It's gotten to the point where I want us to select a WR just to piss Fuzzy off.

And 5stars you wouldnt know common sense if it came up and bit you straight in the backside.

You still going to try and tell me that a contractor whose contract recently expired is no longer in the industry?

Holy Christ, some of us do have other things to do in life rather than sit here and respond to every single reply.

You've done this several times in this thread. Where someone doesn't completely respond to every single post or point you make you declare that their entire argument is wrong and thus you are right. Holy cripes, dude, you seriously come off as bat**** crazy in this thread.

No actually you did it at least three times in this thread and then act is if my responses were nonexistent. I have to call you out just to get you to recognize them at that point and they have been there since about page 4. Sure you may have other things to do but its coming at mighty convenient spots.

Just tell him he's right...that's all he wants, and the world can get back to normal...

He's not going to give in...but, you have to admire his efforts, although somewhat flawed when it comes to choosing a draft choice because, and I say this again, there are just to many variables to take into consideration when trying to apply them to some math formula. Fuzzy used only three (and he determined those himself) to come to his conclusion, that's why his conclusion is, well, fuzzy, to say the least..

and you talk of common sense. i have stated repeatedly that i just want to discuss the topic but every time i do he disappears only to come back a couple hours later and act as if i had never responded. then post links to math definitions and say id ont know what im talking about.

as for the number of positions selected. i didnt choose them this is an offshoot of a previous thread where those three positions were represnted by others.

and i still have yet not seen one person actually try to arge that WR is the most risky.

He's is no longer employed in that industry. He may have a desire to get a contract, he may be applying for a job in that industry, however, as long as he has no contract, he is not employed in that industry!

Get it!

Hey, I'm a contractor in the "brain surgeon" industry, but, I have no contract, hence, I am not in that industry...

Same thing with Bryant...he might want to get back into the NFL industry, but, no contract, no job, which means, as of this time, he is not in the NFL industry.

Now, that does not mean he is not trying, but, as of now...nope!

Solly Cholly...

to be in an industry, wouldn't you have to be actually working in an industry to be considered in it?

the analogy i used was my families HVAC company. At one time we were exclusively commercial so lets say we were working on a job say that that theatre we did in san antonio and we finished it but had 4 bids out that had not closed.

You wouldnt say that we were no longer in the HVAC industry.

Another way to look at it is players retiring from the NFL when their contracts have expired. How do you retire from something that you are not a part of?

Exactely! See, this is common sense!

It's does not matter if you are a "contractor" or an "employee"...if you don't have a job in your profession...you are NOT IN industry...that is of course, unless you are in the fuzzy math industry, or the confrontational industry, or the arguement industry...then FuzzyLump is the Prez...

btw fuzzy, tracking the last 5 drafts, on average, 4 receivers have been taken in the 1st, 2 OTs

I hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but according to the people that matter, your stats mean very little, it's a nice figure to know, but it holds very little bearing

And of those 5 drafts that means 20 WRs and 10 OTs. Of them 10 WR have busted and only 3 OT on average.

you still dont grasp the concept that just becuase teams do it doesnt make it a good idea. Matt Millen has done many things nad hes an NFL GM that doesnt make his decisions wise.

Weve been through this before summer.

So every free agent in the history of the NFL is not in the NFL?

Trippy.

Semantics war has merged with WR draft war, to become one of the finest, most nonsensical forum wars of all time. Noone has any idea what the other side is saying any longer, they only know that the other side is wrong. Let's watch quietly as the anxious squirrel dismembers the sea turtle.

I have no idea how that works, so it's over my head

I don't get it, don't they have a NFLPA?

Thanks, you made my point right here...

Retired, or released...until you have another "contract" to get back IN...you are OUT!

Get it Fuzz....IN, OUT, IN, OUT! You cannot be both!
