And I'd rather have him than Kyle Orton who I still don't think could handle something like Quinn did yesterday.

He's getting traded to Oakland?

I will never stop asking myself those questions.

It has happened to me twice in my life, and the one thing both of them had in common was complacency. "It just doesn't matter."

If I ever hear that again from anyone, my antennae will be fully erect and I will be involved.

Well, the saying "how are you?" is too common and familiar that we're so accustomed to it. In other words, we're programmed to say it.

That's the problem right there. Because were so programmed to say "how are you?" We actually become desensitized to the actual saying itself.

Now, I'm no expect on this topic but I'm just stating what I believe.

No, and that's why I don't do it. I don't really care how most people are doing. I usually say "hi" or "hello" instead. I don't say "good morning" because I don't like morning.

Yes.

I will make sure never to say that, even jokingly, around you. You keep your erect antenna the hell away from me.

Except sometimes it really does happen in what seems out of the blue. We had a friend who was leading a double life and did it when he was found out. No one saw it

This is a good point. Something I've noticed a lot of lately. I'll always just ramble off how ya doing without thinking about it and a lot of time will get a hello or nod. First it irritated me, but then i realized it was just the spontaneous equivalent of hello.

That's an interesting perspective. It could be seen that way.

Why didn't he mention the fans not booing yesterday contributed to the win?

Good for Quinn.


Props.

I know, right? :D

Am I only one that thinks this isn't terribly profound or deep, and that it's just been reposted across the internet with (roughly) the same title because that's what people do?

The problem with his comment (IMO) is that "How are you doing?" is merely a greeting. It isn't an actual request for information on that person's wellbeing. If you want to actually know, you have to go a bit deeper than that.

There's a good reason people don't download all their personal shit onto people who ask "how ya doin mate?".

2 years on the bench, coupled with the other ups and downs of marriage and basically life can change a person during their mid-20's.

I've always liked BQ, coming out of college I wanted the Chiefs to trade back up to nab him after Bowe...he should've started the season opener, as far as I'm concerned.
