I am not sure why I bother anymore. Here are the answers. YES YOU ARE....... BECAUSE YOU LOVE TO SEE YOUR OWN RHETORIC IN PRINT!

Except, of course, none of this is rhetoric. These are pure researched fact.

I get that you are too lazy, too stupid, too ignorant to even make an effort to try your hand at these trivia facts.

You know nothing about football. I think you care nothing about football.

Clearly I put in a lot of effort learning about football. I report more data and hard knowledge on football than anyone you have ever encountered I would wager. I care about football and its history, and I study it.

You are the one that spouts nothing but rhetoric, if by rhetoric one means "talking about things one has no knowledge or evidence of".

I mean, You cannot even remember that you engaged in a lengthy conversation just a couple of weeks ago.

You don't even know what you yourself have said.

You prove yourself an imbecile day after day after day.
