Sunday’s NFL Games (week 4)


All I ever said about Sherman was that I am not a fan of him and that he needs therapy. Other than that I haven't called him anything or wished negative on him. Also I don't root against the seahawks unless they are playing my favorite teams. I could care less if Sherman is on that team.

You can even did up my posts on Sherman if you like.
How is needing therapy any different from calling a player a douche? Come on, you are mad because you are a 49ers fan and a Kaepernick fan, if this was not about him you would not have even posted in this thread.

I tried to take the high road with you even after you lied to Ian and tried to flip you behavior onto me, I reached out and apologized attempted to get straight with you. You ignored me, and that just showed me what you are about, you hate anyone who does not like the things you like so much so you cannot even piece together the courtesy of a response. For that reason seeing you suggest other people are childish because they thing Kaepernick is a douche is just plain hypercritical. Now I am putting you back on my ignore list, because I am not going to waste my time talking about Kaepernick, you should try a 49ers forum if you want to be surrounded by people who love Colin just like you. This is the New England Patriots fan site, just an FYI.
 
It's Tebow not Tblow. Your hate is astounding and well noted though.

I am not trying to squirm out of anything. I am still here. I didn't do anything wrong. I treat other members with respect. It's something you could learn.

Go ahead and call me all the names you like it says alot more about you than it does me.

Why haven't you put me and those who like Tebow on ignore?


I don't follow your postings I just see them all over the main forum becuase you post in alot of threads and make alot of posts. Remeber you quoted me first as I don't usually quote you even though I disagree with alot of what you have to say.
CC, I'm hoping you take what I'm about to post in the spirit in which it's intended. I was raised in the typical Roman Catholic family in the 50s/60s. Mass most days, altar boy through the end of high school, Catholic all boys' high school and college, as well. I'm a shadow of what I was growing up in the religion department, but I try as hard as I can to be respectful of those who are religious, whether Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Buddhist, etc. With that said, I really believe most people here don't care one bit about the religious persuasion of our players. We want good players, regardless of what their religious beliefs are. I think we also want good guys, which doesn't always mean those good guys are religious. I don't know you, but you strike me as one of those good guys, who just happens to be religious. Anyway, thanks for tolerating my rant and I would just ask that you continue to tolerate those of us who don't share your fervor.
 
Deus Irae,

It depends on why you are following sports. Of course, I would agree objectivity is absolutely essential if I were gambling heavily on the outcome. But I purposely don't gamble. This is relaxation and only escapist entertainment, for me, relief when my profession demands constant objective reality, otherwise.

For others such as yourself, objective realism in this activity is more important, and it is what it is now; and not what it will or may be. tomorrow.

The Patriots may not be the '85 Bears, who won for only 18 months with very good talent, and a gimmick overload defense; but they are not the 2008 Lions, either.

After planning and drafting to do so, Belichick consciously tore apart, and is in the midst of rebuilding the Offensive line. He is doing it to overcome the size, talent and age limitations that became apparent, largely only, against teams with good lines in the penultimate games.

I have seen him do that for all of the other squads in turn, the LBs, the CBs etc. and it hurts the team while undergoing the transformation early in the long season. But he judged those changes necessary, and history has proved him largely correct.

Accepting the Mankins trade opportunity, revamping further than planned, may just have been a "Bridge too Far" in 2014. We shall see, and that makes it fun and interesting for me.

It is also a great intellectual and instructive exercise to watch a Maestro at his work. I believe I can see what he aims to accomplish, and can anticipate what the team will be like when done. So I can ignore the blood and surgical pain.

I believe BB is building a dominant team, greater than any he has fielded to date. It may not be ready yet, it is almost complete. But I think the Team he is constructing will become and remain dominant for the balance of the 'teens.

With the defense now very good, young and reconstructed, one more draft for D and O linemen and a LB is all that remains to do, other than replacing unanticipated career terminations and retaining key players, et cetera.

How Maestro Belichick has manipulated the CAP for today, and juggled it for tomorrow, is also fascinating exercise to follow in itself. It is reassuring that he can keep the planned, coming, construct together, too .

I responded to your first post because of what you wrote:

Being a sports Fan, is not an exercise in objectivity, unless your playing Fantasy football..

That's a silly response, to put it mildly. I am a fan of the team, I don't do Fantasy football, and I almost never gamble on games, even with office pools and the like. Many people are fans of the team, while managing to avoid being blind homers, and retaining a desire/ability to achieve some fair level of objectivity about the team they are following.
 
I'm going to say it now (actually I said it in my predictions thread I did in July), the revolving door of NFC South winners will continue (a different winner every year) and the Falcons win the NFC South this year. I don't think either the Saints or Panthers are all that good this year. Not that Atlanta is either.
 
I know when I come to the board to trash Colin and make thousand of negative posts against Amendola. I know that there is no bias against them by that poster.
CC I have more football knowledge in one finger than you have in entirety, so please do not talk about what I post compared to what you post, it will end in nothing more than embarrassment for you. Do yourself a favor and quit now, because leaning on Amendola is really getting old fast, you use that sorry line every time because that is all you have, a weak pathetic attempt to save face. Here go to this site - http://www.49erswebzone.com/forum/

I am reminded again why I am a dog person…:cool:
 
Crazy thing is is Tampa isn't even out of it yet in this suddenly crap division.
 
Falcons don't look to hot either
 
Falcons don't look to hot either

I think the NFC South sucks in general, but they are the best of a mediocre bunch. The Saints barely beat the Vikes at home before Bridgewater took over. Or at least until he didn't start and play most of the game.
 
I hate the guys attitude but I have to say Philip Rivers is the clear NFL MVP through the first 4 weeks.

Really?

Andrew Luck is the clear cut top ranked fantasy QB in our league, although I have Rivers as well and have started them both. I just have a hard time imagining anyone beating out Andrew Luck at this point, who has better stats. Both teams are 3-1. If DAL goes to 3-1, a case can be made for Demarco Murray, who still led the league in rushing despite not even having played tonight's game yet....that says a lot about how dominating his rushing performances have been so far.

As far as Rivers' "attitude," I'm not sure what you mean? He's a devout christian and father of like, 7--whose teammates claim has never even cursed before. He plays with some fire, but I don't think he has a bad attitude.

You're wasting your time with that one.
 
Ouch Claiborne

You don't even know me .

So how do you have more football knowledge in one finger than me? Just because I don't have over 10,000 posts. A majority of which is you brady 6 arguing with other posters. You don't know what I know or don't know. You don't even know me. Remember Brady 6 you starting quoting me and making remarks about me in this thread. I wasn't even conversing with you before that. I have more football knowledge than you think.

I never lied to ian. I told ian the truth about you as you pmed me calling me names. As far as ignoring you. This thread is good reason why I was right all along in ignoring you. I have been ignoring you before you started in on me in this thread. Lets just hope that you can ignore me back.

Dolphins 38 Raiders 14. A little disconcerting seeing that score for obvious reasons...
 
Rivers couple years back had an attitude problem but, in recent years he seems to have grown up. I thought Rivers was done going into the 2013 off season and I would have put him on the trade block for 2 1st round picks if I were the Chargers. But, he's somehow manage to turn it all around. Very strange 2 year gap.
 
That reminded me of Brady's ill advised throw in that Miami game the year of our last SB... ended a little better for Brees than it did for Brady
 
Oof...nice kick Graham

Meh not really.

Pats shot themselves in the foot twice at the goal line if they don't game is 24-9.

Dolphins got a team that has done a lot of traveling this first month, and played their early season SB last week and as much as people want to think it has no affect, maybe really good teams it doesnt, but bad teams it probably does.
 
I like Rivers lately but that doesn't keep my brain from thinking "Bolo tie" every time I see him or hear his name.
