The Official Thank You Mark Brunell Thread

There are a lot of players who could not. Class, effort, and all those other intangibles mean a lot to team chemistry. Thus, Gibbs has always emphasized such characteristics. Classy and effort-guys are becoming a rarer breed in the NFL and I value guys who show both class and effort.

I guess we differ; we both value results (W v. L) above everything else, I just think class and effort help teams get those all-important Ws. Did Brunell's class deliver us victories? Nope, but I value them nonetheless and think they certainly helped.


I tell you what, our 'character' up until now, has gotten us very little in the win column. And I'm starting to be of the opinion that maybe we have too many 'classy' guys in our locker room.

i will thank him for not bitchign and not slamming the fans even when we were assholes to him.

Dude...seriously, let it go. If you don't have anything nice to say about the guy, just don't post here or post your ill-tempered posts in the millions of "F-U Brunell" threads that can be found on every page of this forum.

Not to derail the thread too much, but it's funny how Brunell was benched less than 24 hours ago, and everyone has to "let it go" in reference to their negative feelings towards his performance. Yet, all the Brunell supporters STILL slam [backup Jets QB] on a regular basis. But yeah, let's handle Brunell like an injured puppy...

But I would like to give Brunell props for managing the team fairly well for 2/3's of the season last year. He does seem like a nice guy, and I've actually felt bad at times for slamming him, but that's to be expected when you're a starting quarterback in Washington.

First of all, I don't owe Brunell any nice comments, and I don't think my posts are ill-tempered. And don't tell me where to post either.

MB is a class act and should be commended for his efforts and his patience w/ the media every week. The fact of the matter is not everybody can do what nfl qb's can, in fact about 20 people in the world do it above average. I have often critized mb but have never taken the personal jabs that many on this board do.

I thought you were busy studying?

I guess you missed my previous post. Here you go in case you missed it:

Honestly, if you don't have anything positive to add to the conversation there are plenty of F you Brunell threads already going on. Let's keep this thread positive since that was the purpose of SGG posting it. Let's at least respect the intent of the thread.

So, Matty do you think my posts have been ill-tempered?

Nobody attacks Ramsey out of the blue. He gets slammed when the Ramsey lovers try to get a pity party going for him.

So, Matty do you think my posts have been ill-tempered?

They are definitely on the negative side, so as I asked let's respect the intent of this thread and keep it positive. There are more than enough Brunell bashing threads already in existence.

Those that respect his efforts here would like to have an opportunity to voice that without someone pissing on the parade for once.
