Yeah, it's not like he didn't come up on almost every page of the "oh noes, we're sunk" threads.

LOL....I'll even go so far to as to guarantee it WON'T happen.

We have some great prognosticators to who just LOVE to pose "what if?" scenarios. Someone goes down or someone is going to become a free agent and .... BINGO, we have several posters trying to show their expertise and thus layout scenarios "x, y & z" and then go on to pontificate the strengths & weaknesses of each hypothesis.

And then...oh my God...then you get the people who think they're NFL scouts and will tell you about some sophmore from LSU who just transfered from San Diego State.....

You're right. This board would be better if everyone just shut up and kept their opinions to themselves.

No it isn't. In fact, I will guarantee it right now. I guarantee that there is absolutely no way that Tom Brady will be traded this offseason. I'll bet on it, if anyone cares to take me up on it. I'll even delete my account if I'm wrong. There's absolutely 0% chance of it happening.

Gee Whiz, why put your neck on the line like that?
While your at it, don't buy any funds with Madoff.
The thread was never about the chances of trading Brady.

I've never understood how the threads on the dumbest topics end up going the longest on this board. Please let this one end. Brady ain't being traded. Why not debate what you are going to do when you win Mega Millions tomorrow night? It is probably as likely to happen as Brady being traded. It might be more productive.

You, sir, have 10 posts in this thread. If everyone who thinks this is a ridiculous thread (say there are 25 and I'll assume I'm being very conservative) posts ten times, that's 250 posts right there. 25 pages saying a thread is stupid and wondering how they go on so long.

Probably because there are so many posts bashing the very existence of the thread and then others jump in with posts to justify it. Strip those out and this is probably a two-pager.

EXACTLY!!! Now you're getting it!

Of course, opinions are what this board is all about! We just don't need people attempting to pretend to be scouts and personnel directors.

10 posts? Unless other threads I have posted in have rolled into this thread, I have only posted 3-4 times in this thread.

Besides, this thread is getting dangerously close to 1,000 threads. So assuming that there are 250 posts pointing out how stupid the other posts are, there are still about 650 posts of stupidity. That is a lot of stupidity.
