  • Gipper doesn't back up his comments with anything. The rare occasion that he does its talking about the league before the NFL merger. Case in point his comment about Sanders leaving the Steelers and disappearing. Completely baseless because he has absolutely no idea about any team outside the Browns and even then his current base of knowledge is spotty at best.

    I have 1000 times more knowledge than you do about this league. I disseminate 1000 time more useful knowledge to the patrons here than you do.I back up my comments 100 times more often than you do.

    You don't know shit about anybody BUT the Steelers.

    As for Sanders....despite going elsewhere and having all those yards he was not much of a factor on that team.

    And it is also a fact that you probably spent time googling Sanders numbers just to say that I didn't know my facts.

    You are too big of a fucking coward to even try the Trivia which I put on here...of which 90% is non Browns related.

    (and even if you did, I wouldn't trust you not to cheat and look up the answers)

  • I'll bet Gipper won't leave it at that. He'll bring me something. He's proud like that. And that's fine. We have to remember where we are. I'm trying not to instigate anyone too hard because I like friendly debate. I'm definitely not into the vicious name calling and yelling. We'll see how it goes.

    You seem fair.....but I am not beyond vicious name calling and yelling when its warranted. With The Vagina it is warranted.

    Like I said, I put out 1000 times more info and data about the NFL..past and present than most people here. If I get 999 data points correct and one wrong that assfuck comes on here saying "you don't know anything about the NFL....you got something wrong" Of course....I get a thing wrong now and then....but I still bat about .999.

    You do present a lot of data and information. That's why your fellow posters respect you. Your relationship with Vag is pretty hostile, to the point you guys can't disagree without getting nasty. I hope to avoid that myself although I will disagree with you if I disagree with you. We're coming from different places. Your team has struggled for a while, mine has had a bit more success. At the end of the day we're talking about sports teams that we root for. That's it. I'm a little luckier than you in that regard due to the success of the team I root for. That's it. We get too caught up in trivial things like this. It's fun to debate. It can be fun to disagree and argue respectfully. I have just as many Browns fan friends as Steeler fan friends. We grew up together and have a lot of fun talking about our teams.

    There are times I want to strangle Ben Roethlisberger when he holds on to the ball too long. I happens almost every game. And if I feel that way I have no problem saying it. The Steelers have lost games because of his poor play. Hell, my wife thinks he sucks. My 17yr old son thinks he stinks half the time as well. I've wanted to yell at Dick Lebeau at times over the years because I couldn't understand the arrogant defensive play calling against Tim Tebow, or I couldn't understand how they couldn't make adjustments when the Browns were running the same outside zone runs followed by play action play after play and killing him. There was a stretch last year where they stunk as a team. I thought the season was lost. My Browns buddies beat me over the head too. But it's just different than what you guys sometime do here. There's real hatred. I'll participate and provide a counterview some times as long as I'm welcome. I'll know when I'm not and I'll go away. No biggie.

    The Steelers are pretty good talent evaluators and they almost never miss in the first round. Stuart touched on Jarvis Jones after your reply and mentioned that he's a bust. He started as a rookie and was overwhelmed and rightfully so. The lebeau defense is complicated. He then lost his sophomore season to injury. His two year stats arent bad considering he's only played 21 games with the first being his rookie year. Harrison also wasn't brought in to split time with Jones. Harrison was brought back to platoon with Arthur Moats.

    Now for you Gipper you mention Sanders and post as if you are 100% certain he went "somewhere else, and disappeared" and this is where you lose all credibility with me. You make these sort of statements on the regular. Sanders went to Denver. He only finished with 1404 yards receiving on 101 catches for 9 touchdowns. How is that something you missed?

    Edit: and lacy isn't as good as bell.

    No, I knew that Sanders went to Denver. I didn't know those exact numbers. All I did know is that it seems that he was lost among bigger names on that receiving corps....Julius Thomas, Denarius Thomas, Wes Welker.

    And if Bell is better than Lacy, it is only by a cunt hair.

    Only sanders wasn't. He was 1b to Thomas as 1a.

    I'd rather not go round and round with Gipper. He then makes posts like the few above about Sanders. I stopped giving a damn about Sanders the minute he left the steelers, but to say he one disappeared in Denver and two didn't have much of on impact is both ignorant and absolutely ego riddled. His ego is so substantial he can spew something 200% wrong but still pass it off as correct. Sanders was a vital part of the Denver offense this past season. He makes posts like this all the time.

    OK, he was their #2 WR......but Welker still got all the publicity.....and really he was at best their #3 option behind also the Tight End and #4 in terms of the run he got.

    So Sanders was easy to ignore because he got lost in the shuffle.

    My name calling also doesn't enter the conversation until its dished to me. I have a few very civil reoccurring discussions on this board, all via pm. Those posters understand its not always possible to be civil with the mob, someone always takes the discussion off track. Gipper is also absolutely delusional in relation to the steelers. He's been calling for the demise for as long as I've been on this board on both this name and my old name.

    Yea, like I said, I got one factoid out of a thousand wrong. I bat .999, you bat about .001.

    I stopped giving a damn about Sanders the minute he left the steelers,

    Apparently not, since you seem to have intimate knowledge of his career....much much more than anyone who doesn't give a damn about him should have.

    but to say he one disappeared in Denver and two didn't have much of on impact is both ignorant and absolutely ego riddled.

    I am sure he made some impact....as their #3 option. But he had far, far less notoriety than his other 3 compadres....so, in that respect, yes, he disappeared from public view.

    His ego is so substantial

    It is. For good reason.

    he can spew something 200% wrong but still pass it off as correct.

    You can't even do math. There is no such thing as 200% wrong.

    Sanders was a vital part of the Denver offense this past season. He makes posts like this all the time.

    Sanders may be more vital this coming year than last year, since Welker may not bemuch of a factor, and I believe they lost their TE.

    Well....OK, there you are 200% wrong. OTHERS have called for the demise of the Steelers. I have been reticent about that fact.

    You made another mistake. When are you going to get something wrong.

    No Gipper he wasn't. He doesn't have the prominent national name but he was the number two in Denver. If anything it was welker that got lost in the shuffle. Is it really that hard to admit you were wrong? Or are you just going to backpedal and dance?

    Gipper that's simply not true. You are no different than the other detractors and name calling competition? I'm half your age Gipper. I'm pretty sure I've got a more relevant name calling arsenal. I'm just not interested in getting banned or being flat out hurtful.

    Vag, like I said, I've been a lurker here for years and I have to tell you from one Steeler fan to another....you don't have to defend all things Steelers all the time. It's not necessary. These guys bait you in and you can't help yourself. Whenever someone on a Browns board says something like "The Steelers suck!" you don't have to jump in and explain why they don't and get yourself all wound up. It's not necessary. When a Browns fan says the Steelers suck, wear it like a fandom badge of honor. It's a term of endearment. It's like me or you saying the Pats suck. Well, we're probably a little jealous of their success and likewise tend to find and dwell on everything we can about them that makes us feel better about our non-Super Bowl winning team. It's pretty much the same thing. These guys will gladly verbally gang-rape you because you're in their house. Quit letting them. Pull it back a little. You don't have the burden of proof when it comes to comparing these teams and who is better at this or that. I'm not telling you to shut up, just choose your battles better.

    Big timer if I didn't break up the circle jerk no one would. I am never, i repeat NEVER upset when I post here. It's more amusing to me than anything else because most of the criticism is so blind it's comical. There are several strong posters here that keep me coming back and as I mentioned somewhere above a few on going private message conversations I enjoy. I'm keenly aware of the baiting and get extra amusement out of guys like Gipper that think they are pulling a "fast one" on me when they bait me into a flame war. They aren't baiting me. I enjoy debating/arguing and even flaming when the context calls for it and when I get on here and defend the Steelers its usually out of boredom. I have long stretches were I don't post at all and am more than happy to read BUT once again I enjoy defending the Steelers here. I always enjoy watching gipper fall all over himself and can probably count on two hands the number of times I've read one of his novels completely without power skimming. I cut my teeth arguing on the internet, I'm a better debater in person because of it if I'm being honest. If i really cut loose here I'd get banned and i KNOW a lot of the better posters here are absolutely tired of all the flaming between Browns fans and the ridiculous opinions a select few project on the regular. If you really want a good time go over to the political board. It's a tea party convention over there and as a staunch liberal it's a treasure trove of hilarious arguing points.

    Steelers > Browns

I cut my teeth arguing on the internet, I'm a better debater in person because of it if I'm being honest. If i really cut loose here I'd get banned and i KNOW a lot of the better posters here are absolutely tired of all the flaming between Browns fans and the ridiculous opinions a select few project on the regular. If you really want a good time go over to the political board. It's a tea party convention over there and as a staunch liberal it's a treasure trove of hilarious arguing points.

    Steelers > Browns

    Big timer if I didn't break up the circle jerk no one would. I am never, i repeat NEVER upset when I post here. It's more amusing to me than anything else because most of the criticism is so blind it's comical. There are several strong posters here that keep me coming back and as I mentioned somewhere above a few on going private message conversations I enjoy. I'm keenly aware of the baiting and get extra amusement out of guys like Gipper that think they are pulling a "fast one" on me when they bait me into a flame war. They aren't baiting me. I enjoy debating/arguing and even flaming when the context calls for it and when I get on here and defend the Steelers its usually out of boredom.

    Point taken. I mistook your joy for frustration.

    It's all good. I have long time posters here that are diehard Browns fans that appreciate my point of view and for me I ALWAYS want a dissenting opinion because it forces me to evaluate my own. It also strengthens my arguments. There are a lot of REALLY bad posters on this board but you can wade through those and find the few good ones that make it worthwhile. Gipper is just the loudest and usually the most off base as a direct result. He just goes and goes and goes and goes talking in big looping circles, never backs up his claims with anything but his self inflated opinion. He still won't admit that he was heinously off base with Sanders. He'll instead spin it 40 times in an attempt to find one shred of plausible sticking point.

    Another article written by Retards who are nowhere close to the situation.

    For starters, they are saying we lost Robertson, Kitchen, Bademosi and Gipson. Really? We did?

    Then one writer says we need a WR more than anything else, then speculates maybe we are planning to run. Really? You think so?

    Using bad info and not knowing anything about the team really tends to skew the opinion - everytime.

    Why people even read or post this amateur crap is beyond me.
