Hamlin seems ready for tomorrow (Sarcasm)

[bayeslife]

What's the problem? He's doing what's asked of him.

:bang2:

Yeah I'm sure he's thinking "man if I had shown up to that one OTA practice I would have been able to make that play, gosh dangit..."

 

[iceberg]

Here's the funniest thing ever.

These two clowns are babbling on about me being so concerned about what the Cowboys players are doing...

Yet they aren't smart enough to see that they are doing the same thing with me.

And I'm just a fan with a blog, lol.

At least I spend some time on people who are famous and play for the Dallas Cowboys.

As tired of me as they talk about being they can't seem to put me on ignore which I have requested from them for like three years now.

And now Asthma wants to know my profession? My phone number? My home address? Who I date? My social security number?

:laugh1: :laugh1: :laugh1:

except i don't go from website to website looking for your stupidity - you bring it here daily.

why can't you ignore hamlin?

and stalking them online isn't spending time with them, dude.

i don't go to your site or any other site you blither on about. so your "analogy" of me doing the same thing is about as stupid as the post itself.

if you don't get help at charter, please. get help somewhere.

 

[iceberg]

It blows my mind how these same people don’t even realize they are doing the same exact thing they are accusing others of.

so - since we all share this forum, how is my saying STOP WHINING the same as stalking the players post by post looking for something to make fun of? i don't hang out anywhere but here as far as where we both hang out and i can promise you, it's not because of him i stick around.

just because you stand in the street and go LOOK - THIS GUY IS AN IDIOT all day long using any source you can find doesn't make someone going "shut up" the same thing.

you guys love to reach-n-whine.

 

[iceberg]

Man, when people turn against players, they just reach for anything to support their hatred.

Some of this stuff is almost as bad as all the complaints about Romo and his pursuit of golf, Jessica Simpson, etc.

As long as the guys get their work done and the team has no problem with the effort they are putting forth, we should not be worried about them having a life.

I'm not a party person and would prefer that our players stay away from that scene, but it's their choice not mine. As long as it doesn't affect my team, they don't pull a Roethlisberger or something, etc., then it just isn't my business how they spend their off time.

when dc stops his drama parade and just talks sports and news, he does great stuff. but when he goes into attack mode, we may as well expect more common sense from the jerry springer show. boy just bulldogs in and like people are starting to notice, they watch every minute of those they hate LOOKING for a reason to call them out.

however sad and pathetic my life has been, become or ever will be - it will never be that sad.

:bang2:

All plays in that video show exactly why people dislike Hamlin - he's constantly late on plays and misses important tackles.

1. First play - You can't expect Bradie James to cover a tight end down the seam so Hamlin has to help him out but he's late getting over there. He was just standing in the middle of the field forever even with Delhomme staring that TE down!!!

2. Second play - Hamlin bites on the fake and the same TE runs down the seam wide open against our cover 3 zone. You can see that Mike Jenkins sees the open guy and lets his responsibility go to cover the wide open TE but it is too late. (that Mike Jenkins is a smart one folks)

3. Last play - Hamlin misses a tackle and it's an easy score. Flag was thrown and IIRC is was a holding call against the Panthers so it was negated. Lucky for Hamlin.


We need someone faster back there that has better instincts - period.

Agenda...who has one?

And in case anyone was wondering, Miles Austin was in LA too.



I wouldn't be too worried either. Guys and Dolls Lounge is a pretty classy spot. I've been there. At least he's not out in Milledgeville, GA scheming on 20-year-olds while his buddy blocks the door and the club tapes over the footage.

Weak sauce.

Miles was at the workouts today.

So a guy who is on the brink of losing his job because his on the job production has been down recently skips the first opportunity to be back with his teammates working out on a VOLUNTARY basis...

To chill in LA and party.

Roethlisberger doesn’t show for offseason work

7 hours, 32 minutes ago

PITTSBURGH (AP)—Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger,
accused of assaulting a female college student in Georgia, did not report to the team’s offseason workouts.

Team spokesman Dave Lockett said Roethlisberger will not work out with his teammates this week. Some, but not all, of the Steelers’ most experienced players began the conditioning and weightlifting program on Monday.

Less-experienced players began working out two weeks ago.

The Steelers do not start on-field practicing until April 19, when most players are expected to be on hand.

The team apparently believes it would be a distraction for Roethlisberger to be working out at this time. An investigation into the Georgia case is ongoing.

LINK.

Could be worse.

So one guy worked out today and is going to Six Flags tomorrow, and the other guy partied in LA today and is going to work out tomorrow?

I can see the problem ... and it's you.

Actually it's Hamlin's poor performance on the field.

no. i'm looking for you to stop your personal hate parade.

if you like a player they get a pass from your crap. if you don't, you cyber-stalk them in various places looking for bullets.

you and "writing" are about as far apart as me being a chip-n-dales dancer.

scratch that. i still got a shot.

 

[iceberg]

Actually it's Hamlin's poor performance on the field.

then why not keep it to the poor performance on the field vs. all the personal digs you like to take? you gossip more than a complete herd of women but the problem is you do with the bullheaded mentality of a guy with something to prove.

can you believe hamlin said he's in LA????
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how come he's still in LA????
I don't know but i read jones said he needs to get busy so he'd better put his nose to the grindstone vs. playing around on the internet!!!
oh my gosh - if that were my job i'd at least try!!!
I KNOW!!!! so glad you see it my way!!!!

oprah would love you man.

But you give Miles Austin a pass despite him openly saying he's going to Six Flags tomorrow?

Come on, dude. I like your show and I love calling in, but be consistent.

The workouts are totally voluntary, and there's four months worth of workouts. Lifting weights isn't going to help his on-field awareness - so we'll need to pay more attention to what he's doing when it comes time for drills, training camp, etc. There'll be some competition then, hopefully.

 

[gimmesix]

Actually it's Hamlin's poor performance on the field.

Not in this instance since there is nothing wrong with what Hamlin did. You have no way of knowing if he'll meet his prescribed number of workouts or even exceed it. You have no way of knowing what all he might be doing to improve his game. Etc.

I can agree that Hamlin is limited as a safety, and I would love for Dallas to upgrade. But there's no reason to use the fact that he was in LA instead of at the first day of voluntary conditioning to question his commitment to the game/team. You assume too much, which makes you the problem.

You're taking a snippet of his life and making major assumptions off it.

Actually it's Hamlin's poor performance on the field.

DC, his performance was not poor. In fact it was good; not great, but it was good. Yes, he can stand ot make more INTs, and can improve there, but he was alligning the defense, and his absense in this regard shoed when he was out with injury and Allan Ball was playing in his place. Aditionally, Hamlin hardly ever gave up the big pass play over the deep middle. That's his first and foremosr resposibility as FS and he excelled in that regard. And while he did not have the INTs, he had good production in terms of pass defense. It's not like he was getting burned for completions. If his play truly was poor then there's no way Allan Ball would had hit the pine again once Hamlin was back from injury. In fact, the defense played better overall immediatley upon his return. So "poor"? Na-ah. Let's be fair now.

Good points. Hamlin might not have gotten 5 INTs, but Newman and Jenkins combined for 9.

Give/take. It's nowhere near the 19 INTs we had in 2007, but Jacques Reeves got one, Roy Williams (the one who can't cover!!!) had 2, and Anthony Henry somehow managed to get 6!

I think if the team builds on what we started to get going from the CB position this season (no more Scandrick starting experiments), we'll see more INTs from both safeties combined. Hopefully Sensabaugh will have 2 hands to make plays with this year instead of only 1.

Look, the secondary does need to increase it's INTs, but that does not all fall on Ken Hamlin. The corners as a total unit need to contribute there as well.

But as far as Hamlin is concerned, the staff, and he, ne deed to determine if his declining INT production is due to a lack of effort or erding skills. While he did not give up too many big plays over the top, it could be because he playing a tad more back to compensate for a slight decline in speed. Nobody here really knows.

Or is it that he was overweight a bit and is that an explanation for playing too far back, if in fact he was? Or could his injuries over the past two years contribute? If that's it, sholdn't he be given credit for coming back last season for the stretch run? If so than that indocated a giving of effort.

Nobody on this board knows these things for sure, so to just chalk it up to a lack of effort is short sighted. But I'm sure the Cowboys' staffers know, and they'll make the right decisions in kind. As much as Dave Campo is disrespected around here by many, he still is a fantastic secondary coach, and so I'll trust he'll figure this out and get the right safeties and corners on the filed.

from what i, and many have seen, he has zero interest in being fair. he's definately one of those that once a target gets on someone, he won't let up. from here you get double, triple, quadruple - however many standards you need to "prove" your point.

then when you get on him for his "writing" style he hides behind "but im just a guy with a blog!"

he can dish it out, but he can't take it.
