Tri1 and bubba are never going to be able to walk the same after that.

I gotta say I thoroughly enjoyed that for a couple of reasons.

First of all it is beyond amusing to me that the Washington Post gets so many things wrong, but the DMN and Mickey Spagnola are dead on Gospel truth. Did anyone else besides me find the irony of that hilarious?

How anyone can equate having to get under the cap with managing the cap is beyond me. Yes, Jerry and Stephen Jones have restructured deals and extended deals to make it possible to make future deals. Somehow this is the same as doing it because you are over the cap? How anyone can believe that, much less two guys, is really amusing.

Bubba actually believes tr1 owned Adam. :lmao2:

Honestly, it's a symbiotic relationship. Cowboys fans feed them their (Bubba and TR1's) desired reaction and the Cowboys fans, in return, get what they want (the feeling that they are superior). In short terms, Cowboys fans get to say, look how dumb Commanders fans are and TR1 and Bubba get to sit back and say, look how dumb Cowboys fans are. I see no reason why this equitable relationship should end.


Firehawk do you post at ES?

Iin this case it IS NOT equitable. tr1 (Tony Romo #1) and bubba (gum) are wrong and Adam is right when it comes to this discussion! One wrong and one right does not equate to "equitable".

It's pretty stupid when someone does not even know that they are stupid when it comes to things they know nothing about.


:rolleyes:

It is amusing to read, since nobody on that site can lay a glove on Adam, but it's painful, too, since tr1 isn't capable of taking a topic seriously. He's getting all of this good information about the cap and he's just doing his stupid rope-a-dope.

If any Redsk*n fan were capable of taking a poster here that far behind the woodshed, I'd be pm'ing our guy and asking him to stop making an *** of himself--and by extension--this forum, publicly.

+1.

his overuse of "pukes" says he's just a skins homer and will talk trash till he dies. logic need not apply.

That thread was hilarious, I have been reading it since it started. TR1 and Bubba sure are funny. Their bag of tricks almost has me signing back up on Extremeskins to give them hell.

well, there's a fraction of fans who are that way i'm sure. maybe a larger one than i'd even guess. but a vast majority can take the "team colored" glasses off for awhile and know where things sit and don't have to spin it to their favor.

but yea, there's always the jr high mindset of "my team is better than your team and it doesn't matter why, it just is". i'm sure their superfriends underoos with the little feet on them looks good at the team practices they watch from afar.

you'd get banned quickly. but like the other skins fans said, it's a game some people choose to play just to play it. winning is all in the mind at that point anyway.

Right there with you. Been banned under numerous Sonnyboy and Romo#1 variations. Hard to keep track.

I have a new identity under a new IP address. Planned to be a good boy, but got banned for 30 days last week.:laugh2:

I read about the first ten pages. Usually I don't bother with ES, I simply don't have the patience to wade through the muck to find something worth reading.

But as I was reading this thread, I really kept thinking to myself "Why don't they understand what is being said? This is so simple." Maybe I've just read too much of Adams' cap information over the years, both here and on KFFL, and I can understand the cap rules somewhat easily.

What I can't understand, though, is how some people can be so incredibly dense, and I'm not only referring to tr1 and bubba. They are unique in their... dispositions, and I know many Skins fans are not akin to them. But, here someone is actively trying to educate them on the cap, and he is figuratively booed by most, although not all. It boggles me.

Sometimes I wonder if CBZ looks like ES to fans of other teams. I can't say for sure, as I am not one, but things definitelly seem a bit more civil and informative here.

Can't believe this thread got 50 replies. Think that's a record for me.

I'd like to make a request of the almighty AdamJT13.

It's what you might call the nuclear bomb option for that salary cap thread.

If it's not too much work.
Why not list all the players that the Cowboys and Commanders have under contract for 2009?

We can see for ourselves how much we're paying D. Ware and compare that to how much they are still paying L. Arrington. We can see what Romo costs and compare that to what I'm sure they still owe M. Brunnell.

Oh and throw in all the dead money!;)
Then let's see tr1 tell us how much better the skins manage the cap!:laugh2:

It's simple only if you care about the truth. If you don't, then you have to create a bunch of wild speculation and call anything that refutes that speculation "nonsense."

I got 20 bucks in my pocket right now. I will offer it in a 10 to 1 odds bet with ANY Commanders fan. In other words if I lose all you will owe me is 2 bucks back.

I bet that 20 bucks against ANY Commanders fan's 2 bucks that Adam can get closer to the exact amount the Commanders are against the cap than Bubba and tr1 put together can calculate with their abacus and shoes off. I'll even go so far as to say slide rules and calculators won't help them.

They know there is a Cap. Adam actually gets it.

There is a very simple answer to that question. THE TRUTH HURTS.

They don't want to to hear the truth, THEY CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH!

The truth I'm referring to is that their all-time winning percentage against their most hated rival is .391.

The other more painful truth right now is that we are twice the team they are. We are a legit SB contender and they are an also ran.

Nobody outside of DC has anything good to say about their team. They see all the good press and prognostications the Cowboys are getting and it kills them! The Cowboys are everything they wish the skins could be.

Because we're very, very sick.

:grin:

Here's an analogy that even the simplest minded people should be able to grasp. It's about food storage.

Consumer A has a large pantry and keeps it stocked an rotated with a steady supply of food. He does this in case of an emergency, buys on sale, and is constantly looking ahead.

Consumer B waits until there is speculation that stores will not be able to sell food because the computers will nto know how to handle the Y2K date and goes out with other panic shoppers and buys despite high prices.


In the end, both have the same amount of food. Does anyone really think how they acquired the food is exactly equal and equally smart? Seriously?


That's the difference between how the two clubs are handling the Cap. One is patiently looking ahead and keeping the Cap managed. The other one waits until the last minute and then has to scramble like mad to make it.

Has anybody got links to other Commander forums? I refuse to believe that is the pinnacle of their fan base.
