Damn, we were just starting to have a decent flow on the Lions board and then these two showed up. I'm starting to think they might be the same person.

Well actually, you would have to think that Drew Stanton must have friends and relatives. What's to stop them from popping in here and trying to generate support for him? It's actually quite surprising that there aren't support posts all over the internet in favor of him by friends and family, it couldn't hurt, might be a good strategy to create a little stir around him! I think you can rule me out as a biased Drew fan, otherwise I wouldn't even bring attention to that strategy as to not risk diluting its effectiveness.

After all, a huge part of my rationale for supporting Drew is so that he can increase his trade value so I can pawn him off like a piece of meat! :wink:

Oh and also David Garrard exited earlier with a neck injury, don't know if it is serious or not, but that could make things more interesting if JAX is looking for a QB in trade.

i think Sanchez is going to suck ?

your opion does not count i go by the facts stafford =42% for all preseason games thats who sucks!!

You have to count all the preseason games sanchez =83% he's twice as good as stafford


Good logic. Since Sanchezs QB rating is double Staffords, he twice as good. awesome.

You can want Sanchez all you want. I dont care. I like Stafford because he started 3 years, has a better arm, has no injury history, is an underrated athlete, has a great attitude and displays leadership qualities and didnt play in a system like USC that could make me look good. Thats just me.

And stop with the Drew Stanton crap. just stop. Clearly the coaches are not going to make him the starter. Because clearly two preseason games against third string D's are not enough to properly grade your future at QB. I watched probably every single game he played at MSU. Seriously. I watched him play live multiple times. He is not an NFL QB. He will be a very nice backup to Matt, but he cannot start in this league. Dont you think he would have played last year, when we were looking for anyone to play, if he had the talent. Give me some evidence, outside of this preseason, to suggest he should be playing. Show me something.


I am beginning to doubt that you guys actually watch games


Keep your requests, which sound like orders, of discouraging proper debate on an important issue to yourself. I am beginning to doubt you have even bothered to try and think of all of the positive ramifications that COULD result from playing Stanton, as these possibilities DO EXIST. Albeit they may be small and open to debate, but you can't say something has a 0% chance of happening, and you are begging for 0% talk because you seem to think something that the POSSIBLE IS IMPOSSIBLE. You are a terrible poster, not to mention EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional, and you should just leave the Stanton supporters to talk amongst themselves if you are going to have such a closed-minded approach to other people's opinions that actually care and want the best for the team.



First: i didnt want it t sound like a demand. Its a figure of speech. Sorry for the confusion.

Second: My opinions are my opinions. Doesnt mean they are right, doesnt mean yours are wrong. And i am not trying to stifle debate. But arguing that Stanton should be our starter i find to be a little silly when we have a respected vet and a 40 million dollar first overall pick sitting around. But again, thats my opinion.

Third: You want to continue the convo, go ahead. I am not going to participate, but feel free.

Fourth:
You are a terrible poster, not to mention EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional, and you should just leave the Stanton supporters to talk amongst themselves if you are going to have such a closed-minded approach to other people's opinions that actually care and want the best for the team


Yeah, completely unnecessary. Now i realize i have been a bit aggressive in my debates with you and have started some of this, so that i apologize for and can give leeway about. BUT


I wont just sit here and let you call me "rude," "unprofessional," "close minded," and a "terrible poster." Those are personal attacks, and i don't appreciate it. I don't think i earned the title of community mod of all Detroit sports by being a bad poster. Or earned being a Wings or Pistons mod through close mindedness. Ive been here over 3 years now and have not had a problem yet. You have been here a month. I do my damnedest to inspire talk on all 4 boards and to try and be somewhat knowledgeable once in a while.

So please, you don't have to like what i say, bow to my authority, agree with me or even think i know what i am talking about. But a little respect for me, and everyone else, is needed. You deserve the respect as well, but respect is earned. My time here has earned that.

So please, no more personal attacks. Thanks

They are not personal attacks, that's not what a personal attack is. I don't know what your reputation is as I haven't been here for that time. What you have or have not done in the past is not relevant to the fact that you have exhibited all of those adjectives VERY clearly in just the last week that you have posted. If you actually want to segregate those terms and call me out on having to cite examples to fit those words I would do that for you, as I stand by everything I say and pride myself on the accuracy of my content. I would never attack somebody on a personal level just for disagreeing with their opinions. My comments regarding you I stand by as being accurate observations commensurate with YOUR words and actions. I didn't ask you to behave that way, I'm just minding my own business trying to engage in legitimate conversations and don't see why you keep trying to steer every conversation that I'm part of into some kind of insult game. What is there to gain from that?

And then you try and spin it like I'm in fault of disrespect and the one attacking you? LOL please, that's fine if you want bygones to be bygones, but if you are going to have the audacity to try and defend your position after there is absolute clarity to your exhibiting of the claimed adjectives then I'm not going to let you say such things and get away with like as if you haven't behaved in those manners. This conversation and this post is ONLY because of the way you have conducted yourself.

So now you've NEVER had a problem like that? Oh wow, that's really great logic. So if we said that Mr. X murdered Mr. Y but never murdered anybody else, that's somehow ok that he only murdered that person? So then Mr. X can then say, well go ahead ask any of the other letters of the alphabet if I murdered them, they have not been murdered by myself and can attest as such. Why you chose to behave like you did to me should be YOUR problem, not mine, so don't make it mine, and stop wasting my time trying to suggest as to otherwise. You made your own bed, I didn't do it for you. I show respect when I post and I post quality, and I'm not going to stand for letting you try to spin things to the contrary.

So if you truly do have a sincere motive to talk about sports on these boards, I kindly request of you to not make things up and instigate silly games, as I highly doubt anybody on these boards wants to read that junk. Thank you for listening and sorry to others for the distraction, you have my solemn promise that I will never intentionally try to derail legitimate sports conversations with personal junk, you will never see that kind of a post from me unless it is in defense of somebody that attacks me or tries to persuade the audience with mistruths that put a negative spin on my content. I am a fighter and the most competitive person that I know, and I will not bow down to those that want to make a mockery of sports, I take this stuff VERY seriously.

Long story short, you can't beat me-I don't lose, and it's MUCH more pleasant to join me as I'm a very nice guy if you get to know me, so do the sensible thing. :)

You are very arrogant ,and abuse what authority you think you have.
You also have not earned respect from Me or TSE and most people on many boards by the way you talk. .
You should try to be more humble to people when talking.
One more thing no one is going to bow to you!!!!!!!

P..s. TSE is very smart and i do like him,he makes many good points in his conversations.

Hey thanks! Ok well at least now he can't say that EVERYBODY hates me! It's nice to know that there's always somebody out there that can find something positive in my posts as it really feeds the motive to do so. This is not the first time or place on the internet that I have encountered some resistance to my controversial sports theories, but knowing that somebody out there will be reading and taking away something positive from it is very rewarding.

As I had mentioned previously, I don't post here for my health. I don't post here because I have unlimited free time in my life, and nobody is paying me money to make posts; the primary reason of WHY I post is for readers like you that can find positive enjoyment in reading my content. And it's doubly nice to find others that post with the same motives to enrich my reading experience the same way.

Although since you did pay me a compliment I'm sure you will now be branded as my brother or as a duplicate account of myself, I'm sorry for any indirect trouble that may cause you! ;)

Because, if people are getting pissed off talking about sports, then something just sounds inherently wrong with that. I can't see how anybody could piss me off here by stating an opinion that they had regarding sports no matter how much I disagree with their opinion, so it's not going to be me that darts off into an emotional tirade, or engaging in unproductive and condescending belittling or name-calling, or any kind of negative junk as I don't get emotionally biased in debate, I am only concerned with the merits of the ideas and the enriching experience of analyzing sports topics.

If somebody said something as ridiculous such as suggesting that Marcus Thames should be the Tiger's lead-off hitter, or that our DEs are so weak that we should shift Backus to the DE spot, then I would be very confused as to how they would come up with those ideas, but I wouldn't invent a way for myself to be insulted or angered by those notions. And at some point in rebutting their ideas I would also throw in there the obligatory question regarding how they came up with that idea just to make sure that I'm not somehow overlooking the most clever outside-of-the-box idea ever.

I don't know if you're for real or not since you don't know how to quote.... but Ajax said that, not me. :wink:

And as for "most people on many boards", they happen to like Ajax..... can't say the same for you two.

LOL at saying Sanchez is better after 2 preseason games.

Do you HONESTLY think that ANY QB can be successful in Detroit?! I even have a hard time believing that Peyton Manning and Tom Brady can make things happen in Detroit with the offensive line that they have.

I was praying that we'd bring in Mike Vick cuz we need a QB that can escape the pressure that our offensive line continually lets through.

Which Lion has the second-worst passer rating in the exhibition season among quarterbacks with an average of at least 14 passes per game? If you guessed No. 1 overall draft pick Matthew Stafford, .

OK, OK. Passer ratings are a little, shall we say, incomprehensible? Still, it's a rough measurement that roughly says Stafford has not lit the world on fire. He played well at times against the Colts, throwing strong passes of 40 and 37 yards, and he was 13-for-19 for 160 yards with an interception that wasn't his fault.
