Ok, you tell me what I should have comprehended from your statement. You garner a great deal of respect here, but don't expect me to cowher to you because your post count is high, or because you sling insults to avoid explanations...... I'll keep my feelings out of the post, I expect you being the senior poster to do the same.

OK,

I said CB's are typically 6-0 and under. True

Most of the greatest CB's of all time are around 5-10 or 5-11. True

Its a myth that you need tall CB's to compete today. True

Most 5-11 CB's have a freaking vertical nearly 1/2 foot higher than most of these tall WR/TE's playing today. True

Nowhere did I say that 6'0 CB's being better is a myth. I said you don't need tall (over 6'0) CB's to compete, then stated that most of the best CB's of all time ever are under 6'0, to illustrate that you don't have to be a tall CB (over 6'0) to compete.

This is taking way too much effort to relay what should be easy to understand. This is my final attempt at helping you understand. I'm sure the rest of the board is growing tired of this silly back and forth too. I hope you understand.

Word semantics.... I apologize you said to compete, and not better than. I could have easily argued that better is what you meant, but it won't advance us.

This is my attempt at humor, has nothing to do with the convo>>>> I should or could have never thought that better is what you meant based on you making the under 6'0ft corner seem like Superman was guarding the defensive backfield .... I mean you said everything except shorter CB's could leap tall buildings in a single bound. <<<< But, I digress

To your not needing 6'0ft corners to compete comment I gave you kudos by saying that I agreed..... Then I mentioned that even thought your statement is true, the saints have been committed to going opposite of your statement in their free agency signs and visits.... To which there has still been no response....

If the Saints are in fact targeting taller man up corners, shouldn't I want them to follow with what the plan is? That is the whole reason I said a tall man up corner.

This is taking way too much effort to relay what should be easy to understand. This is my final attempt at helping you understand. This is an unnecessary statement.... borderline insulting. I have a very good understanding of the english language as I am sure you do too. If I wanted to trade insults I would be on the page where that was more of the norm. Again answer and move on.....

I'm sure the rest of the board is growing tired of this silly back and forth too. I can't speak for everyone in the room but IMHO fights between family members is what builds the best families.... doubt they would think otherwise!!!!!

OK, One last time I promise.

I said you don't need tall CB's to compete. 6'0 isn't a tall CB. I stated that CB's are typically 6'0 and under. What is it about that statement that you don't understand?

You then pointed out that we looked at two 6'0 CB's. How is looking at 6'0 CB's "going opposite" of my statement that CB's are typically 6'0 and under?

This is now my 3rd reponse to your comments that you claim I haven't responded to.

Hell, maybe its me. Can someone else explain to me where the disconnect is coming from? I am simply unable to make it any more clear than I already have, in several different posts.

First original thought you have had since the beginning of the conversation. Now to you a 6ft cornerback may not be a tall cornerback. But to me a 6'0ft CB is taller than any starting Saints CB that we have had in the past 3 to 4 seasons so you'll forgive me if I see a distinct difference between Jabari Greer and Keenan Lewis, and you don't!!!!

When the cornerbacks in question Asomugha ( 6'2) Cox (6'1) go above what you deem as not tall, or does tall start at 6'3 now for the sake of you winning the argument!!!!

I hate to cut in on you two lovebirds, but AC, you originally posted Cox as being 6'0, which probably lead to Danno's argument that you only listed one CB (Asomugha) who was above 6'0 tall.

Not that it probably makes any difference, but I thought I'd bring that to your attention.
