Hit on Newman was illegal

[Rack]

do I?

Most likely.

Actually I labeled the skins game a trap game and honestly thought we would lose it.

Maybe not insulting people will lead to people not questioning some of the things that come from your fingertips to my computer screen.

I didn't insult you. I expressed an impression I have of you.


And honestly, you stepped right into that one.


If you consider THAT an "insult" then you're a little thin skinned.


And the Commanders game comment wasn't directed at you.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

you're a little thin skinned.

Rack calling someone else thin-skinned? now I've seen everything :laugh2:

And you're a little (haha) ignorant.


When have I ever acted thin skinned? People call me names, flame me, insult... whatever. Doesn't bother me. I just come right back and do the same.


You don't see me complaining about being insulted when I wasn't even insulted.


You having a hard time figuring out something basic... doesn't surprise me one bit.


^^^ THAT was an insult. Go ahead, cry.

I figured out that we'd win today

oh, oh, oh, what now semi-pro? :laugh2:

There was absolutely nothing wrong or illegal about that hit.


You can helmet to helmet a runner. There's nothing illegal about helmet to helmet hits as long as it's not on the QB or a defenseless WR.

Except for the 2 yard catch rule.

 

[stealth]

while I would love to go back and forth with you in some whitty banter I have to go wax my back.

 

[DBoys]

Oh no, I was WROOOONG!

Have you ever been incorrect in predicting a cowboys game?

Something tells me you predicted the cowboys would beat the Commanders.

Oh, but I was wrong so let's make a big deal out of it.



And I predicted we'd lose by 21, not 17.







Did YOU predict we'd beat the Commanders? You wanna start calling me out cuz I was wrong about a game prediction? Go ahead, cuz I can do the same thing.

But I am not insulting people or questioning their intelligence. You do it every week and you guard a junkyard how ironic is that?

oh, oh, oh, what now semi-pro? :laugh2:

You didn't "figure" anything out. You made a prediction and got lucky. End of story.

Tell me, what factors did you consider when calcuting (aka figuring out) that we'd win?

You HOPED we'd win, and made a prediction. Good for you.

What was your prediction of the Skins game?

Except for the 2 yard catch rule.

I thought of that, but I'm pretty sure that rule was removed. I might be thinking of college football, but I'm pretty sure it's gone.

Even if it's still there, it was close.

our D is better than theirs'

not good :

I don't "guard" anything. I drive by once a night and get paid 40+ for every trip.

That's about 15 minutes of work, every night. I get paid about 160 dollars an hour. Tell me that's a dumb/bad thing.


And I only question the intelligence of ignorant/stupid people. Not my fault you happen to be in that category.

 

[Rack]

not good :

Not sure, but I think I predicted a loss.


And the "formula" I used to predict a loss this week was simple.


Win one, lose one, win one, lose one, etc... This week, if that trend continued, would of been a "lose one" week. Coupled with the fact that our D has been giving up big plays all year AND we were playing a big play team... well, there you go.


There is no one on the planet happier about me being wrong. A couple of years ago I was purposely predicting losses cuz I'm superstitious and it seemed to be helping us win (2003 I think). Of course eventually that "magic" ran out.



And about the Skins game, I think I predicted a loss. Not sure.

As some mentioned previously, that one is on Newman to protect himself. That was prolly one he needed to wave high and make the catch.

Great hit by their coverage guy. I'm glad the he fumbled so close to the sideline. But certainly, I'm even more elated that Newman was ok.

Alot of insults flying back and forth in this thread...sad after a good win, so

KNOCK IT OFF!!

Wait, I thought helment to helment is a flag no matter who the player is.

 

[Rack]

No. It's only a flag if it's on a QB or a defenseless WR.


Or, of course, if it's spearing. I don't think the guy lead with the top/crown of his helmet though.


Despite the league's attempt at doing so, it is still possible to have a great, monster hit w/it still being legal.

It's the usual crap by the same poster all year long no matter what the outcome.

The only ignorance is to call someone stupid you don't know. Since when is the amount of money we make a measure of intelligence? Oh I make this or I drive that and therefore I can insult people. I have a little secret for you the only fool in life is the one who justifies himself off of others.

This proves my point about you.


You insulted me cuz of what I do. I replied by pointing out that I get paid a lot of money (per hour) for the work. And I barely have to put in any time.


IMO, I'm coming out on top with that. But I guess only a doctor or politician does the work worthy of your praise?


And if you knew math, you'd have calculated - more or less - how much I make each week. And it sure as hell isn't a lot. It's just a lot compared to the amount of time I put in.


And FYI, I also do inventory for that same company. $3.50 per car, and there's usually over 200 cars (I do it once a month).



But I work at a used car lot, so I MUST be dumb/ignorant, right?





I work about 1 hour 45 minutes every week. And I make $300 (plus the 700+ I make a month doing inventory). Not exactly the most noble work, but it gives me time to take care of my uncle and still pay the bills. Don't like it? Good for you. Doesn't bother me one bit.
