The Best QB EVER After 32 Starts Is...

[Danamal]

Shep,
You have a history and passion for QB's that can't be denied.
You did like Rogers from draft day and he has been successful and that's awesome.
It seems like your getting upset because people aren't giving you the respect you want because you called it and you can't understand why.
Maybe it is because you call out many QB's names akin to throwing shit at a wall and Rogers stuck.
You are a great writer and smart and it shouldn't take much for you to understand the reason people give you a hard time is because you act like you have never been wrong,always right and you fail to give respect to anyone else yet you demand it for yourself or feel the need to point it out just like the point of this thread.

Yeah I know I am not your favorite person so my words may find a deaf ear but when I joined tbb in 07 you were a much more fun poster to read from and didn't take yourself quite so seriously.
This is the first season in awhile were we can actually see the light and it should be fun so it would be really cool to see the old Shep come back and give good reads and enjoy what should be good times and not anger and in fighting.
Smile and laugh,lets have some fun and stop taking everything so serious,it's a Browns board dammit!

Good call on Rogers,not so much on Harrington!

Are they bringing those players up in 90% of their posts and constantly flagellating themselves over getting one right?

Okay but only if you go one month without posting about 1: Aaron Rodgers, 2: Colt McCoy sucking and 3: QB's in general. If you do that I think Masters and others agree, if you make that effort we'll make a effort not to respond to you. Deal?

KoK, go around the board, read my threads/posts on a bajillion other topics, then return with the apology. I'll wait, but try to hurry.

Danamal... c'mon. Seriously? I haven't been fun here? I don't even know what that means. We're having a blast. I just get really weary talking about me or what I post. It's absolutely ridiculous and nobody can possibly even inhale to being to try to consider to ponder denying that because it would sound so ridiculously retarded they'd immediately lose the will to live and begin a long, torturous run of therapy that would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Let's just get over it. Just get involved with the topic... or don't. Would that really be so bad?

KoK, why would anybody on a Browns board, NFL fans, go a month without talking QBs? Rounded up, that makes zero sense. But I'll go the month on Rodgers for you. The McCoy issue is too central to the long-term success of the Browns to totally skip.

[Shep]

BTW, I have some posts all over the board that I think you guys would like on a WIDE variety of topics. I never get any responses from KoK, Danamal, or Masters ABOUT FOOTBALL.

I think we should start there, because it's something we have in common: We all love football. I'm watching Grant-Fulsom with my son right now (and working), two great HS football teams in Sacramento, one ranked neck-and-neck in the state and nationally with his team (Westlake). That's how much I love football.

So let's just stick to that. No judging posts or people, because we're all smart enough to know we don't really know jack shit about each other. I guarantee you, you'd be STUNNED at how much you'd like guys you'd expect not to... and vice-versa. I've learned to stop guessing at what people are like based on their web personas.

Hell, half the badass tough talker types are 5'5" and pot bellied. It's the only place they can be tough.

The question to me is, why would anyone go looking for respect or props on a message board? We are all just a bunch of fans who come to a internet location to talk about the Browns and football. We are all people just givng our opinions. There are no "experts" here (outside of a couple of people who are pretty close to it). IMO, anyone who needs to go looking for respect, pats on the back, kuddo's, or affirmation on a message board probably needs to take a long look at themselves and their life.

Not only do they not bring up their "successful" predictions at least once a week, they don't start threads about the guy they got right. They also gladly take ribbing and even rib themselves about those they were wrong about. They are people who understand this is an internet message board and we are all just a bunch of FANS. They aren't looking to be someone special on an internet message board.

I already started moving back to not reading or responding to his posts.

Speaking of which, did I really just see calling out about "tough talkers" and their size, when just in another thread he was all "tough talker" calling Riffer son....good grief.

I agree. Totally. I think you know I'm not really in need of affirmation based on the fulfillments of family and career, but I suspect others do look to get attention and kudos on boards. I won't name anybody, but I've seen it.

However... I do think we all can agree that nobody wants to be picked at and scrutinized and stalked over and over and over.

We can start with this. Total agreement here.

Dude, c'mon. Nobody can be that full of shit so you have to be fronting. I didn't start up with Riff and you damn well know it. He wrote a fiercely douchey post to me and I told him I don't respond to being spoken to so disrespectfully. No good will ever come from it.

You know I'm never NOT going to stand up for myself when someone runs that childish nonsense my way. You wouldn't expect me to and you don't object to it.

You need to just stop, man. This is fucking absurd. I don't go after you, I don't judge or insult you, so this is about YOU, not me.

Just stop. If you really don't want to read me, don't. But stop writing a single syllable about me. There's no reason. It's about the Browns, as you like to point out.

There. Fixed.

Hey, I wanna delete all my posts in this thread after it left football. I don't want to take part in any discussions after they go personal... but the delete feature is missing. What gives?
