Article: Amazing Disgrace (Quincy Carter)

[joseephuss]

Yikes, 10 pages

3 quick points.

1. Dallas should not have been able to cut him as a drug addict--its clearly against NFL bylaws. Not sure its a good rule but we were stuck with other drugged out losers and should have been stuck with this one season.

2. This guy is so out of chances that anyone believing anything he says is absurd.

3. I'd bet dollars to donuts this guy is using more than pot.

Him and Clint Steorner are still battling it out

Didn't Hutch quit altogether and go into coaching?

Any wonder I loved BP/Ireland running drafts lol.

Quincy is not doing anything other than pot. Even the pot is not to blame for the position he is in right now. It is what is between his ears. He just did not have/does not have the mental fortitude that is needed to play NFL football at a high level on the Dallas Cowboys.

That is heavy pressure. Take it down a notch and you can say that he still does not have the mental fortitude to play QB in the NFL period.

I have seen all the knocks on Quincy and most really don't matter as much as his lack of mental toughness. Same for most QBs. Mechanics can be corrected. Arm strength is often over rated. Defenses can learn to be read. What likely can't be changed or improved upon is mental fortitude and toughness. A player either has that or doesn't. Every other thing about a player can be related to it as well. It takes mental toughness to work on learing schemes, study tape, hit the weight room. It takes mental toughness to admit to your mistakes, learn from them and work to correct them. Quincy did not have that while in the NFL and based on these few comments by him, he still doesn't.

I go overboard in my defense of Terrell. Happy?

Nope, but then again, my feelings (or Owens' for that matter) do not factor into the equation one iota. You are just one of the few who take exception to non-positive Owens commentary. However, you take it upon yourself to further distinguish yourself from Owens supporters.

Case in point: your sigs. bbgun does not make a secret of his perspective of Owens. Most posters hash it out with him verbally in some form or fashion.

Not you, though.

Nope. You take his avatar and copy-and-paste it with Owens pics.

Now, don't get me wrong. It's hilarious, at first. Then hours pass. Days pass. Weeks pass. Sure, you'll shuffle them at bit, but the original theme remains the same. The extremely witty, "HAHA!" slowly, but surely dissolves into a third grade elementary school, "na na na NA nah!".

But that's all null and void, right? After all, he hurt your man.

If I didn't defend him you all would have no one to beat up since Terrell doesn't spend any time on this board.

:violin:

Newsflash, Owens acolyte. In the words of the immortal Clark Gable, "Frankly my dear, he doesn't GIVE a damn".

Good grief.

I'm giving you a conduit. You should be thanking me for being your whipping boy.

Why? Why do you even WANT to be a whipping boy? What purpose does it solve? Do you believe that Owens will be somehow 'PLEASED' with you? Will that somehow make you his 'number one fan'? Do you think that he will rain PRAISES down upon you? He couldn't care a rat's arse about your melodrama which you bestow upon his behalf. A better question is, "Why do YOU care so much"???

Hey... about that QC...

Dead horse.

Long forgotten.

Keeps resurfacing like a dead body without cement shoes in saltwater.

How's that?

I love it when people can't read. At least 5 pages of the thread were hijacked to TO. All hail he who fails.

When all you've got is agenda, you can be bothered to glance at the thread to determine that it was jacked by Bleu and his Owens obsession.

You gotta get right to the Carter views.

Cool.

To be honest, I never saw the picture as I haven't had time to post much and the first I heard of it was when Hostile mentioned it. If you made the picture just to be funny and not to introduce race, then personally, I dont think you should apologize, I know I wouldn't. I would have just took it down if people were offended, and went on about my business.

I just went on the assumption that it was to introduce race, if it wasn't then you have my apology for jumping to conclusions.

I see you've "hijacked" my quote:

Well, it's official. 2000 plus views ooops I mean 1000 views, atleast half were TO related (5 pages)

God forbid Carter leds the Battlewings to the play-offs, we'll have to hear how the defense carried the team...........gone are the days when an offense is given credit for scoring more points.

Actually Clint is in the AFL. Clint is a way better guy than Quincy he just didn't have much talent. I've sent e-mails to Clint and he replies so its really pretty cool. But anyway, just saying Clint in AFL not AF2

Exactly.........Whatever happened to the hammer

1. Dallas should not have been able to cut him as a drug addict--its clearly against NFL bylaws. Not sure its a good rule but we were stuck with other drugged out losers and should have been stuck with this one season.

They didn't cut him for that reason. They cut him based on performance and attitude. This has been ratified by an arbitrator who ruled in favor of the Cowboys. Look how fast the NFL comes down on the Cowboys for anything. Do you honestly believe they'd suddenly join the Cowboys in a conspiracy to dump on this player? Come on, that doesn't make a lick of sense.

2. This guy is so out of chances that anyone believing anything he says is absurd.

I do believe he blames the Cowboys for the situation he is in. No blame to the Jets or Alouettes. He doesn't mention them.

3. I'd bet dollars to donuts this guy is using more than pot.

I honestly hope not, but have my suspicions despite his denials.

Him and Clint Steorner are still battling it out

I wonder how come I never got bashed for saying Stoerner didn't belong in the NFL?

Didn't Hutch quit altogether and go into coaching?

No sir, thinking of going into politics. Ryan Leaf has gone into coaching.

it was definitely not to introduce race. I just went to constructing without thinking of the ramifications. I was asked to remove it and immediately did so.

But But But...He and Jerry shared the same Zodiac Sign.

I remember wanting to smack Jerry when he mentioned that He and QC shared a birthdate or were close to sharing a birthday as another BONUS to him drafting him. :

On HB-Freakin-O to boot!!! The world saw an Idiot that day, my friends.........
