Rob's House

I think what he's trying to say is two fold: 1. Anyone who's not on EJ's nuts like me is a racist (probably pronounced with a lisp). 2. I'm white, but I'm one of the good ones.

You're just digging a deeper hole. You should quit now while you only look ignorant, obtuse, and ironically racist.

That's your evidence? No offense, but that's about the flimsiest argument that I've seen to support a premise in quite some time. The only thing interesting about your post is that you apparently were trying to tell us something about the anti-EJ crowd, but instead you unintentionally told us so much more about yourself.

But those guys actually did suck. Anyone who's been tea-bagged by EJ knows he's so awesome that the only reason anyone could criticize him is racism.

How can you tell what color they are? And what are you getting at?

As far as playing Orton, I don't think we're there yet. He's still been on the team barely a month, and before today EJ's been ok. Although, a couple repeats of today's performance and I'll be singing a different tune.

I voted for Manwel b/c I wouldn't pull a young QBover 1 bad game, but I'd have him on a short leash. The next really good game EJ has will be his first.

I mean, he's really still a rookie, isn't he.

I think that was a jab at the "EJ is still a rookie" crowd.

Funny thing about the Brady perception. He wasn't widely viewed as a top QB when he was winning SBs. It wasn't until he started putting up gaudy stats (and stopped winning SBs) that he started to get brought up in the best QB conversation.

Sounds like bull ****. I contend he's living in an old folks home in southern Chile.

Oh say can you see... I never took you for a sublime fan.

At the risk of being labelled an idiot by our resident quality control poster I'll ask, was the body ever recovered? I can't recall, but I thought not.

Reminds me of a troll who all too briefly graced us with his presence. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/130718-its-your-duty/page__st__60#entry2181784 (Reference at the top of the page)

I'd kill myself for you, I'd kill you for myself Or on a slightly less morbid note: Some people like to make life a little tougher than it is.

Apparently he's been getting into a Twitter war with Bills fans It's getting heated.

Precisely why I was surprised to see you advancing the "EJ's still a rookie" bit.

That's not true. Tom values your opinion and respects you as a person.

I never knew the power of a song, til I heard the music playin', the day mama passed on

I hope it's nothing serious and he's back on the field a week from Sunday.

You Idiot :lol:

Thanks man. I appreciate that.

Perhaps not. What I'm saying is for me and many others it's not about these guys and what they deserve, but rather it's about a disturbing trend in our culture where we form what are essentially mobs via social media, and seek to destroy the person who has offended our sensibilities. The problem is that mobs are typically not terribly rational. Part of the reason we settled on a republican form of government with electoral terms was to have a government that represented the will of the governed but was somewhat insulated from the fleeting passions of the masses. Technology has created a situation where we can effectively destroy the livelihood of someone without any of the protections that the criminal justice system provides. If you look at the bigger picture it's reason for everyone to fear. You may think it doesn't matter to you because you don't beat your wife, but it's bigger than that. Imagine if you were falsely accused, or did something justifiable under the circumstances that looks awful out of context. Or take it another step further. Everyone has said or done something that if known to the public would enrage a big enough segment of the population sufficiently to put you in the crosshairs if you have any kind of high profile, or even not so high profile position. As a society we should be responsible enough to refrain from joining the mob and let the justice system do it's job. If you don't like the way it works your issue should be with the state rather than imposing your will through extortion like methods on non-culpable private parties to exact your vengeance merely because they have the ability (but not obligation) to do so.

I've written volumes on the subject this week in threads you've been posting in. Do you really need me to break it down for you again or are you just being obtuse? Seriously, I'll break it down if you really don't get what I'm saying here.

How you extrapolated that from my response is mind blowing. I don't normally tell people how to live, but maybe you should put the bong down.
