So your telling me there's a chance!

That apparently you’re solely equipped to define or set. Silliness.

hes the same guy who said the Rams won’t score 10 points next week but when I called him to put his signature where his mouth is, he disappeared.

he’s all bluster, no muster.

Not at all. I never said I was omniscient. Zero content hate and drivel isn’t productive.

 

[Krusher kardinals]

That’s not entirely true. When the game is meaningless for playoffs and you have a shot at the #1 pick you want losses. It’s called looking at the big picture.

but what Why is arguing in favor is sheer silliness. If they’re not raring to go after this past weekend I don’t see what another loss would do in terms of motivation. And frankly, pros shouldn’t need BS excuses for motivation. They are paid professionals - literally paid to be as competitive as possible.

The draft is an in exact science
So i never want to see the cards lose..
You can look at the top picks ...
95% are a visceral crap shoot
A educated guess..
Tom brady -6th round pick 199
Drew brees -2nd round pick 32
Aaron Rodgers-1st round pick 24
Russell Wilson - 3 rd round pick 75
Brett favre -2nd round pick 33
Kurt warner un drafted

then look at
Ryan leaf -1 rd -pick 2
Jamarcus Russell 1 rd pick 1
Heath shuler rd 1 pick 3
Rick mirer -rd 1 pick 2
Akili smith rd 1 pick 3
I can keep going

I’ve proposed several bets and nobody has responded. What I said was that the Rams’ offense won’t score more than 10 points in the wake of the news that Goff won’t play. I believe that will happen (maybe 60% of the time) and please feel free to berate me in the event it does not happen. I like to have a higher confidence interval when I bet (especially against anonymous internet folks that seem mad at me).

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

Once again, I’d just like to thank the moderators for encouraging and emboldening a full on flame war on fellow Cardinals fans.

You should follow their cue. If you want to post zero content emotional garbage go on Twitter.

okay... so again, if Goff doesn’t play, I take the over on 10, you take the under.

Winner gets to decide the loser’s signature.

in or out?

And they are usually bad.

Bryant johnson/calvin pace
Wendell bryant
Andre wadworth
Tom knight
On and on

Meh it’s called venting. It’s not a big deal and for many it’s a healthy outlet. Very few posters are all vent zero discussion.

While what you say, cherry picking, is true. It’s also very much true that on a round-by-round basis more talent comes from the first and from the higher picks in the first than elsewhere. There’s also value in having greater choice. Of course the success comes down to the talent of the selector, but more choice means more opportunity.

Still is. This behavior won't be tolerated.

Read the rules, love them and abide or post somewhere else.

I have to laugh. You have the fiduciary concept completely upside down. Fans have no fiduciary responsibility as regards a professional sports franchise. They are a paying customer. In fact from a fiduciary perspective in sports it’s just the opposite of what you propose. The team is a representative of the locale and oftentimes is the recipient of public funding for stadiums, practice facilities, access roads, etc. that places the team in a fiduciary position to its locale.

And while you’re right that fans aren’t invariably right (where did anyone ever say that?), they do have a right to their variety of opinion, perspective, etc. And they have a right to voice those, no matter how off or accurate they might be. And that certainly does not impact their level of being a fan (which is defined as a person having a strong interest in or admiration or a person or thing - which is inherently an internal and personal thing verses an external determination by someone else).

as for “trustee” and “custodian” I don’t think you know what those words mean from the context of your post.

You are also deluded if you think it’s the fans’ duty to come up with solutions. Fans are not paid sports professionals. They typically don’t possess the experience, knowledge or have access to the information or data to actually come up with solutions. And all that ignores the fact that they actually possess zero control and usually zero attention from the team. In other words, requiring fans to bring solutions is a fools game. Do solutions engender better conversation on a fan board? Sure. Does it make you a better fan? Not by any measure.

I want to congratulate you for your arrogance. We haven’t seen your level here in a long time.

Ouchie, why are you wasting diatribes on a clear troll? You’re smarter & better than this, lol.

Those rules apply to ad hominem. If someone makes a zero content post that I disagree with, I am permitted to “attack” the merits of the post.

Mods,
This is a textbook example of a personal attack. Please ban.

Thx.

thats understood. FGs do not fall under that category.

One line that is simple to remember: Attack the post, not the poster.

Oh boy. You clearly didn't read the rules that I posted.

Baselessly insulting a poster without addressing the argument seems to fall in line with the rules you posted. Where am I wrong?

thank you for stating this

now please ban dvontel according to those rules

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

And yes the hostility from him and a few others has been “repeated”

YOU don't choose moderator decisions, WE do. Next time that tell us to make the decision, you will be on the wrong side of a ban.

Why don't you take today off and cool down.

Thanks.

 

[Cheesebeef]

You know what’s always been interesting to me? In all the years I’ve been here, darksiders/realists have been attacked as bad fans, every year, no matter if the team is good (rare) or often (much moreso)

You know what they never or very very rarely do? Call the positive people bad fans.

sure, we/they will disagree vociferously with the glass is half full or overflowing fans about football, but their fandom itself is never questioned like you see so often in the reverse.

 

[Stout]

Dude, you come on here and call everyone around you everything but a nice guy that doesn't agree with your posts. You DICTATE what it is and should be to be a fan and to be able to post, and you question posters' fandom. Why do YOU get to set the standards, personally insult people continuously, and then cry foul?

See, notice I'm commenting on your posting, not you. We clearly disagree in our opinions. No worries there. The problem is, you see your opinions as fact and blatantly insult posters who disagree. I'll get into it hammer and tongs with other posters, but it's an argument, not a personal insult fest. And when I've stepped over the line? I've been banned, bowed my head, and accepted it. You are getting INSANE amounts of leeway and would have been banned long since before. Just accept the mods' hints and stop insulting people.
