Way to dodge the point. Nice.

Sure, the QB has more responsibility, but please show me where I said otherwise.

This is irrelevant. You and the OP presented the opinion that Romo is a failure if he doesn't reach the playoffs. Applying that same standard to other players on the team is perfectly legitimate as, again, this is a TEAM sport. Romo doesn't do it all himself, and I think this is what you and others seem to be stuck on.

Of course Romo could do better. Where I disagree with you and the OP is that Romo is a failure if the TEAM doesn't get to the playoffs.

Glad you found the smilies. Using them, however, doesn't cover up the ridiculous nature of your statement.


Right here is where I'd post a picture of an Ostriche's arse sticking up in the air if I had one.

LOL

I think this is where some of the discontent lies. This is a thread about Romo so my comments are more or less specific to Romo himself. Of course I don't expect him to overcome a bad O-line and or a bad D that gives him few chances and has him playing catch-up. There is also the intangible side that doesn't show up in the stats.

I would also sit Witten, begrudgingly. I only asked that question to try and illustrate to another poster that the QB position does have more responsibility for the team's success then any other position, over the long haul.

I know Romo has room to improve I also believe he has the talent to help this team and I think we are a team who can compete because of Romo not inspite of him. I think for this franchise to take the next step they have to start playing like a well oil machine which means many parts doing the job and that does include Romo. I have seen the list people make up about who the best QB's are today I'll just say there are many more QB's out there who are not as good as Romo

My list would be Montana, Aikman, Marino, Bradshaw, and Young.




Who quoted and then personally attacked who in this thread first?

Made fun of my sig ..... then called me a troll for disagreeing with you so what is the definition of fishing again?

Seems to me you are the one who is not interested in discussing things ..... just stating your "agenda" and playing the victim card when others disagree.


OK. Please tell me what the point of your post which I qouted was.

I appeared to be nothing more then attack on another poster. It contained absolutely no content relevent to this thread but simply attacked another poster, presumably for having an opinion (agenda :lmao: ) different from yours.

Up until you joined in, every one of my posts either expressed my opinion on the subject of the thread or presents a counterpoint to an already expressed opinion. You know.... like a discussion.;)

Your "victim card" comment is fascinating. You are always one of the first to start the personal attacks and make accusatory statements. That behavior is most commonly exhibited by people who feel their opinions are being belittled. In other words... victims. If you didn't take it personally why would you feel compelled to carry on this crusade I have witnessed since I arrived here?

I love a good debate. I'm no "victim".

This is exactly the response I expected. When all else fails and the agenda falls flat, fall back and resort to insults.

Dude, you have done exactly this since the beginning of this thread. You ignore what you need to and twist what you want to.

Hence the ostriche comment.

You have referred to my opinions as "stupid" among other things.

Back to the sandbox son.....

edited to add: I just realized the irony of your screen name.

Classic!

I think you asked me what the point of my post was? And that would be to give my opinion on some of the people who are furthering this anti romo/pro owens campaign. I had not included you among them .... but the way you are acting is changing my mind.

All evidence to the contrary

Oh wait ..... I just found out who you are.

I know what this is all about now.

This is a continuation of the old Roy Williams arguments.

I was wondering where the animosity was coming from .... why you seemed to be able to remember me, when I had no idea who you are.

Roy is gone now ...... you can let it go.

Romo is not on the downside of his career.

Double WOW!!!:eek:

This gets better and better. You actually took the time to go back and research my posts!! :lmao2: No "agenda" there huh? :lmao:


The point you are ignoring is that there is one constant in all these agenda posts. Yup, that's right... YOU. :lmao2: :lmao:


Look at you sig for pete's sake! :lmao2: :lmao:


Comparing our post counts it stand to reason why you would be more remembered then little ol' me.

I ask again...

What color is your cape?:lmao: :lmao2: :lmao:


And just for the record. You first came on my radar screen when you jumped my case for my thoughts on Williams. You've earned your place in my heart with the countless examples of the same behavior since then. Right up to and including this very thread.


I'm guessing it's a bright red. Nothing low key and behind the scenes about you....

You must have missed every Stilltheguru and RedRaiderCowboysFan post
Those are two good examples, but truthfully, it hasn't been every post. However, both have made it quite known that they stand behind their respective stances 110%.

Kid stuff son.

The sort of thing a juvenile would resort too when his back is against the wall and he's got nothing. I know.... it takes strength and character to take a hard look at one's self when faced with some criticism. I have faith that someday you will acquire some of that strength and character.

But for now you just keep "feeding on the tears of (us) trolls" to boost your little ego and compensate for whatever it is that needs compensating for.

:laugh2:

Who resorted to juvenile comments in this thread kid?

You admit to being some poor teenager who got his feelings hurt 2 years ago and expect me to take you seriously?

You attacked me in this thread because of past arguments (that I did not even remember).... not visa versa ..... then tried playing the victim card when you got slapped.

Now you are resorting to 10th grade psychology to try and save face.

Everyone of your arguments have failed ..... several members of this board have made you look silly ..... and the only ones agreeing with you are the butt hurt owens fans.

Sorry ...... but if you continue to act this way .... thats what happens.
