It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Joker I said I put Halapio on the roster, I never said I didn't I did it based on Reiss calling him a sure fire lock and the fact we had cut 1 draft pick in the last 2 drafts. I did not lie about ****, I just think you are a troll who is desperate for attention but you cannot be a real man and reply to a PM because you do not have an audience to show off for. That is pathetic and I think it is funny to point out.that took me a minute to search. YOU are trying to move the goal posts again as you always do when you're caught in a web of lies.
No I just do not like you Joker. I think you run your mouth on the internet like a punk and I have no respect for that or desire to talk to someone who does.you really do get all hissy fit and enraged when someone calls you on your lies. I'll just give MG your posts from July and August that PROVE he is telling the truth and you ,as usual , are lying . See ya' around Sybil6.
I like the Sybil6 name I might ask Ian to change my name.I'm not accusing you of anything, Sybil6...I am merely providing the posts YOU made that YOU said YOU didn't make. MG can do what he wants with the information. YOU are too crazy to understand simple facts.
http://www.patsfans.com/new-england...?q=Hilapio&o=date&c[node]=10&c[user][0]=32717Please show me these posts, because I do not recall ever saying anything of that nature. I said in the draft thread on the day he was drafted that he would not even make the roster, Reiss had him as a sure fire lock so I shift my opinion to incorporate that based on what I thought was creditable information. I never said anything about him being better than anyone is.
It takes less than a minute to use the search function, as you well know. Of all people, you are a strange one to suggest that others have better things to do than respond to posts.Man you must have some free time. Should I expect that you will also be manning up and responding to one of the PMs tonight also? I'm just wondering because if you can do this for public consumption when it had nothing to do with you I have to assume you aren't just desperate for attention and are you going to respond in private as well.
I'm not sure why you ever interact with me in a thread because every time I will announce that you are just seeking attention and do not have the fortitude to even respond to a PM. So keep quoting me or inserting yourself into my discussions, I like outing you it makes me laugh, that must be why they call you Joker.
As I said., I chose walterfootball to check.Every board I saw had him a PFA with a high of seventh round.

The same thing was true for Stork.

Yes, Jones and Hightower were drafted to start, and they played lots during their rookie years, as one expects from 1st and 2nd round defensive linemen. Dennard was a great find. He played because he played well. If he had stopped playing well (in the eye's of the coach), he would have been benched.I am not a big fan of Stork personally, I could be wrong about him, hell I hope I am but I think he lacks the athleticism to do what we expect are center to do.
Wendell is a problem, Connolly would be the best at center right now in my opinion, but honestly I am all for taking the approach they took with Jones, Hightower, and Dennard in 2012 and just letting Fleming and Stork play through it and hope they are solid by the playoffs.
If you read the posts, I said to you that I included Halapio on the roster based on Reiss calling him a sure fire lock and the lack of draft picks cut over the past 2 seasons. That is very different from me saying he was a good player, I thought he was showing promise in OTAs and I said some optimistic things about him but if you go back to the draft, I was very clear in my opinion of Halapio and Stork. Have a look:http://www.patsfans.com/new-england...?q=Hilapio&o=date&c[node]=10&c[user][0]=32717
Look, it's not a big deal. As I said, many of us thought that Hilapio would make the team, and was a good longshot prospect for 2015. Most of us did not have him on our rosters by mid-August, some still did.
I would recommend a different site.As I said., I chose walterfootball to check.
80% of my posts are responding to posters who quoted my posts, I actually never go around inserting myself into others debates and I do not troll posters for sport. If my posts were not so often quoted I would not post as often, however it strikes me as rude not to respond to someone who quoted my posts. Feel free to review my posts for accuracy; I seldom quote a poster first, only if they start a thread I may offer my opinion on the topic.It takes less than a minute to use the search function, as you well know. Of all people, you are a strange one to suggest that others have better things to do than respond to posts.
OK, at your suggestion, I have reconsidered the picture. Three weeks ago, many thought that we had the best roster since 2007. We have played one game, and played poorly for one half of that game. So, the evidence is in; we sucked for an entire half. Next week is another game.
I see no reason for projecting stats from one game, as if all the games will be like Game 1 for us or for any team.
I think Fleming is still a bit too raw to play guard in a starting fashion right now. I'd like to see Solder-Cannon-Stork-Connolly-Vollmer. That puts the best comination of size, core strength, athleticism, and experience on the field. An interior OL of Cannon, Stork, and Connolly should be able to seal off the A and B gaps to give Brady a clean pocket.
You sound ridiculous with the assertion that anyone that expresses a concern or a reservation about something on the Patriots is Belichick hater, or Kraft critic. That is a conspiracy theory and a poor one at that. If the Patriots had no flaws, as you like to suggest they would have won 13 Super Bowls in the last 13 years if not for injuries, so do you really believe that injuries are the reason Brady does not have 13 rings? Belichick makes mistakes, and acknowledging them does not make you a bad fan, actually caring so little about something that you do not even care about the things that are detrimental to it and choose to ignore them is far more problematic for something than acknowledging something and moving forward.Rationality! Isn't it wonderful when a smidgeon of it rears its head?
Meanwhile the usual idiots are losing their heads. The World is ending. We're all Doomed! Doomed I'm tellin' Ya.
Win a game and the idiots and frustrated Draftniks, self-styled would be GM geniuses, BB haters, and Kraft Critics, will once again retreat to under their rocks.

2014 NFL Draft, Day 3: Rounds 4 - 7 thread
I did not like the Halapio pick, I did not start watching the draft expecting to like every pick we made so it really is not any skin off my back, I am just giving my opinion that Halapio was the worst pick we have made so far.

Pats backroom let down Brady AGAIN
I do not have a major problem with the strategy to improve the offensive line; my reservations are with the players selected and when.
• Bryan Stork – we should have drafted Marcus Martin or Travis Swanson instead, Stork had a very poor pro day, and #105 was very early for him in my opinion.
• Jon Halapio – easily the worst pick we made yesterday, I will actually be surprised if he makes the roster, he is slow footed, has poor technique, and major durability concerns.
• Fleming – I like this pick, I thought it was a good value and a player that has upside and can help in multiple positions.
This was not a very good draft in my opinion, I am a homer and I am going to focus on the good which is Easley, Fleming, and Moore but I do think this draft was a disappointment, and if you disagree that is fine but we will all have to wait to find out whose position is most accurate.

Now I don't always agree with Joker on every issue. However, I have come learn that Joker means well and is a joy to have on the board. I think he's a sweetheart overall.Who doesn't like Joker? He's like Seinfeld. How can anyone not like him? He's a wonderful, wonderful boy. Everybody likes Joker. It's impossible not to like him. Impossible.
