Before you make fun of the fans that get mad, remember it was Gman who made his comments.

Just cause you have it don't mean you have to spend it right away. I like the careful approach but then again I'm only running a household not a NFL franchise.

About "stepping up in class " and not "having to shop at the dollar tree." because this year "we are better off financially." I see a lot of people make fun of the fans that get mad at Gman for not signing notable FAs. You can't get mad at the 6 year old kid when it was his own daddy that said "now son, last Christmas times were tough, but because daddy is in better financial shape this Christmas, we can now step up in class in terms of Christmas gifts." You can't blame the 6 year old when he is disappointed on Christmas morning when he gets a Xbox 360 when it was Daddy who led him to believe that this year will be the Xbox one.

Yes previous years when Gman would come out and flat out say we are cap challenged and won't be making any moves then the people that expected big moves deserved to be disappointed. This year is different, Gman is the one that gave fans hope with his own words. Just saying

 

 

I like your metaphor of comparing the fans who are getting mad to 6-year olds.

 

I couldn't agree more.

OfcoursecI didn't expect a Maclin, Cobb of Suh but a Torrey Smith I thought was reasonable

 

 

Except that now its being predicted that Torrey Smith could be getting a deal around $7-8 million per year.

 

You think that kind of salary is "Target" and not "Tiffany's"?

Dave Gettleman got roasted the entire offseason and most of the regular season and by January he was a saint. Typical fandom in a results driven business.

Yes I do. Suh, THATS Tiffanys. Torrey at 7-8 mill is reasonable

[The Huddler]

You are litterally comparing yourself to a six year old. Its accurate

You don't have to call me sir.  

[MasterAwesome]

Revising your own analogy, Gettleman is like the new stepdad trying to put his family back together after the old drunk abusive stepdad (Hurney) took all their money and left. How about little 6-year-old brat Timmy be grateful that his new dad is doing the best he can under the circumstances.

So even though G-man specifically stated he would NOT be shopping at Tiffany's, it is G-man's fault for getting fan's hopes up to much?

 

 

I don't even...

I've had quite a few good laughs because of those posts. Hope they keep it up!

Jus because we are not cap challenged now doesn't mean we are cap rich either. The guys that are quality are above our pay scale which is why he shoots for value in lower tiers, it just wont be in the bottom tier anymore.

Visualize Dave Gettleman playing xbox and laugh along with me.
