One thing I have learned from my years digging into all the information that I can is that it impossible to ever know the motivations of management and such. Sure, the members have every right to state what ever they wish, within preset guidelines, but with that comes the right of others to tell them that they don't know shyte.

Yes, I see your point and I do agree with a lot of what you're saying.

Humans as social animals need to voice their opinions and get feedback to those opinions from their peers - mostly probably to gauge their own perceived self-worth. That's probably why so many of the reporters, bloggers, etc. are so keen on trying to "brake the news" with often times flimsy or even fabricated evidence to back them up. Also, going "against the grain" is another popular strategy whereby one makes opposite claims to the majority view just so that they can say that they were one of the few who saw the truth if the chips happen to fall that way.

Now, I'm not saying that people making ridiculous claims without any real evidence to back them up shouldn't be called out on it. I'm just saying that there's a fine line between doing that and suppressing others' opinions. The right to question the establishment with power is a cornerstone of a democratic society, and to silence anyone trying to do that by saying the said establishment knows better, and therefore is above reproach, is to me socially unacceptable. To me it doesn't really make a difference whether the venue happens to be social media, a public debate on TV or a townhall meeting.

Ok. Rant over. Time to take my soapbox and turn in for the night.


How about that Cameron Jordan fellow..?

I hear he's pretty good...

We all knew this was coming. Loomis always extends contracts for mediocre players.

He had a down year for sure, but he had plenty of help.

He had an injured Bunkley and injured Jenkins inside that made his job more difficult.

Our best LB was a SF reject in Haralson. Solid player but he isn't worrying anyone. He had Lofton at MIKE, kinda slow, and the worst secondary in the NFL behind him.

But even with all that he should have played better than he did. I expect a bounce back season from him, and everyone else on defense that was associated with our humiliating 2014 season.
