San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Don't know why everyone's jumping all over Scooby. He often provides solid takes and passes along tons of information and food for thought. As for this particular item, it is damn strange the whole "cursor discovery", is it not? It's like peaking behind the curtain a little bit. Hope Levi Jones gets signed by our heroes and thanks for passing it along Scoob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in Chicago Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Have to come to Skooby's defense here. I don't understand why people are hating on him (in this thread anyway). He pointed out something curious and that is it. Could be a typo but so be it. He did not say we signed him or claim any inside sources. If anything, it points to ESPN's stupidity than anything else.

SKOOBY Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 ESPN's stupidity than anything else. Which seems to be never ending, unless of course they praise our team(s). Then they are geniuses (Gump). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did say we signed him at first, and changed the title after being harassed. But it's more of a cumulative attack for endless meaningless posts before.

SKOOBY Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 He did say we signed him at first, and changed the title after being harassed. I was asked to change it and did very shortly after. I looked everywhere for confirmation and that was the only thing written that had said we signed him so I figured it was wrong (for now). It's amazing that many people wait to pounce on others here instead of finding their own thing to write about, it's like crimping somebody's style (which isn't cool).

You rightly changed it, although IMO there was zero reason to make that the title in the first place since you knew, 100%, without question, inarguably, that if it were true we signed Levi Jones there would be other stories about it all over the place. And you knew, 100%, without question, inarguably, if it were true that we signed Levi Jones, that is NOT how ESPN would announce it. So you were intentionally inciting people, like you have a dozen times before. Everyone has a right to attack that, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, just maybe what you feel is cause for torches is just your own little insecurity about something else. Ask yourself is what I am saying going to hurt someone else and decide if that's what is important to you, if the pain you attempt to inflict on others is better than making them happy, then a prescription might be in order (or you need to call your parents and thank them for F-in you up).

Well, either that, or I just feel a need and responsibility to thoroughly ridicule pointless, mindless, worthless, childish, pitiful threads, posts and posters.

Kelly the Dog Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 and hypocritical. I think a poster should know the meaning of a big five-syllable word before they use it, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he has talked down to people on this board in general as well. it is what it is. he has an annoying personality. he acts like he knows everything and he knows nothing. then to make his opinion look better, he says things like "see my picture? THat is me with our OC, in another stadium! That is how connected i am!" and "MY car is worth more than all your houses" stuff like this is going to piss people off eventually.....

scoring is not hardy Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Apparently, ESPN.com now considers the announcements of major free agent signings the equivalent of an Easter egg hunt and little six year old Skooby the retard wins the prize.

This may be true but the other side of it is that the punishment should fit the crime. Skooby takes a lot of crap here and really for what? He's a frequent target but he takes his licks generally with good nature and he can be pretty self-deprecating too. In face to face interactions people act a certain way because most people really don't want to get into fistfights. But once you get people in cars or on the telephone, or on a message board, then suddenly there's all this strutting and trash talking and name calling. We should all treat each other the way we would if we were together hanging around watching a Bills game at our favorite bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
