Peter King snubs Brian Orakpo - DC Pro Sports Report

FRPLG · 08-26-2009, 01:03 PM

Peter King is a giant pile of crap. He is utterly clueless when it comes to football. That anyone respects his opinions on the great sport is baffling. There are a lot of people in the world in positions of influence, power, authority or commentary that have no business but PK is the king(no pun intended) of the club. There are 50 posters on this board who'd do a better job. He repeatedly is simply wrong and he often shows his complete lack of understanding of the game. His constant pimping of names and connections is belied by the fact that he is always scooped on stories involving his "frineds". He gets paid to tell us about football. What a damn joke.

End rant.

That was a diss. The best rookie so far is Orakpo. Point blank period.

SC Skins Fan · 08-26-2009, 01:14 PM

OMG he totally dissed the first 21 players picked in the first round. My head is about to explode! (eye roll)

haha exactly. I think this is more a list of the top ten rookies that impressed him(which based on draft status, otherwise would not have). Just look at the reader comment which promoted the article.

Zerohero · 08-26-2009, 01:28 PM

I'f it was a list about disappointing players i'm sure they would have put us on there somewhere.

MTK · 08-26-2009, 01:14 PM

Pretty laughable.

BleedBurgundy · 08-26-2009, 01:17 PM

How's it a snub? He's been solid, but it's not like he's far and away the best rookie so far. PK is just giving his opinion.

Did you read the article?

Yeah, and perhaps more importantly, i also read PK's article on SI.com. All he is saying is that the mentioned rookies impressed him. Really, who cares? I could honestly care less about our players individually, just let the damn team win double digit games and make it to the post season. That's all i want.

According to King himself, "Here are the 10 rookies I've seen who've impressed me in the preseason..."

Nowhere does he write that these are all supposed to be sleepers. Perhaps that's what he means, but we shouldn't assume it.

Maybe he has not seen him play.

Dirtbag59 · 08-26-2009, 02:58 PM

He was going for guys picked a little later in the draft. If you notice Percy Harvin in the earliest pick to make it on that list.

I agree with what firstdown said, maybe he hasn't seen the skins play. How can he he make a judgment if he hasn't?

Again read the comment which prompted the article. Also notice how most are mid to late draft round picks. Perhaps he should have clarified, but it is quite clear to me.

Orakpo is a beast so that's all I care about.
