Quote:I didn't call you personally an insult to simple logic. Let me type slower so that you can understand. Your position is an insult to simple logic, not necessarily you. I don't know you. I have never met you. I likely will never meet you. That said, I don't expect you to understand that confusing winning with losing may give off mixed signals. So, if that hurts your feelings, sorry, but when you play the "yes means no and no means yes game" with people, don't be surprised if you get the same confusion as you are getting from me. You can rationalize your thought process as much as you wish, but you have blurred the lines. That is indisputable.

 

Now, if you're not of the 1 or bust mindset, then what is the problem? Last I checked, Ricky Williams was had by the team that wanted him. If a team TRULY wants a player, they can get that player, so don't say that today crushed those hopes. How did that trade work out for New Orleans? Now ask yourself this: if New Orleans had the first overall pick, would they have taken Williams? Would it have changed what happened?

 

Again, you're putting your predisposed notion of what one player is, all things considered. You have said as much by saying we handed the Texans their QB of the next decade. You have taken the position that you already have this already worked out, and have identified it through your posts. This, months ahead of the draft.

 

Now, on to me. I said I was happy with 3-4 wins but would be happier with 19. That is a solid, unwavering position. I don't need to tell others that winning is losing, and losing is winning. I am happy with any win, and upset with any loss.

 

You and those like you who want to jockey for some perceived prize CAN NOT say that. You have relinquished your right to do so. It's really that simple. You cannot be trusted any longer with the meaning of winning and losing because you and those like you have destroyed the meaning to those who read your words.

 

You said, and I quote..

I bolded for emphasis. 

 

And no, if a team truly wants a player, they can't get them.  Team's aren't always willing to trade.  If the Texans get the #1 pick, I highly doubt we'd be able to trade up to get that pick.  In fact if they were to trade it away, they'd likely trade it to another team for less rather than trade it to us.  Unless they thought whoever we selected wouldn't be very good. (Which would be a warning sign)

 

Let me type s l o w e r  f o r  y o u  a s  w e l l.  I never said we've handed the Texans their franchise QB.  I said... and again I quote:

Quote: 

Great win, but... let's just hope we didn't just give the Texans their QB of the future.

 

Again, I have put it in bold the important part here.

 

The 'perceived prize' isn't Bridgewater, or some player.  It's the 1st pick.  With which Caldwell can then do with what he wants.  The prize is opportunity.  Which this team needs.  It's something this team has lacked for a long time.
