And now the pot is calling the kettle black. You should heed your own words in your previous post. But my "****ty choice of words" isn't what prompted your original response to me. It can't be because my choice of words were absolutely apt when it comes to the defensive gameplan against the Jets. I have a feeling it was something else that I posted in another thread because, otherwise, this is way too random and you're reaching way too much. So, pray tell, what was it that prompted you to engage me in a pissing contest unprovoked?
How am I reaching? And how am I trying to engage you in a pissing contest unprovoked?
How is my post any different than this:
Can we please stop this bull. In the short week they had the second worst case scenario happen in losing Mayo. Losing any other player other than Brady would have been better. See how they do this week before crucifying them. You think the Patriots would have been able to move down the field at will against whatever team has the 32nd rated pass defense if TB12 was out? Why are we expecting the team to be able to magically continue chugging along when we lost the guy that calls the defensive plays 4 days prior to the match up. Last year Hightower said that while he knew that he would call plays when Mayo is not there, he was not expected to know how to change plays initially.
However, my guess is that you will not read any of the above, and continue in the campaign of "our defense sucks!!?!" and nothing anyone says will ever change your mind. Therefore, carry on.
Personally I consider my post to be a more respectful version of the post that I've quoted above.
****ified and ****ty.
No, I dont find those to be "absolutely apt" in describing the game plan of a game we won.
Just as I don't find the sentiment of what I was clearly trying to express as being some great, unprovoked attempt to draw you into a pissing contest or some personal attack because I didn't like what you wrote somewhere else.
Yes I used snark to counter what I consider to be your over the top criticism of a game we won.
But did I also not preface my original post with these two statements:
1. I agree with the gist of what you are saying.
2. You would be surprised at how often I agree with what you are saying.
Those statements were a gesture, a gesture of respect and goodwill. Hell ultimately I even acknowledged the validity of your points. The snark is about the degree in which you take them.
I'm not sure how many homers would even give you that to be honest.
