Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

If you're going to start a thread about a trade, at least know what the fuck you're talking about.

I don't have a problem with people not understanding the salary cap, but if you're going to clutter the board with trade ideas, then understanding the cap should be mandatory.

Study the fuck up.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

If they wanted the trade, they would find a way to do it. The Raiders made the Patriots absorb Moss's cap space.

I think morons like you, that use profanity the way you do, should not be suspended for a while. Thats just me.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

[quote=T.O.Killa;309477]I understand Springs not being happy. Taylor has done nothing, but cause problems. He took bad angles and got beat many times, last year. To top it all off, he is now disrupting the whole team. Supposedly, even the coaches are afraid to say anything negative to him, on the practice field. He should be busting his ass now so he can get that big contract next year.[/quote]

Stop, with every post you annoy me more and more. You obviously know nothing about the game of football, first of all hes our best defensive player and hes 24 years old, who will replace him? We have absolutely no need for Briggs, you dont even know how good he is until he gets away from Chicago, much in the same way as Jeremiah Trotter, remember that disaster. So cut it out, hes not disrupting the team, Gibbs made the workouts voluntary, if he wants to complain about people not showing up, then he should have made the workouts mandatory. I mean its the offseason, this is there time off from work, I dont blame them for not showing up, if i was on vacation and my boss called me to come back to work, I would be pissed.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

Listen, TO Killa, I'll man up and apologize for the profanity and whatnot, because that was me clearly violating the forum's etiquette.

But man, your thread is just so off base. I really think people should refrain from starting threads regarding trades unless they really know what they're talking about. These threads clutter the board, and this is supposed to be a site for discussion for the "knowledgeable fan." You clearly need work on the salary cap stuff. We've already restructured a bunch of players, including Renaldo Wynn. There simply aren't enough players to cut in order to clear the space. The Raiders/Patriots deal with Moss is a totally different and irrelevant situation; the Raiders and Patriots do not have their contracts structured like we do.

So sorry for the profanity, and for calling you names, and all that crap. But my opinion of you stands; you don't know what you're talking about, and you shouldn't have started this thread.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

[quote=Schneed10;309479]Goddammit, this is the fucking Warpath. We're supposed to be smarter than this.

People here should not be starting threads saying we should trade Sean Taylor for Lance Briggs. They should know that makes no football sense, first and foremost. And secondly, they should know that's it's impossible from a salary cap standpoint.

And you should know how to fucking spell.

Furthermore, people here at the Warpath should be above throwing ignorant and racially charged terms around, no matter the circumstances.

If you're guilty of any of these things, go the fuck away. Go to ES. The Warpath is too good for you.

Goddammit I wish I was a mod, I'd lay the biggest beating on you idiots. You fuckers are ruining this place.

Well what would you say?

Most people on this forum don't want to read some rant of F bombs and profanity. There are much better ways to get a point across, if I couldn't do any better than that, I wouldn't comment at all. Have some respect for other members!

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

Hey, I am irritated with Taylor. Our team was 5-11, we don't need more BS. As for cluttering the boards, I personally have not seen enough on the boards, lately. At least we all had an opinion, and it generated some excitement. I know Joe Gibbs, he does not take this sort of thing lately. If he pushes it to far, he will never play for him again. At that point, he will have to be traded. Sorry, if I offended anyone.

How did this thread make it this long. The guy suggests trading Taylor for Briggs and then talks about a D end. Talk about ADD, he couldn't even maintain the same thought throughout a sentence.

As far as Schneeds rant. Isn't it hypocritical to state that this site is a step above others and criticize others posts for being below standard and then drop about 20 f-bombs? Chill out.

Btw. It appears that I am on the same boat as every columnist at the Post regarding Taylor's situation.

I hope the Warpath is ready for "I told you so"...

Let's be easy slugger. Shneed has given a great deal to this site. He lost his cool for a second, but I'm one to speak for him and say that he didn't go postal. He apologized, and in my opinon he's forgiven. This is the first I've seen him ever lost any kind of composure.

Your not the moral hierarchy of the situation. You've lost your cool before, and you're no one to judge.

Yeah, your're probable right about the Taylor contract. Kudos to you. I've been right before, and so have many others, we don't go out of our way to wave the "I'm right" flag around. But props to you. Congrats. Enjoy your glory.

Uh, i think u meant LIGHTLY, gibbs doesn't take this sort of thing lightly. If that was your point it is a semi-valid one. The Gibbs-Taylor friction has been well-documented since Gibb's took over. Basically Gibbs' only ultimatum to the team has been not to embarrass the group as a whole. Now while I do love Taylor, he has broken this rule repeatedly and handled himself in a very UN-redskinlike way. From the gun charges to the numerous fines AND the spitting incident, the guy's behavior is just like his play...with total reckless abandon. This OTA situation specifically may not be anything, but the overall issue is that he and the team are constantly bumping heads, the latest of which is a money thing. I honestly think that the best way to get through to him is through Snyder. Give him a big paycheck with many provisions for behavior and attendance. U know, make it so that if he wants to see that money he will have to be on his best behavior.

Schneed, i feel where u are coming from, though i don't condone ur temporary lapse in judgment to drop those F-bombs.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

ridiculous....i would take one sean taylor over 10 lance briggs. briggs is only as good as the people around him.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

Taylor is the best defensive player we have. This is the dumbest idea ever.

Yeah, to all those getting on me regarding the profanity, I feel where you're coming from, and I've already laid down a sincere apology to TO Killa (go back and read post 51). I don't feel the need to apologize again, it's already been said, I'm just going to get back to keeping my cool like I generally have around here for two plus years now.

This is a great site because over the years, members have taken it upon themselves to make this a site for educated discussion. I think we can all agree that we enjoy valid threads that make us think about the team and also serve to educate. I think most of us here would prefer that kind of thread over [B]impossible[/B] trade proposals.

I think I've pretty much said my peace on the subject and am ready to let it drop. But collectively, let's not lay it all on the mods to keep this place a haven for quality discussion. Let's take it upon ourselves to have [B]knowledgeable[/B] discussions.

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

crackers

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

are you serious? LB's are a dime a dozen..while i was all over the draft trade rumor involving Briggs, this idea is complete craziness. no way you give up one of the top 3 or 5 safeties in the league for a LB. who ever did that should be fired immediately

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

wow what a horrible sugestion!

Re: What if we traded Taylo for Briggs.
 

I just took one look at the thread title and knew this wasn't going to be a very bright idea. Dude, I understand we all have our own opinions about our Redskins players, but Taylor has so far proved to be a bigger asset to us than a liability. Sure, he been caught out of position a few times, and has drawn a few senseless personal foul penalties, but he has also made some great plays for us as well. To me, giving up Taylor would be about as smart as trading Campbell for Jeff George.

I was not judging anybody. I just told him to calm down.

Actually, I like the fire. I get bent out of shape too. When you are coming off a 5-11 season people should be pissed off. I would rather see people get fired up than read, "Joe Gibbs is the best. He will save us. If Joe said it, it must be true. The team is perfect now". blah blah blah

Much of the ill feeling and harshness could have been spared in this thread had we just resisted the urge to comment PERIOD. I don't feel the need to comment on every thread someone post just to have something to say. I realized this one was not going anywhere from the beginning. Much of the clutter would not be once the senseless posters realize they will be no response. I've been here a long time but feel the need to start very few threads because most of the topics worth discussung are covered in previous, or already existing threads.

My point is honestly there isnt much you can do about it. If you have been a member to another forum out there, this kinda stuff normally happens, and it is hot for about a week then it dies off(unless someone brings it up again a year later). There is always a hero who comes by and tells everyone to change their ways and stop posting bullshit, but it never changes.

You cant do anything about it, and usually what happens here is TMC, AMD or I come by a dumb thread and start saying random stuff and it dies out on its own. You cant preach about not posting when you are posting to make that point. Plus how many people will actually listen? People rarely change and there will always be a constant supply of noobs on this site, so this kinda crap will never end either.

Just have to get use to it, and learn to laugh about it without trying to set guidelines which are pointless.
