You forgot the ever-ridiculous “hot boys”


Waiting for something even more idiotic like “Moore’s Manglers”

I have a t-shirt guy working on "Score Moore in 2019" shirts for this upcoming season. A license to print money!

Wait: people thought we were going to make a big signing out of the gate this year?

Most were hoping for ET.

Like you said in another thread, this is the type of acquisition you make if you want to compete for championships.

Yeah, but it was t going to happen day one. That’s just not how we operate. Best chance at him was going to be to let him field offers and for us to decide if we wanted to match it. Which is still in play.

I just thought it may be more practical for this type of format for someone like me who has become quite pessimistic or negative over the years. Or a whiner I guess as your fellow mod alluded.

This way I would know exactly where my type of posts belong and not venture into the Positive Zone and imply personal attacks by my strong opinioned posts

It would keep me separate and keep those who did not agree with my whining opinion from having to read about it...

No?
lol.

One question.

How do you invoke compliance from all your fellow members?

I think most fans should know by now that our owner wants to win a championship, but only within the extremely narrow passageway known as “Jerry’s way”. He will do it his way or not at all.

The proof of the above stares us in the face every year he keeps Garrett as his HC and says he’s serious about winning. He could spend a fortune on the best coaching staff money can buy (you can’t buy players like he could in the mid 90s) but chooses to have “his coach” do it “his way”.

I’m convinced that the way we win a championship in the near future is with the “broken clock” method. It’s right twice a day regardless of setting. Or the “Even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally” theory. In other words, we are depending on luck my friends. On rare occasions luck works. Like the 1980 Olympic hockey “miracle on ice.” We are praying for a “miracle on turf”!

We really just need to upgrade our Safety (Earl) and find a way to sign Tank. The draft should help everything else. There's no reason to go out and sign 4 high priced FA's but 1 really good one in a position of dire need (Ball hawking safety) will greatly improve our outlook for next season IMO.
They’re looking for a SS not a ball hawking safety. That’s Woods.

They need a guy that doesn’t lose the ball on 3rd and 7 in the most critical play of the year. And hopefully he’s solid vs TEs in coverage.

This is the first time in the history of this board where I can say, "Idgit, I hope you're right."...

Other than whining about it ad nauseum with the same few lame lines over and over again.

Hey...let's talk about that boat or the johnny walker blue...those lame lines have never been used.

We lived through the Jerry spend like a drunken sailor years in FA.
Now we live through the Stephen is a $5 bargin bin Walmart shopper.

It is what it is.
No we are living through the Jerry got a boat so he can be a real drunken sailor while Stephen shops at the 99 cent store because daddy spent too much on a boat.

Last year SJ said all that was available were SS types and that's not what they needed. Where did you get that's what they're looking for this year?
