Captain Hindsight

The former GM also knew he needed more than one good player

Hadn't considered that but i doubt other leagues need to do such a ban. He simply wouldn't be approved as an owner

Totally agree that guy is a dick. Just something I was thinking about this morning

i don't disagree at all with this guy being a dick. He is and that is very apparent. He should be in hot water But then I look at events like the whole #cancelcolbert nonsense. The pitchforks were out even before he had a chance to respond. Phil Robertson from Duck Dynasty comes to mind too. Again I personally don't also disagree with everyone's reaction to certain issues (Donald Sterling included), my hope is that America doesn't become a single minded nation were only the majority line of thinking or the loudest voice is "right". Disagreement is natural and in some cases should be encouraged. (Not in this case of course) I'm really commenting on society as a whole, not just this situation.

What is most sad to me about a story like this is that an ignorant man has to be tarred and feathered instead of educated. When I step back from this and try to think about the situation a few different ways. One viewpoint is that "Watch what you say and if we don't agree with you, a million people are going to show you how much we hate you." How is that any different than what this man has done? Hate breeds hate I guess My guess is that the Commish will come out, condemn him, suspend and him and fine him a huge sum of money that will be donated to a local charity. Then eventually after many months of shaming, the team will be sold to Magic Johnson in some sort of poetic justice. But what really came of all this in the end? One voice grew louder and drove the bigot out? What does that really say about how far the country has come on issues like racism? Or just unpopular opinions? I guess what the point I'm trying to make is that instead of shoving a pitchfork up somebody's ass when they say something unpopular, we take time to educate rather than simply destroy him/her. For me this goes beyond the many social issues facing our country today (gay marriage, pot, racism, sexism, ect.) and to just unpopular opinions in general. I really hope this country doesn't become a place where if you say the Earth is round, you go to jail. That said, its clear this guy is a bigot. I'm sure society/ the NBA will handle him appropriately and I won't shed a tear for him.

The difference between Mike Williams and Stevie is the number of times they have been stabbed by family members

Hopefully it doesn't spread beyond that.

That doesn't sound good

We have absolutely zero reason to need to get cap savings. None

Internet tough guys

We round up a posse

The original post. Not sure if it was the Ops or AW

Any game Trent Edwards started for starters. If Fred Jackson was out we wouldnt continue to do what we were best at. I always thought under Gailey the team played scared at times, especially on defense. With Marrone at the helm I've never gotten that impression. Sorry i guess I wasn't clear in my other post

And we just kept passing on Clausen! TWICE! He would have helped us bottom out!

Horrible Idea

One thing I loved from last season was no matter what players were on the field the team was aggressive. For years we saw timid play when a starter was out and that used to make me so angry.

Who though? Certainly not Pryor.

He's practicing at Chuckie Cheese I read

Fair enough, typically those guys don't make it to FA

A guy can't have a nice apartment?

I guess. My point was everyone seems to think you can just sign the best QB in FA Vick was proabley that guy this year and he went to where he'd have a decent chance to start over a guy that was far more down than our guy ever was

Not me. I'd buy every ticket I could get my hands on and I'd sure as hell be there every game I could

You have to look at both sides of it. What player that has a chance to start is going to go to a place where the management is giving the young guy a huge boost?

Who said I got engaged? No engagement or anything just grad school and other priorities I'm still here just lurking more than posting lately

I think you missed when they signed Kolb and he subsequently got hurt. At that point the best available options were Matt leinart, Thad or John beck. Bills made the right call
