Gus Lays To Rest Any Thought Of QB Controversy

Quote:But why draft Bortles #3 if you thought henne was the answer this season?
 

Because the world does not end at the end of this season. There will be more seasons, and this team will be expecting to be coming out of the rebuilding process as we enter those seasons. If Henne is an acceptable answer for this season, but not for the long term when the team should be getting ready to make serious playoff runs then it makes sense to draft a quarterback now who will take a year to get into starting form, but once he is will be able to lead those playoff runs.

 

Quote:"I" is singular is it not?
 
Yes. But using it doesn't imply in any way that you're the only one. If I say "I like pizza," that doesn't suggest that nobody else on the face of the planet likes it.


TMD was pretty clear in what he said. He took that position. A number of people vociferously disagreed with him. And he's right. Some of them probably disagreed with him because he's TMD (he could post claiming that water is wet and you'd find some people willing to argue the case), but a lot of them disagreed with him because they felt a first round pick should start and make a difference from year one. They're wrong, but a lot of people do hold that opinion and make it known, both now and then.
 
Quote:Yep. We get it. You hate Henne. You have already penciled him in to fail. Your posts infer that you are wishing for it.

 

You've said the same thing a dozen different ways. We all understand by this point that you hate Henne.
 

Since we're concerned about the dumbing down of language:
