BIGBLUE01 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Hey BadEgg hows it going? Too bad about T.O. but there is something to be said for a little less talent and more team rapore I hope you guys have a great draft, and give us a run for our money this year. Nothing like a the NFC East rivalries and ours in particular. Good luck with your new home. Right now, based upon our late season swoons I'd say both teams have a lot to prove in 2009. I hope each one of those faggots gets a venerial disease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gspotter Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 This is why I stopped responding to most threads...douchebags like JackStroud made the other MB a waste. I was Tony still had his site up, it was nice not having to deal with this stuff. My only advice, don't respond to Jack's threads...they only exist to keep existing....and they are the same one's over and over again. :brooding: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BronxRik Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 This is why I stopped responding to most threads...douchebags like JackStroud made the other MB a waste. I was Tony still had his site up, it was nice not having to deal with this stuff I read this 3 times before I decided it bothered me. I know you've been a respectable poster both here and on the GMB, so I am going to try and say this with all due respect. We have a very small handful of 'trolls' here, 3 I would actually classify as true trolls. That's a pretty small amount compared to other message boards. We're a small community, and we do let alot of stuff slide, as our membership has been pretty tight knit for quite some time now. (In fact, if we followed the letter of the law, you calling Jack a douchebag would be a warnable offense, but I digress). The truth is, boards get stale, particularly in the off-season. Members have actually posted they WANT a few trolls around to liven the place up. Others find that a horrible thought. We can't win. Just as an example (and I'm only using Jack because he was referenced in this thread), let's say we ban Jack. Those who disagree with him would jump for joy, while the proponents of free speech would get their panties in a bunch. If we do nothing, people who dislike Jack's posts claim other boards were better, and call for him to be banned (I'm not saying you in particular called for him to banned). Yet the people who prefer to take what he says with a grain of salt and choose to either reply or ignore are happy because 'big brother' isn't dictating what they can and cannot read. Until Jack (or anyone for that matter) severely breaks the rules, he and anyone else around here is free to post pretty much whatever they like. We can't just warn/suspend/ban people just because they post things that people disagree with. Stupid posting is not a 'punishable' offense. Hell, we still get shit from some members for daring to ban the Fab 4 from here. The point is, it's a message board, and if everyone was always in agreement, or always liked what everyone else posted, it'd be pretty boring around here. Let me reiterate, Gspotter, this is not directed AT you, more like your post just set off the sounding board to explain a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 i would venture to say that out of gspotters 600+ posts on this board, 500 of them are calling out one "troll" or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that's "wish" and not "was", that is one of the more ignorant statements ever on this board. I never had an issue with you G before this, but if that's the way you feel, then you should move on. This board was up before Tony's, and his is gone a long time, so if it was so good, why'd it shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I LOVE this board... it's just like Rik said a tight nit family.. with all kinds of "interesting" characters...

JackStroud Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 I guess to some sensitive souls, anyone who disagrees with them, or does not worship players they worship is a troll That's a narrow viewpoint, and if it were allowed to take control would lead to ta totalitarian board I'm sure all the Nazi's in Germany thought they were right and the rest of the world should be "banned"....in modern times you have all kinds of extremist groups, and some countires who follow tha old nazi path If you want to talk old boards. the original giants board was wide open, and a ton on fun until some people could not resist taking it to the limit, and the fist came down .......whiping the current events board away altogether, and eventually making he Giants section a closely monitored bore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can't figure out, nor have you explained how the teams troubles in the LAST 5 games of last season has anything to do with the amazing superbowl run the team went on the year before. The superbowl team played lights out football in the playoffs, then continued to roll of a fantastic record until the end of the next year, mainly when the 2 new starting defensive ends wore down (which first time starters always do) the defensive tackles got busted up, and the teams big play threat was eliminated from the equation. What does that have to do with the shiny new trophy in the trophy case from the prior season?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SB in the first year and #1 Seed in the NFC the year after... could things have been better? Of course.. but stop having the glass is half empty mentality... seriously... just which team in the NFL had a better season that we did? The Steelers?

Of course.. but stop having the glass is half empty mentality... seriously... just which team in the NFL had a better season that we did? The Steelers? We beat them on their own turf... they knew we were for real. One could argue that the Steelers did indeed have a better season, as they won the SB. One could further argue the Cards had a better season as they actually went to the SB, albeit lost. Regardless of whether or not we were 'for real', they both went to the show, and we didn't. Did we have a successful season? Absolutely. But that's another thread, I've caused enough trouble in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGBLUE01 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Traitor LOL....when I logged back on to GMB, and asked where everyone went back in late 05', that's where I was told. Then, after that sucked, I stopped posting for about a month, went back on to GMB once, asked again and someone told me you all we're here. On Bluehearts board (for the month I was on there) I saw some oldies from the CE section, but not like here. I remember a ton of people here from GMB CE. But thats why, when I asked where you guys were, I was told there. But I used to ask for Hampy and JimNasium mostly. So, maybe that's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy looked unbelievably strong for a rookie. And I also remember that many of the board members had similar feelings. The only concern was his early injury problems and his durability.

I can't think of anyone that didn't think Tuck was gonna be a beast. That was clear early on. I think he may one day be as good as Willy Joe.........
