I think often times some of us take a stand and we aren\'t willing to back off and admit we were wrong. I\'ve been guilty of it at times. I think this becomes counter-productive and we get locked into a debate that makes no progress because no one is willing to look at the other side of the arguement. That\'s no fun for anyone.

One of the reasons I like debating with you is there is some give and take there. The other reason is you back your opinions up well. Do I think you stretch it at TIMES? Yes, but we all do.

You and some others pointed out before the start of last season that there were some problems OTHER than talent and ya\'ll didn\'t see us as a playoff team. Very good insight. I was still a big Haslett fan last year. I suppose I overlooked some things I shouldn\'t have. Not to say Haslett was totally at fault because he wasn\'t. Injuries did play a part but it went WAY beyond injuries.

I did give you your props for your prediction on the Saints. I admitted I was wrong. No use pretending it didn\'t happen. Being wrong isn\'t the end of the world.

I could go pull up all of your negative posts on Brooks. The ones where you said you would trade him and get a QB who could manage the game. And I could put those posts side by side with your recent predictions that Aaron could be a pro-bowl QB this year.

But I feel no need to do that. You\'ve backed off of your stance on Brooks to some degree and that\'s fair. That\'s what makes debating with someone a plesant experience.

I don\'t mind when someone goes back and points out that I was wrong. It doesn\'t hurt my feelings or make me think I don\'t know football. I just think it\'s been beat in the ground a little too much.

We\'ve got many NEW things to talk about and we\'ve got a lot of new members here who probably don\'t care too much about reading that stuff.

I think this board is a better place without all of that. It\'s fun at times ,as long as it\'s kept on a friendly level, I think it\'s ok. But we know how quickly those things can get out of control.

So what you\'re saying here is that you were wrong and I was right?

LMAO. You\'re so fun to pick on Billy. :P
