Your contribution today has been hilarious. It is nice to see that you can laugh at your own stupidity.

You do when that LT's contract is up and wants 10mil per. season.

Ad this was the guy we said was the best player in the entire draft. Does no one else see the farce here?

Te best player we thought available, got physically beaten and was te 3rd best tackle in our team.

Do you really think I'm saying that Fisher should have started ahead of Albert?

Largely does not mean always.

That is the opposite of a lack of forethought?

I'm not happy with the pick either but it's not like we took him over an Andrew Luck or Calvin Johnson. Last years draft simply sucked.

And this is where I'll bring up the QB topic. People argued forever that you can't take a QB at 1.1 and sit him for a year behind Alex Smith. But we probably should have benched our 1.1 LT because he was from a small school and wasn't ready.

ROFL

OF COURSE, we recognize it was a short-term solution from the very beginning.

That's the ENTIRE ARGUMENT the past 2 weeks.

Everything about last year was "short term".

Now all of the sudden this year, they're "building for the future" and we're supposed to be happy about it and trust them.

The circular logic here is hilarious.

EXACTLY!



Can't wait for them to flip back to "Win now" next year.

I know you love to ignore that fact so that you can keep beating this drum.
