I don't think I have ever seen anyone make it their job to defend a player to the ends of the earth in this fashion.

Unbelievable.
I couldn't do it. Not only would it not interest me, but I couldn't stand the stigma attached. I will criticize anyone in the Cowboys organization when I feel it is right and praise them when I feel it is right. I think it goes to extremes when you take such offense to criticism of any player.

This thread is iLame.

Well, it could have been a fun little wager but someone decided not to participate after calling someone else out elsewhere. Typical.

I'd guess that this bet isn't going to happen. Bleu I understand what you're doing here but, really, if he didn't take you up on the bet, and ignored it, in another thread did you really think he was suddenly going to take you up on it in another thread?

Come on man.

I should have known better than to think one of the most staunch critics of TO would own up to his own challenge set forth elsewhere.

Well, thank goodness there are folks like me that see things differently. Otherwise, every post on this board about TO would be an obituary.

i dont think defending ANY player against the single-minded blind attacks is near as bad as the people who want to take 13 years of futility and blame it on one guy for "off the field issues".

I think people in general are too eager to find a sound bite and run with it rather than look at a full picture.

Speaking of TO, Since 12/21/08 this is the 3rd TO related thread I have started. Can any of the critics claim anything close to that number?

I don't buy the Jerry curse either.

I would rather look at the broad picture and say blame rests in multiple places.

Good. Now go over your last 100 posts and count how many didn't involve T.O., T.O.'s haters, or just nonsense posts in threads about T.O.

I'm sure it will be a tiny number. You're a one track poster.

Now, let's clarify. Did I start any of those posts?

I see nothing wrong with defending TO. It's no different than the fact that you see nothing wrong with jettisoning him to solve all of the problems at Valley Ranch.

It doesn't iMatter.

Do the count. You're a one-track poster.

:lmao: Ok man. You win. I'm a one track poster.

Just as long as we have the understanding that I don't come to this board looking to start the next TO thread. ;) Some do.

you don't have to start one. either one is already made or you make an unrelated thread all about him. Tim Tebow thinks this thread should be closed.

:rolleyes:

Count them up. (3)

Edit: I'm sure when the mods get tired of the back & forth they'll take action. My reason for starting this thread was well defined and it didn't happen. I learned quite a bit via this thread. It's all good on this end.

Okay, I was dying to know.

Not sure why 12/21/08, but I checked clear back to then.

I have started 126 threads in that time. 1 was about TO. Sort of. It wasn't really, but releasing him was the first thing I mentioned.

Does that qualify me for a cookie?

That's as far back as my first search page went and I felt that was far enough.
