Phase 1: He's a cancer and anyone who can't see that is stupid and doing nothing but wearing blinders.

Phase 2: We only won 1 super bowl, he's no Michael Irvin, if we had Michael Irvin and not the wannabe we could start focusing in on a repeat super bowl visit, but TO's going to do nothing but rip this team apart from the inside! If you can't see, you're blinD!!!! He started doing it last year, HIS FIRST YEAR WITH US! So what if we won a super bowl, Philly went their first year with him too, he's a cancer and we're all going to pay for it in the end.

Phase 3: Back2Back BABY! But I'm still just holding my breath for the big blow-out between Parcells and TO. It's coming. You're all blind. And I bet before the season is half over it will happen, 8-8, maybe 9-7, that's all.

Phase 4: 3 super bowl wins, so what, I CAN NOT BELIEVE JERRY JUST RESIGNED THAT CLOWN! As if the first time around wasn't lesson enough. We could have been free of this cancer.

Phase 5: (20 years later) TO was one of a kind and almost solely responsible for our run there at the beginning of the century. God, how I wish we could find another player like him. Today's NFL is just too saturated and watered down, guys like TO are a lost breed. It was an honor the day he retired as a Cowboy. I remember a "friend" of mine, he HATED Owens and could just never understand his biased hate for a person whom he had never met and who was only destined to bring great things to the team we love. All in all, looking back...I wouldn't change a thing. Fan for life! #81.

I'm not mocking anyone.

or maybe we've had family live through cancer and think it's a freaking STUPID ANALOGY to put such a tragic event in peoples lives and compare it to a "game".

it's the people such as yourself who FORCE your views upon others and say "if you don't believe as i do you're STUPID!!!!

well, i don't see things as you do and i'm far from stupid. so now what? any other "stupid" phrases you wanna lob out?

Satire.

It's just not appreciated these days.

oh i love satire. i live and revel in it. but calling a player in a game a cancer is just a personal thing to me.

Point taken, and another reminder of the power of 'semantics'.

But I am sure Glitz had no idea of your loss, and the thread title itself uses that overused 'analogy'.

Glitz is one of the better posters here - sane, responsible and eloquent.

He just hasn't sorted out the various landmines yet.

no, that's fair enough and i fully realize this is my *own* pet peeve and he's certaily not alone in the use of that analogy. i usually just move on but sometimes i gotta vent. it's all good.

I hear ya. For me it's the "R" word that has made such a rebound here, regardless of its supposedly 'updated' meaning.

A word that if my siblings or I used as kids, we earned a soap washed mouth by grandma. Immediately. And she didn't care if it was Ivory or Lava.

But hey, you're right - it's all good.

And will be even better after the Texans are sent packing.

So What Do You Guys Have To Say Now?

So What Do You Guys Have To Say Now?

what's your point, no-return-key man?

i don't care what TO does and doesn't do - my point here is i hate the word "cancer" to decribe a player in a game.

fyi - i still hate it.

 

[STSINAZ]

too bad lettuce....he is a cancer!

great - i can now ignore no-return-man who chooses to be an intentional peckerhead.
