but I see the plan in place. That doesn't mean I'm happy with it, but I get it, and I don't see the point complaining about it.
you have moved into "acceptance" phase

maybe darksiders are stuck in "anger"

im in "bargaining" maybe if Kyler comes back strong, and the defense turns out to be way better than thought.........

This was always coming since we fired Keim. I was accepting it in Jan.

If it hadn't happened we just hired another Keim and that would be even worse.

1. They may not necessarily deep deep down “want” to be 0-17, but they would still revel in it.
2. I bring that up routinely so that the newbies on this board don’t fall into the negativity trap that you sell daily.
3. What is a traditional coach? All I know is that JG is a qualified NFL HC & deserves support until it’s proven he doesn’t.
Again, no one is reveling in a 0-17 season. Get over yourself. That ******** is more negative than any critique of the Cardinals, Gannon or Monti.

You bring up how long you have been a fan of a team who has never won a championship and is one of the worst franchises in the NFL but still sell the positive? It just shows you are a mark. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me almost every year since 1967 and I am the enlightened one. Imagine being proud of being conned by the Bidwills for 50 years.

I guess I shouldn't assume you know what a traditional coach is based upon your other takes. My bad.

They won 4 games last year .. so probably the same this year....and the same this new crew is gonna get.
Did we upgrade at GM and HC or not? If you don't believe this leadership isn't better than what we had last year and therefore could get more out of the same roster, why did we hire them? And Kyler only played 11 games last year so that can't be the excuse.

Allen and Murphy are proper mid guys. Nothing worse than investing good money in mid guys for a rebuilding team.

If Allen and Murphy were still here would you really think much better of the roster? I wouldn't.
I think the roster would be a lot better in 2024 and 2025 with them on the roster. That is how multi year contracts work.

So saying someone is a sucker is now worse than calling out people's fandom?
It is name calling, and completely not allowed.

So I watched the Cardinals Flight Plan and don’t see what JG is getting “roasted” for.

Then I checked the initial article from this post and it quoted a half dozen tweets. Three of which were from Philadelphia writers. One was from a high school kid hoping to be a sports writer. Haters gonna hate I guess.
He was called out for being corny, which he was. No one said it means he is a bad coach. Just a corny one. Similar to the Rondale Moore video from the offseason.

I know the board rules.

Also in rule #1

"Calling out others for not being fans will earn you a short rest."

I am pretty sure saying that board posters would revel in a 0-17 season violates rule #1 much worse than saying someone is a sucker for giving the benefit of doubt to one of the worst NFL franchise in history.

Come on dude.

You are clearly focusing on one part of the rule, and not the spirit of the rule in general.

If you can't make a point without name calling, don't make it. What you said IS a personal attack. Period.

Man you talk out of both sides of your mouth.

Is Murray a giant choker or a guy who can play at an MVP level. Which is it?
Jesus. Tone it done. At the rate we are going, people are going to be banned this weekend for week 1.

I thought calling out people’s fandom was also a big no-no on the site as well. Am I confused there?

And what he said is calling out others for not being fans. But, I apparently have to act as the mod to address that which in turn gets me publicly called out.

I just want to know for future. Telling fans here they love it when the team is terrible because all they want to do is bitch is not an attack, now?

Apparently these comments help make a better message board than being critical of the actual football moves GMs and HCs make.

No, but calling someone a 'mark' is.

Accepting your argument, we have all been conned to a greater or lesser degree, and 'all' includes you, even if you want a pat on the back for noting it.

It absolutely is. Typically this is enforced more when members tell other members to 'Go find another team.' 'Or if you don't like it, then leave.'

Not sure why you choose to double down your personal attack, with snark. It isn't a good look.

Agreed. But I sure as hell don't brag about it. I also wouldn't brag about being married for 50 years if my wife was cheating on me almost every year.

We obviously differ on what is and isn't a good look. I literally quoted what you posted in response to my similar question. If you are reading into that as snark, I don't know what to say.
