  1. He didn't point that out. He conjured up some ridiculous statement as a bastardization of an argument. He twisted someone else's words into an indefensible position. It's dishonest arguing. As an aside, it's also very petulant sounding. Can't you easily imagine a child saying the same phrase? This line is hilarious though. Today’s news was a little tough for fans like you who have this false narrative cemented in your heads that Manuel is garbage. Misplaced righteous indignation is always comical. Huh? Why? Besides conflating arguments in order to shield EJ. Here's a simple truth. Bad coaches can make correct decisions.
  2. This is the most important part. At this point, it's our mess. Because if we permanently leave the Middle East, no one will die. Except all those people dying on the mountains and in the cities that fall to terrorist regimes one by one. What you're really saying is that you don't care about their "human lives."
  3. Everyone else. The entire planet.
  4. Exhibit #320000001 of dishonest arguing.
  5. He finally made a business decision as bad as his shooting decisions. That wasn't my question.
  6. Ryan Tannehill showed more promise his first two years. He was also drafted higher. As the third QB.
  7. Does the lack of dominant big men have a greater effect on a jump shooter or a lane driver?
  8. Obviously, they've only been running QB draws today.
  9. What Finals loss was on Jordan?
  10. The thing about "waiting" is that the Knicks did a similar thing back in 2007 for Lebron. And they ended up with Amar'e. Not that the Pelicans have the same level as talent as the Knicks did, but you can get screwed. I got Durant staying in OKC or going to the Wizards. I don't see him in NO. Lebron is the only guy who gets praised for making his cast better, and the excuse that his cast sucks. Also, the Dallas loss team was the same as the 1st Heat Chip. Wade is a HoFer. MJ>LBJ.
  11. Pelican's need scoring though. Davis is great, but he can't be the post presence on offense and defense, and drop 30 every night. With Love, I'd say the Pelicans get at least to the second round.
  12. "I'd like to call a witness to the stand; a cheeky fellow named Gugly."
  13. KLove is as good as gone though.
  14. Bravo.
  15. This hack has put my boss in the fecal position.
  16. Jordan is better bro. The dream is dead.
  17. A) Agreed. I never thought EJ was the only problem with the offense, only that he IS a problem Two agreements back to back? I must be getting soft. B) Exactly! All those guys suck. Why wouldn't you be conservative with that crew at QB with a good defense? D) It's speculation that EJ's inaccuracy is direct evidence of his inaccuracy? Could it be because he's scared? Maybe. But he's inaccurate, period. The root cause is speculation, outside of his sloppy mechanics. The conflation comes with the assumption that all of EJ's problems stem from inaggressiveness/fear. My contention is speculation, but his accuracy is not. E) Our coach trying to win every game in the season by being conservative is a negative? Winning 9 games, through whatever method, is a bad thing? Outside of that, I can see that EJ playing a little in week 17 had some merit. Some posters I respect were against it, hoping for a clean slate for 2015. Regardless of Marrone's reasons in week 17, his reasons for week 5 had a ton of merit. And weeks 5-16. Orton wasn't good, he was conservative. What else was he gonna do when we were mathemtically alive? Pretend Orton was Brady like Chan did with Fitz and line up 5 wide on 4th and inches? So, let's say he was inaccurate in 2014, and knew the plays in 2014. Okay. It's a real gas.
  18. He's only got one year left on his current deal. Cap blows up after 2016. Opting out would mean leaving CLE.
  19. A) Lion's share, yes. He's the QB, and he wasn't great. Who do you blame? Freddy? Stevie? Woods? B) Right. Are any of those QB's talented? Would you be confident with Thad Lewis? Saying that Marrone had the same confidence level with 3 other QB's who suck AND EJ is not a good sign for EJ. D) See, here's the thing. Whether EJ is playing conservatively or aggressively, he needs to be accurate. When he's checking down to Freddy, and throws it 2 feet off target so Fred can't catch it in stride, it isn't a matter of aggressiveness. It's a matter of ability. Many conflate these two. Many just want to se EJ "let loose." I highly suspect EJ "letting loose" will more closely resemble the Tampa game or Steelers game, instead of the Jets games. He has confidence issues, but that's not his only one. Marrone was not as conservative in 2013 as he was in 2014. And he had Tuel and freaking Thad Lewis under center in 2013. Why is that?
  20. She was pregnant, it was a double.
  21. It would be so funny if he did, and went to the Hawks or Wizards. Just total mercenary style.
  22. Can't Lebron opt out?
  23. Side note, does Iggy deserve Finals MVP with that FT percentage? Woof.
  24. Stolen from Twitter: If only JR Smith had some help from the rest of his team.
  25. 30 points on 31 shots is not impressive. At all.
