Oh, I agree and there is nothing wrong with it at all. But people, as you can see by many post on this board hate it when all the ESPN's of the world only talk about them and how great there are.

It does get old, as if no one else has a chance.

That is the main reason that I want the Patriots to lose before the Super Bowl. Whether it be us or Green Bay that would make it to the Superbowl, for two weeks all we are going to hear about is the Patriots shot at Perfection. I will probably not watch much NFL Network or ESPN for that whole 2 weeks because of it and that will effect my enjoyment of the ride per se.

Agreed.

I want to beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl too.

Gawd, all the stakes that would be on the line in that game would be insane.

1. Beating an undefeated team
2. Getting the 6th Lombardi Trophy
3. The Genius Coach vs The guy that just fell into the job
4. T.O. vs Moss

I would love to see that rematch, but the Cowboys and Patriots have to do their part ;) .

I can't beleive that we're 13-3 with HFA throughout the conference, had the best year in 10 years, and seemingly 90% of the vibe around this team is negative.

We're doomed because Ireland is gone.

We're doomed because we lost to the Skins in a game we didn't try to win.

We're doomed because we didn't win every game in December by 14 points.

We're doomed because we already know the next four years of drafts will suck.

We're doomed because Wade has never won a playoff game.

And on and on and on.


Meanwhile, the local media are, for the most part, killing this team. I'm listening to Galloway and Engel today, and Galloway insists we did have a December collapse just like last year and that Wade is a "big doofus". Hate is giggling away at Bill taking so many of our personnel and Jerry screwing things up. Both agree that if Wade doesn't win a playoff game, he should be and will be fired.

It's insanity. I'm no pollyanna, and have criticized the team plenty of times during bad or disappointing years. But this year has been great, and there still seems to be as much negativity as when we were 5-11 and fighting over Carter and Hutchinson.

Can anyone explain this? I truly don't understand it. If this is what it's like during a 13-3 year that exceeds all expectations, what's there to look forward to in a year that's merely good?

What a whiney post, dude!!!!!
You are whining about people . . . whining!
Classic Chocolate. But that's just you.

Compose yourself, dry your tears and comb your long hair, Pollyana!!
:laugh2:
"Oh, such negativity" (Just because the past several games have been disasters)
"Oh, can't we just enjoy 13-3?" (We all enjoy it, but an underachieving team won't exist for long in the playoffs.)
"Oh, woe! I'm no Pollyana." (Oh, yes you are, Pollyana!)
"Oh, snap! The media is being mean to us!" (There is no crying in the Zone!! Remember what yo mama told you: Sticks and stones and all that now stop crying, you whiner!)
"Oh, the negativity. Can someone explain this?" (OK, Polly, it's because this team has no momentum going in the playoffs. Now take your pacifier and go to sleep.)

:laugh2:

You know something - I was JUST thinking to myself; "This is a decent thread, but it would be exponentially better if some blowhard schtick-poster who can't abide people criticizing his crap-hole threads weighed in on the subject."

And then, sure enough you slept off the hangover and showed up. Personally, I couldn't be happier.

whining about our team on a message board makes me (and quite a few others) aggitated for going on this board and seeing nothing but negativity. We are fans, and yes, sometimes can be blind homers, but no one is saying we are perfect, but just let those of us that actually support this team to do so. Since when has spouting negative things ever contributed to the health of things? Constructive criticism is one thing, claiming we are one and done, and limping into the playoffs as the #1 seed is quite annoying.

just let us enjoy it. why you gotta go and say santa claus doesn't exist anyway? What else? What else??? dear god, can you tell what else is wrong in the world? don't tell me the tooth fairy doesn't exist either! I don't think I can take it.

funny. if you talk to him the world is stupid and he can guide the way to...somewhere, i'm sure. while it's not a sign of right or wrong, it's nice to know i'm not the only one this "beautiful poster" frustrates.

I don't post much around here...but I have been around here a long time... even before the new site was up....

I was a little more than upset that we did not win a VERY winnable game. I even came on and posted my worries (And I don't post much at all)....but really I was just mad....It did not help that I had to watch that game with a HUGE Commanders fan....I think some people just got riled up and could not let it go....

I just wanted to post that I have let it go....I am the charter member of the "I have let the Commanders loss go" club.

Now I find that I want the Commanders to win in Seattle so they can come here and we can KICK THEIR TEETH IN!!!!!!!!!!

:skins: :skins: :skins: :skins: :skins: :skins: :skins:
:skins::shoot2: :shoot2: :shoot2: :shoot2: :shoot2:

Come on Commanders...you bunch of LOSERS....get your ACE into Big D so we can :skins:

I feel much better!

For someone who takes criticism so poorly, you certainly dish it out.

I think I'll start calling you "Olive Oil." Okay?;)

Get it? Blutto...Olive Oi...

Oh, nevermind.:p:

Don't hold back - tell us how you really feel about GTB's contributions. ;)

For ****'s sake, don't try to take up that half-assed meme. What kind of attention-starved, prepubescent wacko do you have to be to think Marilyn Manson is a decent artist anyhow? :confused:

now - go be beautiful. someone out there needs some insult-love-monkey around and you're the poster for the job.

Talkin' bout my diabeetus.

It's cool to be worried about the team. I'm petrified at the way we finished the season, but it doesn't do any good whining about it too much. I just want to believe they're fixing all that and that we're just holding back for the playoffs.

I think Scipio-Cowboy diagnosed it well, a while back. People always lookking for the dark cloud are robbed of being fans like the rest of us because they're too scared of being let down to enjoy the moment.

Or something like that. If he's monitoring this thread, his eloquence would be appreciated. :cool:

And I don't want you and I don't need you
Don't bother to resist, or I'll beat you
It's not your fault that you're always wrong
The weak ones are there to justify the strong

The beautiful posters, the beautiful posters
It's all relative to the size of your keyboard
You can't see the forest for the trees
You can't smell your own shyte on your knees

There's no time to discriminate,
Hate every other poster
That's in your way

[Chorus:]
Hey you, what do you read?
Something you don't like, something to mock?
Hey you, are you trying to be mean?
If you live with apes man, it's hard to be clean

The jerks will live in every post
It's hard to pick which one they hate the most

The horrible posters, the horrible posters
It's as anatomic as the size of your keyboard
Capitalism has made it this way,
Old-fashioned posters will take it away

[Chorus]

There's no time to discriminate,
Hate every other poster
That's in your way

The beautiful posters
The beautiful posters (aahh) [x4]

[Chorus x2]

The beautiful posters [x8]
