I didn't see the problem with babe. Some posters just hated him and drove him away. Shame if you ask me. Who cares if no one liked his opinion? he was entitled to it. He didn't name call anyone that I saw or break the swear word rule. Someone even admitted baiting him. Everyone here has said stupid things and been a jerk at one time or another.

yeah, but when someone comes here simply to say you're team's not good, repeatedly and that's their own reason to be here, isn't that the definition of a troll?

+1

He's the guy in any debate that takes the other side just for his own amusement. The guy isn't serious. I don't mind having him around if we can make fun of that.

I get and like fans of other teams. Stay game week and go. Or stay and be "real" that's good to have around as well.

The Cardinals are the better team, and they crushed the Packers a few weeks ago. But last year the Seahawks were better than the Packers and the Hawks crushed the Packers in the regular season when one of the O-lineman got hurt. In the playoffs before the Seahawk rematch McCarthy said basically the same thing that the Packers do not view themselves as underdogs and expect to win when they were a 7 point underdog. They still lost but put up a better fight in the rematch. All he is doing is trying to instill confidence in his team, not slighting Arizona. He said the same thing playing against New England the other year.

How many times did we get obliterated in 08'?

Our 08 team had more than just a great QB. This Packer team doesn't have near the talent our 08 team did. Any give day is all I see for them.

I won't argue your point, cheese. I just thought the trigger got pulled a little too quickly. Just because he ruffled the feathers of some 'long time' posters here.... Maybe their feathers needed ruffling. He ruffled mine at first too, but I got over it. I'm not taking issue with the mods decision, just with those who squawked so loudly about him being here. Should we ban everyone that doesn't tow the company line?

I agree with Dude that members who are civil, be they Cards fans or not should be allowed their say. Mods have the final decision and I have to let them do as they see fit for the good of the board.

Anyway, I've had my say on the subject and I'll let it go.

Thanks

I love the fact that the cardinals are saying nothing. The Packers seem like a team that is trying to talk themselves into some confidence.

In the first game the packers got smoked by a loose team that was starting to buy into their own hype. This time they get us after an embarrassing loss, rested and hungry. And the cardinals are saying nothing, they are clearly focused.

I smell another ass whoppin coming. My nuggets are starting to cluck. It won't be like the last game, the pack won't play THAT bad, but we will win. Convincingly

It's not arrogance, the cardinals are the better team. We ain't Washington.

Babe is the new infection of our age which the internet caters to, the passive aggressive type and every post he made was negative with an intent to irritate Cardinal fans and I am glad he is gone so the Cardinal fans on this forum can have fun appreciating our team... something we have earned through the years :)

Yes, 100% definition of a troll playing the innocent roll. Sorry, no tears will be shed for Bababagaduce
