At Christmas I went to a work party and met a guy who was all in on Steve Wilks as the perma-coach. We had a discussion and I disagreed. I explained my perspective on why we should move on, he shared his on why Wilks should stay. The conversation was civil. At no point did ask the man to step outside simply because our opinions differed because I'm not a petulant child. 

Yeah, asking him to step outside would have been the wrong move.

You should have waited till his back was turned then sucker punched him

one of the worst threads of all time. ALL TIME.

All wrong.  Look, we're on the INTERNETS!  You need the RAGE!  The petty insults!  The Passive Aggressive Arrogance!  Put them down!

Dude, this is is lamest as told on the internet but happened IRL story ever!!!

*SARCASM!!!!*

I've been on the internet for a long time (probably too much to be honest), and when I was a stupid kid - I would get legitimately mad at kids in chat rooms in the 1990s/2000s.  I look back on that dweeb I was and I laugh at myself for being such an internet moron.

That's why I try to be decent online.  My success varies, but I try to be myself.  Trolls have been around the webz for 25+ years, and if you can't handle them as an adult - time to get off the computer.  I tell my kids - Words are cheap, keystrokes are cheaper.

did you get this when you did your personal interviews with him?

No, as stated, he knows Bryce Young and his family.

good call @Ricky Spanish

and @WUnderhill...he's gone. i mean he'll probably create another account and when that one shows up, we'll get rid of it too. 

Too bad a monetary charge can't be done (to support this forum) to make an extra alt because that could be a deterrent to slow down so many alts being made. But this could cause a dislike of that happening between all of the huddlers here.

[mccjeff]

Wow that escalated. Thanks mods.

And I don’t even know how to create an alt but I wish I was cool enough for someone to accuse me of being one. Oh well.

If BY constantly gets injured like the OP says, it will wear him down tremendously and he won't get back to where he was. Look at Cam Newton for an example of that. It wasn't one injury that derailed his career (Watt hit was the straw that broke the camels back), it was seasons and seasons worth of wear and tear and before you know it, he goes from MVP to not being able to throw the football 15 yards anymore and off of the team.

 

but that can happen to any QB, regardless of size and it's impossible to discern who that will happen to because one group of QBs isn't more likely to have those kind of injuries than any other according to the data.

so what do we do? go ahead and draft and just hope that things work out or wait until the perfect unbreakable QB shows up and hope we're in position to draft him in that decade?

I've made that suggestion before

Threatening physical violence on folks in your own fanbase is as low as it gets. It's only football...

Ivory Panther and BriceYoung guy had a lot in common. And they aren't the only ones who engage in this behavior.

my goodness I haven't seen this much poo karma since 2 girls 1 cup.

But it appears it's perfectly acceptable for @WUnderhill to call @BriceYung9 a coward? Or the posters that use mental illness as a slur? 

 

This place has that blood in the water attracting sharks vibe. Folks pile on needlessly. Attacking the poster, not the post is the way of the Huddle.

 

Empathy and common civility. Two qualities in short supply. Not only in the world, but up in here as well.

 

End rant. And thanks for listening. And Bryce Young is still too dang short.

Oh heaven forbid I make fun of a draft prospect. Especially one who can't sit at the big boy table. 

 

Within minutes I'm being shown the door for making short jokes about a short QB. Consistent, thy name is Hudde.

This offseason's alts are the best since 2011. Not quite as colorful, but damn good.
