BS! Crawl back to your hole, TROLL!

Hah!

Look, most on this board don't trifle with all-time lists. It's irrelevant simply because our team is still involved in making history. But you can try and have your fun . . .
The IP Addresses are different.

IMO, this Jets fan has actually been kinda good and not too trollish (especially after he deleted the 1/2 page sized pic in his sig yesterday of the steroided up Thomas Jones). And WHY would he publish this ranking when the Jets are listed at #23 in it? So the accusation, in this case seems, improbable.

Frankly, the Pats being at #9 all-time makes sense. If the ranking is based on the past 10 years, you'd have to say #1, but it isn't. As a kid growing up in the early 70's and never EVER getting to see the Pats on TV , or even being discussed seriously, the fact that HISTORICALLY they are ranked #9 is amazing. I hope they climb

Da Bears at #5, however, is a joke.

They had 2 good decades - - the 30's and the 80's. The rest, until last year, was dreck.

Right, but that's easily overcome. I've got a couple different IP addresses, two PCs 3 feet from one another with two different ISPs.

Thanks, I'll take your word for it. Some of his other posts appear to be typical troll fodder. I'm not sure what the attraction is with some of these posters, however. Either they want to discuss football, which is fine and we've had many good posters from other teams, or chafe. He appears to want to chafe much of the time. So be it . . .

No... in NEM's world Earnie Zampese ranks in the lowest level of Dante's Inferno...

Guys, this thread is losing focus! We don't care about Jets fans posting here. Last time I checked the Jets were not even in the top 20. But the Patriots are still #9 and that's what matters.

I didnt post this thread, I commented on it. See the guy above me, that is my supposed alter ego? lol. Do what you gotta do track my ip address if you need to. Some of you guys are so idiotic when you see one Jets fans posting who says nothing offensive or anything troll worthy you automatically shut him down b/c he does'nt root for the same team as you. W/e good luck on the year see you opening day. I don't need to talk trash to validate how I feel about my team.
