Restating the obvious, Dorsey learned from Ted Thompson

[buddha]

Actually, if you'd stop talking out of both sides of your mouth, htismage, the whole discussion would be far less frustrating for everybody.

You want Alex Smith, but you don't want to give up two 2nds for him? It's a child's world where we get everything we want. That was the price...I'm sure the Chiefs tried to get him for less. All in all, it was a great investment, bordering on a "steal."

You don't even begin to understand what I'm saying. It has nothing at all to do with what I WANT.

Why don't you go ahead and show me then, big guy.

Instead of wasting time sending me neg reps (when you're not man enough to even have yours on ), spend some time pointing out the posts where I've contradicted myself.

I've consistently said that this has nothing to do with what I wanted.

Stop being such a ****ing pussy and prove it.

How dare anyone like the player but not be happy with what we had to give up for him.

So if we traded two 1st round picks for Jimmy Graham....you can only be happy with both or hate both? Because I'd love having Jimmy Graham but furious that we gave up two 1st round picks to get him.

Welcome to Chiefsplanet. If it's not black, it's white. Middle ground is not allowed. If you're going to throw out the bathwater, you HAVE to throw out the baby.

A really nice sports car costs $100K...you buy it, you drive it and you love it. You are really going to grudge about the price you paid for it? I wouldn't. Life's too short. The same goes for players. There's a price to get certain players. That's just a reality of doing business.

I can love the sports car and absolutely hate the $100k price tag. That's my ****ing right. I can like Alex Smith and hate the fact that they gave two 2nd round picks. Once again...IT'S MY ****ING RIGHT.

Fine...it's your right to feel how you feel. That wasn't my point. There's a price of doing business and if your team is going to have a better than average QB, it's going to take a premium to acquire that guy.

Personally, I don't think two 2nds is too high for a QB of Alex's ability.

That's fine....but other people do. They have a right to state their opinion just like people who love the trade do. It's not "talking out of both sides of their mouth".....it's stating their opinion and bitching about them only makes you look like an idiot.

We'll agree to disagree on that point.
