ajzepp Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Too many people are guilty of this and it's really getting to be out of hand.... Why is that so many people on here cannot just observe and accept something for what it is instead of having to make some grand conclusion that goes WAY above and beyond what actually happened? It can't be that matt Leinart has had a couple of good games against a couple of relatively good teams....no, sir! It has to be that he's GREAT and is already headed to the HOF. Bills beat up Miami and have a strong showing agaisnt the Pats? SUPERBOWL, BABY! Lose to Detroit a few weeks later? Hell, how many years was it some of you said we're screwed for now? 2? 3? 5? Believe it or not, sometimes things are nothing more than what they actually seem to be. It's asinine to keep changing your three-to-five year outlook on the Bills, or any other aspect of what's goign on in the NFL, on a game to game basis. Just say 'no' to tardism.

What's more, you are ten times better than JDG or JSP or any other J that you care to mention. The other J's don't deserve to carry your jock!.

Matt in KC Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Tarditious? Is that a Doctor Who reference? (Claims that are bigger on the inside than the outside??) By the way, I agree with your post, and the Canonization / Demonization of players based on the most recent week's performance is probably my biggest TSW pet peeve.

Until you have sufficient evidence of something, you run the risk of thrwing the baby out with the bath water. Even with just the Leinart/JP thing....can anyone really not understand that Leinart was one of the most NFL-prepared QBs to come out of college EVER? Clearly JP was MUCH more raw, and it takes time to coax that "upside" out of players like that. I understand being frustrated, and I know exactly how everyone on here feels when we lose a game such as we did against Detroit. But one game does not a season make, and although it's entertaining at times, it just gets ridiculously old when you have people talking about how this loss means that Jauron is a bust, Ralph is cheap, Marv is senile, and we're going to be rebuilding for the next five years The term in psychology is "catastrophizing", but I wanted to come up with my own term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now we have this influx of all these people who do this week after week, and it's damn near maddening!
