Draft Grades from Gosselin - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

zippo59 · 05-03-2006, 12:18 AM

This entire draft grading idea is ludicrous, especially right after the draft. There are just so many things the graders don't know about the teams and the players, like what specifically drew the team to the player, how the player fits into the team's system, and what the team's intentions are for a certain player. Not to mention that some teams draft more based on need and some on value, and the grade also depends on which method the grader values more, It's like a blind person judging a beauty contest.

It took me a few months, but I finally found the famous parking lot you mention so often! Yippee.

Case in point. Some kind of hazing for forum newcomers I guess. (even newcomers with 800 posts)

This is of topic but I don't think I should start another thread for it. I was on a Colts board to see what the fans thought of their draft and I stumbled across this little gem:

Oh hell. You can't depend on Kiper. He puts sh1t in his hair to keep it straight. Those folks on espn and others like them just piss me flat off. The Colts will never get any respect from them. The Colts will win a SB but espn will not give the team any respect. They will always be *** kissers to the pats.

These Colts fans never cease to amaze me with their stupidity.

From reading the grades that different pundits gave the Pats, it's safe to say that the Pats draft was terrible, mediocre, or excellent. My own feeling is that the Pats draft was a big surprise that confounded nearly everyone.

That guy is so far out of touch with reality that electric shock treatment would only make him think that his Colts actually won a meaningful playoff game.

Ernie Adams and Bill have shared a Vulcan Mind Meld since their academy days, he's a confidante of Bill's in the mode of (deep voice-over)"Only the Shadow Knows" variety, with a similar passion and knowledge of the game of football.

The Parking lot, located as arrellbee describes, is an eye-candy site that has nothing to do with football, a parking lot, or even tail-gating...on second thought, scratch that last one!!!

enjoyed by many of our manly members!
I'm still waiting for a "Thunder from Down Under" site for us gals!!!!!

Ernie Adams is the Parking Lot Attendant. He's been there ever since the Stadium opened in 2002! Slip him a twenty, and he'll give you a good spot. It's all very hush-hush.
