"The game has passed him by"

So if his post count on this board is low, his opinions about other posters are automatically worthless? Please don't go there.

. How about you get more than 32
posts before you start scolding the board. 2 cents.

so what if he's only got 32 posts?

he's entitled to express his opinions just like you are...

[pfelix73]

I agree. I'm all for hearing everyone's opinions, regardless of how many posts... 32 or 20,000.... so what?

. To come into a new community and start scolding membership is poor form.

[Shawn]

So I'm not supposed to express my opinion because I'm "new"? Good to know that's the way it works around here...

. No, it's bad manners to come into someone's home and begin critiquing them.

Hey brazilsteel - Hawaiiansteel is a mod. If he says you can post like that, go right ahead. Don't pay attention to what some others might say to the contrary. You might have noticed that large post #s don't correlate with anything except large post #s. Lots of exhibit "A"s around to prove the point!

And welcome to the Planet. Just don't criticize anything I write, or I'll recommend you need to get 1,000 minimum before you can post anything beyond "+1".

[Shawn]

I find it rude sue me. And you are very right about post count. I know many who haven't written a decent insightful post in ages...only sit around taking pot shots at others. So Brazil consensus says write whatever you wish. But goodness forbid if you don't spell LeBeaus name right you will have gang mob here to set you in your place. You guys crack me up.

. You know what I find most amusing about the members if this community? They forget all the correct calls you have made over the years...never say a word when you just nail something (ie Shazier, Adams, Bell, Mosley). But they never forget your misses and use them as ammo the first time they are challenged. Your post reeks of arrogance, and is frankly beneath what I have always considered a quality poster such as yourself.

Never say a word when you are right?
I beg to differ .

Shawn I'm glad to here your input. I have mentioned his impressive numbers but admit I Have not seen many OSU games. When I posted yesterday I was very interested your take. I gave much respect to you opinion on Adams last year.

Shawn I have always liked you as a poster. You are one of my favs brother. But its playful banter dude nothing serious.

I wear a cape and look at my expression. The regal stand I have.
If you were a fearless rodent warrior .......you'd be arrogant too.

So sorry the rest of us can't live up to your high standards, Shwan...

I've learned not to expect much...so no worries.

We should expect no more than we are willing to give...

Dude... I don't remember you complaining when I gave you props for calling it right on Adams (hopefully he proves you wrong) and for your predictions on Bell.

Your miss is fresh off the presses Shawn... deal with it.

It's all jokes

Ya know what's funny about all these "I told ya posts"? Many are not founded in reality. You do realize this D is ranked 21st in the NFL correct? [URL]http://www.oddsshark.com/nfl/defensive-stats[/URL]

When the offense is scoring at will, and the opponent is down multiple scores early, your D is going to give up a lot of yardage and points. Just take a look at the Manning boys. Eli threw for 359 yards, 2 TDs, and they put up 24. Peyton put up 438 yards, 2 TDs, and 21 points.

The week before, Rodgers threw for 418 yards - and they lost by 21. Both Cutler and Rivers threw 3 TDs - and they lost by 28 and 14 respectively. Get up big and these things happen.
