Every preseason, we hear about "so and so" a sixth round draft pick out of What's A Matter U College and how high the coaching staff is on him. We hear about guys who have finally "gotten it" and have improved tremendously in the off season. We hear about a guy who catches EVERYTHING thrown in his direction like a human Venus Fly Trap....

And then the season begins and they all suck.

So, I am looking to put together a support group which maybe we can call "Hype Busters" to remind eachother of all the times we have bought the hype in the past about a super talented player....only to see the same guy turn back into a frog the second the season begins.

Do the name Billy Davis mean anything to ya?



:D

That's what I really like about BP. You don't get near as much of that crap about players as we used to.

It is a refreshing change from prior years. It is rare for him to single out a guy and give him praise. I was shocked when he said great things about D Stewart. I remember last year you could tell he was high on W Blade but was so reserved in what he said about him.

No no no...this kind of talk will never do for the group.

There is NO honest coach.

Bradie James. That's the next one.

Burce Thornton.

Pat Crayton.

Randall Williams seems to be a front runner the last couple of seasons.

Yep...and the media plays a role in it too. They're the worst because they have NOTHING to write about....and it's only gonna get worse because we know how much information Parcells leaks to the media...ZILCH.

Izel Reese was playing one HELL of a CB in camp a few preseasons ago.

I'll be a charter member.


Hi. My name is coach. I'm a recovering hype-addict of the Dallas Cowboys. I'm struggling with the excitement of an upcoming new season and the temptation of over-hyping from constant bombardment from the media.

:D
