It's the end of the preseason. There's little else to discuss until we see a real game. Besides, in most of these threads that I've noticed, the OP is linking the article with very few comments. They're presenting information during a slow time, I don't have a problem with it.
This might fly in May. But there is plenty of football to discuss right now.
The "this one said THIS! or "that one said THAT!" stuff is just tired.
Listen...I’m as guilty as anyone of reposting stuff that may hit a nerve. But after a while it's just so pointless and repetitive that it brings down the quality of the forum (IMO).
I had to laugh when I read comments on another
By the way, I was just looking at threads and decided to start two new mega-threads just as you posted this. There's one for any media predictions of Sunday's game, another for any media predictions for the Pats' 2010 season. Hopefully that will help a little bit.
Would you rather the board get clogged with "Oh no we stink at *insert position*" threads instead? Or how about "Oh no! *insert player of the week* is injured!" threads? Or how about "We need to cut *insert current whipping boy* or else the team will stink" threads?
Nope. Nope. And Nope.
But at least those threads are made from the heart (ridiculous or not). When we repost venom from the windbags and talking heads, all we are doing is giving weight to their opinions...Opinions that are often drawn up with the sole intent of getting a rouse out of the fan base. reacting to every little thing they say, makes us come off as a bunch of whiney little *****es.

I wouldn't say they are from the heart...more like the knee
OMG!!!! Mogamedogz said the Pats suck/have issues/or are bad in anyway
Either way man... fans are like that. This is a Fan Forum and spending so much time picking apart what the media is saying about the team just gets old.
"Pats suck!" --BOO!
"Pats are awesome." --Yey!!
The way this board reacts to EVERY single little comment written/spoken/tweeted/facebooked/carrier pigeoned in about the team, just REEKS of insecurity IMO. Maybe that comes from years of sucking a heavy one... I dunno. Maybe it comes from fear of the best franchise years being behind us... I dunno. But I can't find another fanbase more sensitive to what the media says and does. They must eat it up.
Your simple solution to that is this- don't read the threads.
Ignore them. Don't read them. Don't click on them. Move on to the next thread that seems remotely interesting to you.
Mogamedogz is a d!!k anyway
LOL. This is exactly what I was talking about!
