In regards to Henson

[theogt]

That shows right there you knew it had been 3 weeks, and yet here you are claiming you didn't know. Could you explain this?

Today I do not recall seeing week 1. I remeber week 2 and 3 distinctly. Perhaps I have seen week 1, but I don't remember it now. For whatever reason today I assumed that weeks 2, 3, and 4 were weeks 1, 2, and 3. It's not really a big deal. In fact, it changes absolutely nothing about what I've said. I'm sorry if I confused anyone else when referring to the wrong game. I made a mistake and I don't mind admitting it. That does not however have any relevance to my assessment of the games I have watched.

Wow, the Ronald Reagan.

Meet the teflon poster, "I really don't recall, I may have had knowledge about that at one time, but I really don't remember."

The use of emoticons strongly reinforces your point, which I might add have been consistently relevant throughout the thread. You deserve an A+.

Yet another attempt to deflect, further proof you have lost and are grasping for straws.

Brilliant retort sir.

Oh, the irony...and you're completely oblvious to it. In the end its not really shocking.

Romo is the same age as Henson. I think Romo is one month younger than Henson? Or is it other way round? Either way there are pretty much same age.

So if one of them emerges as Starting QB, they will be essentially of same age. I don't care if they start at 27-28, if they in their lifetime win one-two SBs, they will be tremendous success. Maybe they never end up in HOF like Aikman or Roger, but if they get one-two SBs for cowboys, they will be forever in Cowboys lore.

What will age matter then?

Look at Trent Green and Rich Gannon. Tell me you wouldn't kill for the kind of production that they give/gave their respective teams late in their careers and I will call you a damned liar.
John Elway won two Super Bowl titles after age 35. Steve Young didn't end up starting regularly until his late 20's/early 30's. For every young guy that was drafted and thrown in the fire early and succeeded there is an older guy or a retread that "got it" late in his career.

One of the things that has me concerned on Henson is his age.

He is already 26 and by the time 2008 comes around, he will be 28. So is he really the "future at QB" if he does start at some point? Even if he could play at a good level until age 35, thats only 7 years.

I like Henson and I also like Romo. I just want at least one of them to be ready to step up to the next level.

Troy Aikman had about 7 good seasons which is more than alot of QB's. 7 years in the NFL is an eternity.

If your BS about not knowing was in fact true, you'd have a point.

However, it's been shown you did know, it wasn't a mistake, it was just spin control to deflect away from the Henson bashing you were doing under the claim of supporter...which also was shot to pieces.

You are chasing your tail much like your favorite poster Nors does, so why not follow the other typical Nors playbook and disappear when the battle is lost.

 

[Clove]

My point about QB's is right. It doesn't matter what the passes look like (Carter), it doesn't matter how you throw the ball (VYoung,Henson) it matters if you can lead your team to a victory.

Some people just don't seem to get that. People around here blasted QCar for the way his passes looked and crap like that, but no other QB has managed to get us into the playoffs after him.

Same with Henson.... Henson does't throw a pretty pass, but guess what? He get's it there, and he just finds a way to make plays. I like Henson, and I'm rooting for Henson, and if you are a Cowboys fan, you need to pray that Henson does good, because this saves us years of searching.

Roger Staubach didn't start for the Boys until he was 28, he lasted 10 years..

You just lost all credibility. I've explicitly derided Nors. Couldn't stand the guy. Your assumption that because Nors and I remotely share a view on one topic, I am a fan of his again indicates your ability to have meaningful conversation. You are quite simply an illogical, mudslinging homer who would rather resort to ad hominem than have a meaningful discussion. Have a nice day and good luck in life with your apparent social ineptitude.

And he could have played a few years longer. He shocked the Cowboys with his retirement, had they known they would have drafted Joe Montana in the third round instead of Doug Cosbie.

i love when people try to out-hibrow the other.

does anyone *really* use "ad hominem" in casual conversation???

I have on occasion, but I'm kind of a douchebag.

well at least you're hitting both sides of the spectrum. : )

I see sarcasm is beyond your grasp as well, I'd have never guessed.

I'll give you the remedial version:

Your act is Nors-like.

Get it now?

Sarcasm? I think you misunderstand the term. Sarcasm is where a facetious meaning is used to denote another opposite meaning. You were not using sarcasm. You were implying exactly what you were saying. That is not sarcasm.

Your favorite poster Nors = sarcasm.

Your string of brilliant posts continues...care to guess what term can be used to describe that comment?
