not good enough

It doesn't have to be good enough for you. Everyone has a right to their opinion as long as it is presently civilly. I am just wondering what you expected to happen. If you want sympathy and outrage appear on the View. On a football forum this was actually.pretty tame

I can understand why she’s being hostile. If I was a woman on this board, I’d be hostile as well. Also, when feeling ignored and feeling like the issues that you’re bringing forth aren’t being taken seriously, I can understand how that would breed hostility as well.

Just because you understand it doesn't mean it's going to help her reach other people who are less forgiving. If you want your thread and beliefs to be taken seriously you need to keep it together and have a real discussion. I understand her frustration as well but I'm not going to try to have a real discussion with someone who refuses to play nice. That's lunacy.

I'm not saying the Huddle doesn't have its trolls and jackassess but I don't believe it's a large group of contributors.  Like I said they just shout louder for attention.

it's a significant portion of the regular posters as evidenced by almost every remotely political thread on the main board getting torpedoed into the tinderbox (Kaep, Greg Hardy DV in 2014, Michael Bennett).

there's a reason the vast majority of this forums contributors are men, and its not just because NFL fans are majority male.

then maybe us contributors who aren't trolls and jackasses should take on some of the burden of calling out the bull**** for what it is, instead of leaving it to the one or two self-identified women in this thread to deal with. again.

I think someone said in this thread "know you audience" and calling your audience "idiots" will not work in your favor. Most likely the catalyst of escalation. 

the catalyst of escalation was that a woman posted an opinion that had the slightest tinge of controversy in a forum where so many male posters can't handle that sort of thing. it was escalated long before she used the word 'idiot'.

I was attacking the idiots who didn't come in here to have a civilized discussion. Have you any read this thread? Your post on the first page is ridiculous as well.

My initial post was in response to your sensationalist headline and bolded statement. My true feelings on the subject have been realized and I apologize if you found my OP ridiculous or condescending.

I am assuming you read my original comment? Are you stating that you believe the OP replied correctly to me on a equal sided acknowledgment that did not indicate any type of social injustice or workplace inequality?

It's not my responsibility to white knight and argue for people who cant hold their own. I am here to give my opinion. But sure...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By bythenbrs · Posted

      True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I admit.]

      Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.

      I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch
