Reasonable is not bashing the shit out of everything. Reasonable is this is not what I wanted but it was the best option at the time. We will have to move on again quickly from another QB definitely sucks but I prefer this to another year of Cassel ****ing everything up.

Reasonable does NOT mean accepting "best option at this time" or saying "I prefer this to another bad year." I will bash the shit out of the decision to trade for Alex Smith because they paid a huge price for limited upside. Sure, they'll be better in 2013 than they would have been if they'd acquired a cheaper (in terms of trade cost) option, but the difference is likely 5-6 wins vs. 7-9. BFD. Reasonable is saying you disagree and making an attempt to explain it.

Yeah, right. I'm still going to fight this for years to come that giving up the farm for Alex ****ing Smith was NOT the best option on the table. And unfortunately for the Chiefs, I've got a pretty strong feeling that I'm right on this one. |

I don't think they are. If they aren't, I don't mind the Alex Smith trade as much as long as we get a true franchise QB in the next 3 years (because it's probably not Alex Smith). It's possible Smith helps Reid build an offensive identity. I think Reid is going to tinker a bunch with some innovative offensive looks. This is one of those few times the scheme might justify the QB, as long as you don't hold on to the QB that long. |

So you admit that you are not reasonable then.
Reasonable is not an extreme. Reasonable is not that there is only one way. It wouldn't have mattered what this front office did short of drafting a QB that was not worthy of our 1st overall that would have made you or many others happy.
