Exactly. Like continuing to bring up Clausen.

That doesn't look like complaining to me, and neither do the posts immediately after - until the troll showed up.

Looks like people are just having a football conversation, followed by watching the troll make an ass of himself.

I don't know where you got bringing up Clausen in that definition, unless you feel personally slighted because of it.

Talking about a prospect we didn't take is maximum disruption?

ROFL

I only have to go 4 posts in.

**** it. You guys can continue to beat off over an average prospect and cry yourselves to sleep at night because our GM is so inept. It's pointless.

Again, why so are you offended when someone's opinion differs from yours?

Na, Hootie isn't guilty of that.


Well, uh.

.

The prosecution rests, Your Honor.

Like him or not, he fits those criteria to a T.

You must not remember how you, OtWP, Dane, Mecca, etc. all gave me so much shit leading up to the draft because I said there was no way we'd draft Clausen. Nobody knew at that point that we'd actually pass up on him twice. I was called a true fan, an idiot, whatever else. Point is, we didn't take him. I don't want to take it to the point of "I was right, you were wrong", but I did take a lot of shit for saying what ultimately happened.

Speaking the truth from past experience is inciting an argument?

People have spent all weekend claiming that is we passed, it's because Weis doesn't want him. The posts don't lie.

Keep trying.

if you're "sick of hearing" people talk about things that don't interest you....then don't read it....


see how easy that is?


no one forced to click on the thread or read the posts....

quite acting like a baby

You're taking this stuff way too personal. The way Hamas worded his post read like Weis gave his approval after they drafted him. I can see how it can be interpeted either way (that Mortensen reported it right afterward). I took it the other way.

That said, I'm not saying that it's bullshit that Mortenson reported it or even questioning that it happened. What I'm saying is bullshit is that the Clausen ball washers are trying to make more out of it than what it is. Especially by trying to say that it is evidence that Pioli doesn't listen to Weis. You have absolutely no proof of that.

Just because he told that to Fox doesn't mean he advocated that we take Clausen at five, or even at 36. You are not privvy to those conversations. As I said, this report is in no way an indication of the Pioli/Haley/Weis dynamic. To suggest so is utter bullshit, IMHO.

My argument all along has been that Weis' feelings had absolutely no bearing in how we drafted. Pioli would draft who he wanted. That seems to be the case.

I'd like to you link the post in question. You've made a claim, now back it up.

I don't recall ANYONE expecting us to take Clausen. My guess is that you were given shit for dismissing either the possibility of drafting him, or attempting to claim he's a shitty prospect.

I'll wait for those posts, with links to the threads they came from, so we can establish context.

Didn't you also say that we were going to take an OT at #5?
