And yet all your posts are just ways of intimidating and bullying people when they don't share your views.

Who cares if we say what's wrong with the team, that's sports and this is a discussion forum. I'm looking forward to the season as much as anyone, but talking about previous failures is part of sports and it's not always sunshine and rainbows.

If you get so wound up about it, then let the posters that are mature enough speak between ourselves and don't comment if you can't do so without causing an argument.

We obviously don't know you, but you take great delight into trying to intimidate other members because they think differently to you.

A fair weather fan is someone that only shows up when the team is winning, which can't be said for anyone of us as we would not be here right now.

As I said, if you don't like what we are discussing then move along and we will continue to discuss between ourselves, we don't need your input.

When didn't I "show up" as you put it? If you looked down at the members visiting the forum listing you would see that I have been here every day (except for a brief period when I was recovering from surgery) for years. The fact that I told myself I wasn't going to respond to the negative garbage a few of you were inundating the forum with for a couple of weeks a couple of years ago doesn't mean I wasn't here.

What is your problem?

Firstly, I never said you don't "show up," I gave my description of a fair weather fan and said that doesn't apply to us. Please re-read my post.

Secondly, I don't have a problem, I just agree with Spkb and The Dude, I made that clear that I have no problem reflecting on past failures and then you quoted all 3 of us into your response and started on your tirade.

I've got better things to do than go round in circles with you so I'm done arguing, just wanted to state my opinion.

Sice we are posting such "negative venom" right now why aren't you gone? It's crap, you left because you are a fair weather fan and can't handle reality.

Ya know and that is just it. Since when did being honest about the team equate to negativity? If the team has been 7-9 4 of the last 5 years that is a fact. It isn't negative or positive, it just is.

I have seen Dizzle and you point out areas of concern and areas of excitement. That's being honest. The loss of Unger is concerning. He is a really good center. The loss of Armistead is concerning he is a very good left tackle. Couple that with the fact that he just signed a huge contract and hasn't been healthy since is even more worrisome. The situation with Fairley is a concern because he was really good for us last year.

Positive areas are that Unger's fill in has been doing well. Kamara sounds like he could be a real stud. This Undrafted Rookie Maulet. Breaux sounds finally healthy and playing well. Lattimore sounds like the real deal. PJ if he can stay healthy is good. We could have a rally good backend.

Pros and cons. That's what it is as a fan. Not everything is good and not everything is bad.

Not surprising really, you were one of the people to disappear during the losing last season.
