Negative Huddlers


Recommended Posts

If you are a negative or pessimistic fan. Read and Heed Mike Ditka's comment on life.

“If you have a good attitude about life, if you’re positive, you can achieve anything. If you’re negative, you’ll achieve nothing. And besides that, you’ll be a pain in the ass to be around.”

I prefer to be an optimist. Pessimists think things can't get any worse. An optimist knows that they will.

Pretty solid advice that's very generic and vanilla. Often times Realists get mixed up with pessimists though. 

The reality is that the water is half way up the glass.  Optimists say it is half full.  Pessimists say it half empty. They are both realistic but they have a different perspective.  People who tend on focus on the negative are no more realists than those who are focused on the positive.

Strange I thought it was normal to be negative?

There is evidence to suggest being negative has some genetic links but it is a choice.  Problem is that most people prefer the negative and politics, marketing and many things in our lives focus on the negative.

I always thought that it depended on if you were adding water to the glass, or taking it out.

 

Adding = half full

Rmoving = half empty

Nope.  Still the same.  If you are removing water it is just as easy to say it is still half full as it is to say now it is half empty.

That is very true. But is I am thirsty and drinking the water, and want more I am more likely to say, pass me the water jug, my glass is half empty than to say it is still half full.

 

It just depends on the situation.

 

Jus tlike I hate when people ask my favorite color because it depends on what you are talking about. I like a dark blue shirt, but a black car, and I would not paint my bedroom either of those colors.

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
    • I’m hoping SMU messes it all up and wins out. Imagine the SEC & BI0 would crap themselves trying to “fix” the problem.
