But it was never a comparison of Aikman and Bledsoe. It was only to point out that even hall of famers will struggle against elite teams when they don't have an elite team around them. Point proven. No amount of your twisting will change that.

I never asked you if 4-7 equated to 15%. And you know that. So don't call me out on my opinions if you are going to try and twist what I say.

Yet the very years you brought up do not support this. 1996 to 1999 he was 4-6. To even be close to your case study of Bledsoe he would have to be at 2-10.
The years I brought up, support my opinion. Not what you want to twist my opinions to be.

He's played on some pretty pedestrian teams. I think he wins more if he is on an elite team.

Is that what this is all about, because you think I don't like Aikman? I rooted for Aikman his entire career. And will be happy to see him enter the hall of fame. Saying that he lost more against the elite teams when the Cowboys stopped being an elite team was my point. And that is true.

Don't tell me what I am trying to do. I have told you countless times what I was doing. I have no control over how you take it, but I will call you on it when you try and turn it into something else.

How does that not register to you?

From all of your statements, you are totally off base as to what my litmus test was actually meant to be.
