Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

I'd vote for all of the above if there was that option. I don't think I've posted much in the locker room at all these last few months because i'm tired out of all the "hot" topics. I feel like whatever happens is going to happen irregardless of all the banter that I may or may not disagree with so there's no point in arguing about it lol.

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

I vote for the unrealistic trade scenarios. To me thats the worst part of any message board and you see it all over NFL forums, not just ES, WP, and HTTR. You should see some of the wonderful offers for Cooley out there. People are so generously offering cast offs left and right and picks as high as the third round.

Madden is a great tool for learning some basics about football, especially to someone who's never seen the game before but sometimes it gets ridiculous when you consider the type of mindset it's brought to your average forum poster.

Touche'. Now THAT's funny. Great scene, great movie. :)

Unrealistic trade scenarios.

Seriously how do people just pull these made up, fantastic, trade projections? Trades in the NFL are way too quirky to just pull out of ones ass anyway.


The MO for trade speculation should just be, if you see an article/rumor then feel free to discuss it, otherwise keep your most recent Madden transactions to yourself.

See this is the type of crap I'm talking about. Found this on RI:

[quote]Each draft slot is assigned a value. #4 is worth Seattle's two 1st round picks. They want a QB-BRADFORD. They will trade with us to get #4. We take OT Okung and OG Mile Iupati with the 2 picks. We trade Cooley for a mid-high 1st rd pick and we draft OT Trent Williams for the R tackle spot. In free agency sign both RB Chester Taylor and Darren Sproles as the 3rd down back and we give Colt Brennan his chance. With our 2nd round pick, we take a center, Maurkice Pouncey Florida 6-5 318. 4th round, take a backup QB in case Colt doesn't fit. Trade Albert Haynesworth for SF two 1st rd picks and draft S Taylor Mays Southern Cal 6-3 230 4.45 plays like the great Sean Taylor #21 and OT Vladimir Ducasse Massachusetts 6-5 330 for rotation. To fill the hole left with Albert gone, sign free agent NT Vince Wilfork from the Patriots. Albert wasn't the player he should have been. There, with one draft, I have rebuilt this team to be a superbowl team. We end up with 5 first round picks. It's uncapped, we can spend anything we like!
One more thing-don't waste the #4 pick on a hit or miss QB! There is no Peyton Manning, Tom Brady or even dare I say it, Troy Aikman in this draft! Trade the pick and pic up our Oline!
Are you listening Shanny? This is what I would do if I were GM...

[quote]I can see the 'Skins drafting Clausen and making a trade to draft Golden Tate. Of course, if this were to happen they should have hired Charlie Wies to be their Offensive Coordinator.[/quote]

[quote]SS Reed Doughty, Reasonably RFA him or try and trade him, if you can't then you keep him. I like Doughty but we have 3 SS and no FS, we may as well try and move the guy who's on this list.[/quote]

You can't make this crap up.

I am one who could have easily have said all of the above also. I visit message boards and get the SSDD feeling then I have to check myself. If all I wanted was news then I could visit the official Redskins site, or visit ESPN, or the NFL network. Instead I visit sites like the WP in order to not only read the new news but to be able to comment on it. Thats what message boards are for.

JC- is good and servicable but we need a great QB which I have doubts JC can be.
CP- is a great RB, but age is catching up. Concussion.
CB- I like him and his cockyness, will he ever not be injured and become great?
Unis- Half the people want change, half don't. Whatever happens only half will be happy.
Unrealistic trades- Even though its tiring, People have come up with ideas I never would have thought of. Sometimes I laugh.

All in all I picked JC. After 6 yrs his same issues keep cropping up no matter the support around him or lack there of.

Holy shit @ that 2nd quote Dirtbag

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

QB talk is always expected, it's tiring but again, expected. By nature the position gets way too much hype and way too much blame.

The CP talk will go away if he produces.

What really grinds my gears though are the wacky trade scenarios. That one posted above by KurtShanaman is so freaking ridiculous and it's exactly what drives me right up the wall.

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

I went uniforms. Old school NFL franchises like the Redskins should not be making gimmicky uniform changes so the topic annoys me. The Redskins current uniform is perfection...i would rather deal with what's in the uniforms.

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

I'm sick of it all, but I cannot stop comming here even if only to read. Some days I actually feel myself getting dumber.

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

I really find it moronic and of “poor taste” to make fun or proclaim: “being tired” of redskin discussion on a Redskin DISCUSSION BOARD. This is the offseason discussion, what do you expect people to talk about? A lot of the trades and signings that some have proposed on this site in the past have came true.
As I remember it, some on this site didn't believe we would hire Shannahan, fire Vinny, bring Bruce Allen or that we could even sign Haynesworth and keep Hall. All these things that happened where discussed on this site before it ever occurred. IMO most times on this site members undervalue the talent of our team and make it seem that we are 2 steps from the Rams or the Browns, NOT TRUE. I understand people can be cynical, but please remember the reason that this site was created… To give intelligent fans the opportunity to share their dreams, passions and have discussion about the team they love.
A lot of us on here have been on this site for a long time and understandably after a while it may become annoying to see the same topics and same ideas all the time; however I ask please to let people dream. Let’s talk Redskins, not troll around in Football related discussions looking to highjack the discussion into talks about nothing and bashing other members. Take that to the off-topic section.
In answer to the discussion topic I am tired of threads that are made as passive aggressive cynical jokes about other member’s legitimate Football discussion. I come on this site to talk Redskins football, not about other members of the message board. No one's opinion on here is better or worse than others.

Step off my soap box…

I think someone missed the point here...or got up on the wrong side of the bed...and fell out the window

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

or had a little Bailey's in the coffee

Re: CRedskinsRule presents: What WP frequently discussed topic have you had enough of?
 

i see diehard's point - people are complaining about redskins football discussions on a redskins fan forum. but i think there comes a time when we all have already said everything there is to say on a particular subject then .....

... we bring in a new HC or have the 4th overall pick in the draft or any other change in the redskins landscape which digs up the JC talk.

what will shanny think of JC? will JC fit in his scheme? should we draft o line or qb with the 4th? is bradford or clausen a franchsie qb? is JC a franchise qb? can we win with JC and a better o line? etc . . . .

just the nature of the beast imo. and JC could have done more to silence the same criticism we hear year after year. (jk)
