Quote:If a guy is upset about the team and is voicing his opinion, why is it wrong? Why does he get ganged up on and insulted? Why is he called an idiot or moron for thinking differently? Why is it wrong to have a personal opinion on the team? The guy puts money into this team and wants to see a better product on the field. Losing for almost a decade gets to people eventually, and you can't be nice and positive anymore. 

it's not the opinion its the approach. its the chicken little sky is falling 20 threads about the same thing BS.

 

No one wants to hear that nonsense. Its adds nothing of substance to conversation.

 

Its trolling dude. You get called a moron when you say something moronic. You get called an idiot when your lack of knowledge on a certain subject is only shadowed by your absolute idiot approach to voicing your opinion.

 

You don't like Gus. We get it. A lot of people don't like his positive vibe.

Why post 100 times about it? What will that prove or do? Nothing. You just want the argument.

 

And when people say "hey our QB improved, here and here" immediately you whiners go "but his stat here isn't enough" 

Maybe if the doofus head coach was better than 8-28, the apologists would have a point. This team is a dumpster fire but whatever, have fun defending it.

Quote:Sosa, would you categorize the Apologists as Football Chicks?

 

what I'm saying is this: the ones who go "yay team" regardless?

Yep, Bortles throws a pick six and they're like: " Oh! Did you see how fast he threw it! Look at that zip! Improvement! YAY TEAM!!!!!!!! "

see... HYPERBOLE at it's finest.

 

No one does that. In fact, EVERYONE was pissed off Bortles did that. Many thought he was regressing. Yet.... 2 out of 4 games this season, 0 turnovers.

 

care to lie about anything else?

Voice of reason has spoken. Thank you.

No one is defending that the team sucks.  No one.  Sorry for your comprehension issues. 

 

What is being said is that there are postives.  Negatives too, absolutely, but some don't feel like wallowing in mysery over a team we follow for fun.  If it makes you so negative and angry, why watch it?  My real feeling is there are a lot of really young posters on here who are very emotionally immature.

Sosa, looks like you got the Apologists in a tizzy, homey

 

They're flailing around in this thread now

So, you just make stuff up and throw it on the internet?  Wow.

My friend, you are missing the entire argument here.  I know it's because you want to argue, so carry on.

 

The team sucks, everyone knows that.  What else do you want?  No one is saying they are good.  Why you whiners carry on and destroy this board is beyond me.  Homey.

Ah, the internet. Its a great place, isn't it?

For you, it sure seems so.

I'm not arguing with anyone. I'm just a supreme realist of all things Jaguars

 

I'm the good guy - the apologists are the bad guys

I'm not miserable lol. Yea it is frustrating with the Jags lose, but posting offhand jokes about cornball Gus and the bumbling Jags is fun and entertaining. If you don't like what somebody is posting, then don't read it. It's not that serious, no need to be a message board warrior and convince naysayers that they should be more positive.


I'm sure when this team is good again, actual football discussion can be had. But we are so bad, there is not much to discuss but the negative.

You know, i'm starting to see the issue here. You guys don't understand sarcasm, humor, or just plain joking around. 

Can we get a list of the Apologists AKA the Message Board Warriors?

Please, stop with the verbal abuse. I didn't put on my insult repellent today...

This is actually the root cause. My guess is probably not guys you would like to have a beer with at the tailgate.

You have the right feeling.

They're the ones that get ticked off when you stand up and cheer on 3rd down. They remain seated unlike everyone else around them and grumble quietly.
