Logic is obviously not your strong point. Defending the reasonableness of the "Not Sanchez" crowd requires me to point out why/how they're being reasonable. It doesn't require me to blow Sanchez.

Are you truly this stupid, or is it just an act? Leonard Davis didn't become a great tackle, but he's become a Pro Bowl guard. If Sanchez fails at QB, will he become a great running back? That you use a player who's become a Pro Bowl caliber guy as an example of a bust makes me question whether you actually do have any football knowledge at all. I may have insulted my dog with that earlier comparison.

But hey, in the last week I've heard that Stafford is dumb, me-first, arrogant, aloof from his teammates, and not a leader. Yet scouts gush that he has great intangibles with a high football IQ and is a leader.

Feel free to go back and look at my posts. I've never talked about Stafford regarding any of this stuff. Hell, I don't recall saying much about him other than noting his accuracy problems.

The rapist stuff is idiotic. The racial stuff is idiotic. The question about what hiring his brother demonstrates is valid, but because it goes to decision making, not because of arrogance or any of that nonsense. I've never commented on any selfishness (unless you want to call coming out before his coach thinks he's ready selfish), and Booty beat him out so that's a perfectly valid opinion for someone to have put forth.

The irony being that you don't require any standard of proof for arguments in the other direction.
