Ok. We skipped a step. You don’t think that JM’s one start, against a great defense, was as good or better than all of Nico’s starts he had last year against great, good, or decent defenses?

And nice job of reframing. More disenguousness. I never said Martin was the better player. Go back and read the tape. I said that based on the evidence, I don’t think that if Nico is better, he’s enough better to justify paying him probably 1.5 million more than JM. Money which we could use to bolster our very mid D Line. And w Nico there’s a bigger risk that if he does show out, he’s gone.

And I said if it turns out I was wrong you’ll eat off that for 10 years and I’ll say I was wrong. You take this stuff wayyyyyyyyt more seriously than I do.

To wit, I said recruiting wasn’t Dorrell’s problem, he recruited pretty well.” His average class rank was 21 his first three years, until it was clear he couldn’t coach a lick. and that if Foster recruited to that level I’d be happy. Turns out foster is doing better. Yay! Haven’t you said Fister won’t last more than 3 years or something like that? Fister brought in something like 14 guys that played in the NFL, including Mo Jones-Drew and other outstanding players, whom I forgot because I never would have anticipated that you would randomly regurgitate that discussion all these months later.

Let’s be clear on 9/11. In response to a post where I thought a guy was basically saying “conspiracies don’t exist” I listed a long list of obvious everyday conspiracies, including price fixing. And I said. “I don’t think we’ve been told everything thing about 911. I find it very hard to believe that those two buildings just collapsed on themselves. I don’t give it much thought, there’s nothing I can do about it.” You don’t think it’s Weird that those 2 buildings just collapsed on themselves?

What’s even weirder than that is that by daring (I’m using the word facetiously) to post that I don’t think that running JM and Davis off while getting Nico is what I would have done. And backing that up with facts, which you haven’t even tried to negate, warrants your tantrum.

Ya, if I disagree with the conventional wisdom, I’ll question it. Why not? What’s a chat board for? We’re all supposed to have the same option?

So silly.
