How are we going to keep Jimmy in check?

Russell is LESS than a pocket QB. He is totally hobbled. That's why they have looked so bad.

He faded away in big games before when he played for us, but that was against great defenses. If we can keep him under control (somehow) we have a chance but if he's running free he will eat us alive.

Hit him early and hard.

THIS! And Vaccaro is ready and willing. WE all know how Graham backs down when challenged physically. He was always soft for us and he is still soft.

It's funny how you tried to rag on me for saying this about him a couple of years ago, but now it's cool to say it because he's on the other side.

It's only because if you disagree with him he'll call you a "pretend GM," then challenge you to prove him wrong and won't accept any answer you give.

It's like arguing with a 5 year old.

Indeed it is, unfortunately.

I will gladly accept an answer if one is truly given. Simply saying that "I wouldn't have done the same thing" without giving actual reasons why, under the exact same circumstances and with the exact same information available you would not have done the same thing is NOT an answer.

A five-year-old may not understand that, but one would hope an adult could grasp the concept.

Perhaps it is because I am actually open to learning. You were right about him. I have no problem stating that now.

Well you know what? I will give you a little credit for admitting being wrong about him. We're all wrong about things from time to time. But there's one problem I have. If you had only disagreed with me about him back then, I wouldn't have even remembered our conversation. You called me things like idiot, a moron, and you called my opinions "vitriolic". What have you seen since then that is any different from what I, and more than a few others, already knew then?

You are always so sure that not only are you right, but everyone who disagrees with you is an all out stupid moron. I tell you all the time that just because we aren't affiliated with the team, that doesn't mean we don't know what we're looking at.

You wouldn't accept anything I said then, yet you claim in another post here that you will "gladly accept an answer if one is truly given". That's an impossible thing to do, because you won't accept anything until you have decided on your own that it's ok to change your mind.
