  • I'm just glad that we were able to confirm that cal's deep hatred of Rosen obviously has nothing to do with politics.

    I was simply responding to Tour's previous joke about military grade barns, asswhole.

    Here is what I said:

    "Now, if you had rosen, he's be afraid of the barn and any critters in it. And if he did hit the barn with a football,

    it would bounce back and give him a concussion and some banged up extremity. Then he would hate all barns, and

    whine and bitch about wanting Congress to ban barns...."

    I didn't bring politics into it, Tour did in a slight bit if humor, I responded in kind.

    Yes, jblew, you screwed yourself up again.

    Amazing... barely 24 hours have passed and reality has already escaped cal's grasp.

    Try again "asswhole"... here are the posts from the preceding page in the order in which they were posted as evidenced by the timestamps...

    @calfoxwc said:

    I"m sure they had dent-free barns.

    FIFY...

    @calfoxwc said:

    nah. wooden barns are dent-free. Now, aluminum siding barns, sure, they dent. But not wooden barns.

    Maybe if you back your combine into it, you might leave a scratch....

    Now, if you had rosen, he's be afraid of the barn and any critters in it. And if he did hit the barn with a football,

    it would bounce back and give him a concussion and some banged up extremity. Then he would hate all barns, and

    whine and bitch about wanting Congress to ban barns....

    @tour2ma said:

    Not all barns... just military-grade barns in civilian hands.

    cal... time to demonstrate your claimed "grace" by apologizing to jblum...

    eh? jblew never deserves an apology,he's always been an asswhole.... but that was my mistake. I"m busy.

    and I never promised you Allen haters a rose garden.🙄

  • Yeah... cause to apologize is weak.

  • This thought just occurred to me as being the summation of why I cannot get behind Allen...

    Collegiate QB prospects are far more likely to fail down than they are to fail up.

    Allen's last 5 games-10 TDs, 0 interceptions and the bad play by the other 3 qbs last game, and his poor supporting cast, lack of short passes & shotgun to pad stats like the others. Players improve & he changed mechanics & improved.

    Facts don't have opinions.  2+2 = 4 is not up for debate. Allen performed that way. His accuracy never got better from highschool all the way through college and he was the common denominator. I don't hate him. I would just prefer the Browns not be the one to try and move mountains for Allen so he can reach a skill level that he has never been able to achieve at any level of football. Why chance that at 1 or 4? 

    I don't see any tangible evidence that a QB dramatically gets better after being average against high school and college competition. 

  • I understand. But he went to a small hs, smaller college, one of three in town. Firebaugh hs was founded in 2005. Not an established powerhouse. And he was only 6'3", 180 lbs.

    I look at it like it's a team game, and stats depend on circumstances.

    A rb that goes to a small school with a poor offensive line and not much of a qb....does that mean they wouldn't be a star

    if they had played at one of the top universities in the country? I just think stats being attributed solely on the quality of the qb is a bunch of bullhockey.

    Ask yourself this - if rosen had gone to Wyoming, do you think he would have led them to

    a bowl game? I say, NOPE. Would rosen have been successful? NOPE, says I.

    Would rosen ever have gone to Wyoming? NOPE.

    A good athlete playing at a rinky dink school is also playing against talent from other rinky dink schools. Single A ball is single A ball from school to school. I know. I played Single A ball. A few guys who went on to play D-II football looked like world beaters at that level.

    If grandma had balls, she would be grandpa. I don’t give a hot sh-it about Rosen. He has his own issues and pluses.

    The "small school" excuse is wearing pretty thin at this point...

    Ben Roethlisburger went to Miami University, my Alma mater, in the sh.itty MAC conference, and he still managed to throw twice as many TDs, have a better TD/INT ratio, and had a QB rating nearly 10 PTS higher than Josh Allen.

    You have to face the facts: Josh Allen has a North Korean missile for an arm; it may be strong, but at the end of the day, it's not hitting shi.t.

    Thanks JB. the wife went to Miami, and we live a couple country roads up the way from Oxford in Dayton. Saw plenty of Ben at Miami, and he was dominant there with crazy stats. Cal's trying to spew crap Ben's Miami teams were way superior. If he doesn't like Ben, we can give him Joe Flacco at Delaware State 23 TD, 5 INT, 63 completion%.  Allen didn't dominate the Mountain West. It's apples to apples- Josh might have been playing with inferior teammates- but he was also playing against inferior competition. Couldn't even win MW Offensive player of the year- that honor went to Rasaad Penny, a guy more than a few here want us to draft- he DID dominate at the Mountain West level. Paying attention Cal?

    Some team is going to fall in love with his rocket launcher arm- I just hope it isn't us.

  • so, jblew, you went there - you should have known that. But thanks for stepping in a cowpie.

  • It's funny, all the mock drafts, reporters, etc. out there say it's Darnold going away...but I just can't help but feel as though it's going to be Allen. There are moments when I believe he could grow into the man, but then I am so risk adverse at the qb position, that I feel as though Darnold is the right call. The more I think about it, the more I really believe the browns are going to draft Allen as their qb of the future.

    That statement right there shows how desperate your argument has become. If you think that any football team in the MAC conference is a football powerhouse, you are on the verge of senility.

    Face the facts: this whole meandering thread of yours is nothing but an attempt by you to fit a square peg into a round hole by trying to make Josh Allen out to be a better QB prospect than Josh Rosen, not because of superior skills or athletic merit, but simply because you can't stand the political viewpoints of Rosen. Its that simple; I know it, and everyone else who's debated your horsesh.it logic in this thread knows it too. You seem to be the only one who wants to continue to live in Wonderland, Alice.

  • jblew sissy translation:

    "well, der, blah blah blah blah blah, whine, scratch, blah, blah blah stupid stuff..."

    look, anybody on this entire board can see the truth - Miami won all those titles over all those years,

    and only ONCE did they lose two games in a season.

    Meanwhile, at Kent:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Kent_State_Golden_Flashes_football_seasons

    They only had three good seasons in a long time.

    1954

    1972

    and 2012.

    Yep - rapistbooger sure had some good stats vs Kent State.

    idiot.
