagon

TheOak · 11-27-2012, 12:50 PM

Obviously the most expensive part on my car, the 558 hp Super Charged motor is why I cant drive my car on a flat tire, its also the reason the wipers dont clear all of the water from my wind shield....

I really love to blame it for my DVD player not being able to play scratched DVDs.

So well stated. And I'll add.

I would love to have Aaron Rodgers ( better than average qb, dubbed better than Drew) who doesn't make that one mistake per game, and has a healthy O line, and be at home and go up against this Defense...... O, wait..... they did it to Green Bay to in Lambeau too!!!!!

Well, I do agree with Oak's comparison in its essence.

But I would counter that while it's certainly not the expensive motor's fault if your wipers are not working - I bet you're still a lot more critical of how the expensive motor performs at its duty and much more disappointed when it doesn't perform up to its expectations compared to how critical/disappointed you are at the inexpensive wipers when they don't meet your expectations?!

Also, the Vikes won against the 49ers, and while it was at home it proves that you can't really draw direct comparisons between previous match ups and their results because as has been stated here numerous times before: every team matches differently against each other.

I was comparing Green Bay more so for the makeup of their team. It compares similarly to ours. As a matter of fact, in this instance( to make a horrible analogy that I know I already hate myself for thinking) we would be considered the poor mans Green Bay. And you can compare matchups if we are talking about the Same team ( Frisco) vs teams with a similar skillset that being N.O and G.B

Correct.

As far as the motor on my CTS-V or my SS before that, or any of my TA's.. There are elements that effect the motors efficiency and performance. I know these things and expect them. That motor will not put out 558 every day, 24 hours a day, regardless of conditions. I also know there are some gives and takes with that motor, as with any motor /QB.

Cold dry weather will take HP over 558 as it is dense and contains more O2.
A hot humid day will reduce performance.
While MPG is the last thing you think of when you own that car you should still be aware that mileage is worse in the winter. More cold dense air = MAF signals computer to use more fuel.

Also, while on a perfect track and day it will hot 60 in 3.6s, bad tires, breaking traction all effect over all performance.

Some peoples expectations are outright absurd. Drew is expected to lead men with perfection.

The facts are the facts
Patton lost fkn soldiers.
Six Sigma still has a potential error rate of 3.4 defects per million.
The best neurosurgeon has lost a patient on the table.
Drew Brees has thrown interceptions. He will throw another one.... and another one; acknowledging it is one thing, dwelling and hating on the man because of it is a bit fkn elitist. Being invidious in every single conversation because he makes more $ than anyone on these forums is pure envy. Don't begrudge a man for what he makes, if someone is to be lambasted it should be the guy that pays him.

Drew Brees is our best hope for another Super Bowl.... another win this season.
