My apologies, I did not intend it that way. It's an admission and diagnosis of myself. It is not meant to show that I am "top dog". I have met folks who are more brilliant than I, and despite my aura I have presented myself here, I actually consider myself not that great of a mind.

If you don't want to believe me, that's ok. It's not like I can telepathically transport my thoughts.

I actually feel more confident with Grossman than I do with John Beck playing quarterback. When the Redskins were down 13-9 and inside the Dolphins 20 yard line, Grossman threw a interception. Obviously, he didn't see Dansby drop back in coverage. But that play destroyed any chance the Redskins had of winning that game.

Lol wow. Well that was a fun read.

time to try my new catch phrase,
"this triffles but matter not, for in the morning, comes andrew luck"

it's like the south park where kyle is trying to play badly, but the other team has practiced hard at sucking... we could be that other team.

Maybe Mike Shanahan should dial up Jake Plummer's phone number and talk him into coming out of retirement and playing for the Redskins...

firstdown · 11-14-2011, 10:43 AM

I think Shanny has known from day one we do not have our starting QB to build around and there was no one Shanny wanted to go out to get. I mean he can't just come out and say that he has to support who we have on our team. I

The only actually intelligent and incisive thing you have said in the entire thread.

I cringe reading the way you torture the english language ... what did it ever do to you???

This response is meant to be purely descriptive. Any other effects are not intended

The written word was never my strength. Hence, what I think never gets across correctly. The analogy is trying to stuff a pinata with too much stuff.

Do you have a Rhodes Scholarship?

I do not know what that is.

I am simply taking measures to improve my communication here.
