You had to have someone point out to you that an average is the best indicator?

However PBJTime also makes a point, because the highest time is what is always quoted.
Very true. Their best Combine time is what is normally quoted. And his best Combine time is 4.70. But you weren't quoting his best time. You were saying he runs a 4.6, which isn't true.

Accordingly, if we were to make a comparision using Spencer's AVERAGE time against the TOP times that were quoted for everyone else it would be a false comparison.

When people discuss the times players ran at the combine, they aren't discussing the average of several times, they are discussing his best time - which is also the time that best indicates his top end potential.

Why should we use that standard for everyone else and not for Spencer?
We don't have to do that. Look at his best Combine time against other players' best Combine times. It's not spectacular. You can't compare his Pro Day times. Players run on different tracks in different conditions at Pro Days.

STILL - YOU NEVER EVER EVER address the fact that you are going ON AND ON AND ON again about something that wasn't even the point of my post.

That's your MO - you take a kernal out of context that has little to do with the focus of the post on harp on it.

Get over it - start reading posts and realizing what the point was.
I wasn't adressing your overarching point. I was addressing a mistake in your post. Why did I need to point this out to you? Isn't it obvious? Why do we have to point everything out to you?

Wow, you are weak.

Where did I say that? I was merely agreeing with the point you made.

Your incredible attempts to pat yourself on the back and proclaim victories that aren't there defies logic.

You spend a lot of time looking at yourself in the mirror and listening to recordings of your voice and telling yourself you are the best looking and coolest sounding guy around - don't you?

Speaking of weak....

You quoted the wrong person.

That, or somehow, abersonc's laughing emoticon spoke to you.

You are right - I accidentally clicked on the wrong post.

My apologies to abersonc.

ogt, consider my last post directed at you.

No harm (to me).

I just thought it was kind of funny.

Not really harm to anyone ...... the key is that mistakes will be made at times and when they are there is nothing to do but acknowledge and accept it.

If you think that says that I didn't already realize it then you have serious comprehension problems.

Let me clue you in - AGREEING WITH SOMEONE IS NOT THE SAME AS SAYING YOU DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW.

For example (maybe you can grasp this), if I said 2+2=4, and you said, yes, 2+2 does equal 4, I would assume you already knew that in advance. IT may be a stupid assumption in your case, but I at least realize that agreeing is not the same as saying you didn't already know.

Of course, that kind of blind thinking is why you beleive that just because a player is a backup at one spot it means he can't play anwhere else .......... don't think I haven't noticed how you have avoided my post in the other thread showing how ALL of our LB's have played multiple positions.

What the entire exchange says to me is that you're a complete waste of time and thought. Good day, sir.

There you go - back to the substanceless response you come up with when backed into a corner.

I miss the "I'm rubber you're glue" style response you used the other day - can I hear that one again?

That was actually abersonc. If you would slow down and read more closely, you might catch those little details.

Just trying to present an argument he could actually understand.

More substanceless crap - when all else fails, create a smokescreen.
Obviously, it was you I was responding too, and don't sell the members here short - they know a smokescreen when they see it.

Oh? You presented it? So you and ogt are one and the same?

Same approach and illogical viewpoints - I shouldn't be surprised.

So, I guess I can direct my comments to either one of you and know I am communiucating with the right person.

No, I wasn't even involved in the "rubber and glue" conversation from a day or two ago. That was completely you and abersonc. You have a horrible memory.

Damn, maybe I do - you two seem so interchangeable (I wonder how each of you are listed on the depth chart).

I've been following this thread closely* and I have to say, I approve of the substance in this post.




*Not closely.

Well, they (he) have (has) successfully steered things away from the topic haven't they (he)?

I'll accept my share of the blame though - I shouldn't have taken the bait when I was engaged in a "discussion" over a point that was almost immaterial to the that point I made in my post
