Brandon Lloyd is not a bust!

wbecker999... I never, ever ever use this phrase. I think's it's horrible. I think it lowers the level of decency on the board. I think it's pretty nerdy as well.

However,

you just got PWNED!

that's a lie and compeltely untrue. you called me out for "not having any insight" (which you have yet to provide), and YOU made up that retarded argument so YOU could use it as a straw man. (i said one good catch doesn't cancel the fact that he goes mia for entire games at a time. if you can't see how warped you're making that, you really need to go back and try to read more carefully or get some help). it's total BS that you keep trying to put those words in my mouth when i NEVER SAID ANYTHING REMOTELY LIKE THAT. then you only use that one BS argument which YOU MADE UP AND EXISTS ONLY IN YOUR HEAD and ignore all the other points that were brought up.

that's doing nothing to raise the level of debate... in fact, you've pretty much refused to debate anything since i have yet to see a response to any of the points that have been mentioned or anything insightful that could possibly prove he's not a bust. if anything, you've been actively trying to avoid or lower the level of debate. oh yeah, and then you play off some stupid victim routine.

That's frustrating.

*worst stats for any starting WR in the super bowl era - no response.

*his ypc is NOT NEAR the best in the league like you said - no response.

*he's made multiple spats on the sidelines, a bad history in SF, and andre carter (when asked about lloyd's character) basically said "no comment" - you're only response is to cut him some slack, even though he's shown no improvement and refuses to accept blame for anything that goes wrong (and even said he sees absolutely no reason to ever change that kind of attitude).

*he's never had a 1,000 yard season, and the 49ers definitely didn't think he was worth keeping around at the vet min - no response

*goes mia for games - your response - what's backing that up - my response - look at the stats and box scores, it's pretty obvious, or watch the games.
"Like you went to a game and watched him and never got separation."
- like you went and saw him open by 20 yards every play.
that's another bullshit strawman and an amazing appearance of the "i'm right cause i said so" argument yet again. but that's useless cause there's no proof at all for what your saying or anything that rebuffs those stats. moss and cooley and even el produced just fine, so what?, was lloyd the victim of a vast right wing conspiracy? it makes no sense - he was even on the field for more snaps than el as a WR.

*plenty of good WRs put up stats with crappy QBs (in response to your "well, it's campbell's fault for not being peyton argument). check joe horn, check randy moss, check boldin and fitzgerald, check torry holt with a 3rd string QB, and i'm sure there's tons of other examples. - no response

if you're going "to raise the level of debate" how about responding to criticism of your position instead of shadowboxing strawmen and playing the victim?

i'm still waiting for that "insightful" reply.


Here's some insight.

You have issues

Maybe some anger management will help.

How about some Midal or pamprin?

GET SOME HELP WITH TUNNEL VISION WHILE YOUR SEEING YOUR SHRINK.

ALLOW SOMEONE ELSE'S PERSPECTIVE TO ENTER YOUR MIND INSTEAD OF TAKING OFFENSE TO EVERYTHING AND THEN POPPING OFF ABOUT IT

Chill fellas, the Sheriff is reachin' for his billyclub (yes, referring to myself in the third-person qualifies me for douchebagdom).

see, how insightful. again, you're proving yourself worthless and avoiding the issues. ad hominem attacks don't count as worthwhile responses to criticism.

and again, YOU'RE the one with tunnel vision that refuses to see another perspective. i've laid out why i have my opinion, and you've done (and continue to do) nothing to change anyone's mind. if the best response you have to logical arguments is throwing a tatrum, maybe you should take you're own advice and try that midal you've suggested.

just more hypocrisy from wbecker. better luck next time.


btw, you asked for debate, and when someone brings up a point, being b*tchy doesn't really count as debating. If you think i'm taking offense to what you've posted, you're sorely mistaken, but, at the same time, i'm going to articulate a response when you say something that doesn't make ANY sense or start mis-quoting me on purpose.

oh yeah,, logical retort != (does not equal) popping off. It's too bad you can't tell the difference though.

There's no need to get dis-respectful. You were wrong, so how about instead of flipping out (all caps, even in part of your post, is obnoxious) why don't you man up and give a logical response.

You were all about elevated discourse earlier, so practice what you preach. I think that there are several good arguments as to why Brandon Lloyd is not a bust, use them!

Personally, I think the jury is still out on him. I think he has all the tell tale signs of a bust, but how much of a chance did he really get with Mark Brunell. He wasn't terrible in SF at all with Alex Smith, and it could be just him losing his composure towards the end of his tenure last season.

One thing he has to work on is maturity, and my post earlier in the thread highlighted that. If he can work on controlling his temper, playing for the team, he could be a very talented and productive WR.

The skills are there, he clearly has the ability to be a good WR. The question now is whether or not he has the desire. Only time will tell.

Now that's funny!

Hey That Guy- It looks like we both had a little tunnel vision. After reading back through the posts . I will admit the "Insight" comment was to offensive.
Apologies for that.

I started coming to this sight after I heard somebody on Tony Bruno in 2003 or 2004 (anyone know who that was?)promoting this sight.

I use this sight to get some insight since I live in Iowa I don't get all the local info.

I would rather talk about the topics than defend myself from personal attacks
I'm sure you would to.

Hey Rob are you sucking That Guys D**k ?
LOL J/K

Sorry I couldn't hold that one back

*worst stats for any starting WR in the super bowl era.



Ouch, i dub thee bust (so far).

I've read most of the members on this boards posts long enough to form an opinion about someone, and make a character call based on that. So I guess my biased defense of Thatguy stemmed from a few things...

1) He's a respectable poster
2) He was right in this particular case
3) I suck his dick

Getting back to the thread at hand. I think that there are two people in this world. Those who do, and those who talk about doing. As far as B-loyds production, yeah it was all talk and dodo (not so much). Let's hope he has a better season this year.
