    I can respect that position. Maybe hash it out in private messages so it doesn't ruin the conversation

    I object. Stroud is better than them all. He's nor perfect, but he's closer than the rest overall.

    Not sure but if you have been a poster on this site for any length of time, you know his history. And I try to brushoff his rhetoric but at some point you have to combat what is being thrown at you. If not, that type of idiocy will continue.

    Once again, my apologies

    I haven't. I just joined so I'm not familiar with anyone's posting history. So, if this is typical behavior for him then that's disappointing. People definitely shouldn't be tossing around the racist label with no merit. That's one of the worst things you can be called so I understand your frustration there and don't blame you for being upset. I'd just probably ignore him going forward. He's not worth the effort if that's how he acts.

    No apology necessary. I was unfamiliar with the situation so I appreciate you filling me in

    Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. The weird thing is it has absolutely nothing to do with the Texans.

    You do realize you brought those 3 up right? You specifically pointed out those 3 to say Stroud is better than currently. Not Lamar or Tua

    That poster has posted multiple racist posts over the years through multiple accounts. He likes to play the victim. He’s being railed in the BBS for it.
    I have no respect for him at all, he’s the worst type of person. Claims to be godly but has no moral compass.

    Again, he isn’t filling you in. I’m one of the few that calls him and a couple other posters out. He likes to lie about people to justify his hatred.

    Sorry, Stroud isn’t better than Allen or Burrow right now. Herbert I could listen to but it’s close.

    If he continues what he’s doing, CJ will join that upper tier echelon. To be fair, I wouldn’t trade CJ for any of the QBs above, because he has the potential to be as good or better IF he continues his play

    I obviously have no familiarity with the situation. I just think it's probably something that should just be dropped by both sides. There's really nothing more to say and neither of you are changing the others mind or coming to any sort of compromise

    I’ll drop it for the sake of the subforum. Put him back in ignore.
    But I’m not going to let him spew his garbage and lie about me either.

    Ok. I understand and get there are always two sides. Not saying who is right or who is wrong because I don't know your history. Only thing I can say is it's pointless for you guys to continue. Let's talk Texans

    That's the mature way of handling it. Have you reported it to the mods? Maybe they can step in and get a resolution. I don't know how that system works here but with racist stuff I'd imagine it would be handled quickly

    Mods don’t do anything here unless it’s extremely overt unfortunately. Subtle bigotry, specially towards Asian and whites is looked over often.
    I’ve called a few of them out on their posts and their response is to lie that I only want white QBs or in HLM case that I’m an alcoholic.

    To be fair, I hated Stroud predraft. I wanted Bryce, then Levis and AR if we went QB.

    That's disappointing. Really weird on the alcoholic part. Is there some history there on something you posted? That's a very random and strange accusation.

    I liked Stroud but I watched him play a lot. I definitely didn't know he would be this good but I'm happy he is. I knew Bryce was too small. I wanted Anderson but we have both but it worked out for us

    Stroud and friends have already beaten Burrow and friends head to head at their place. The ONLY way to say they're better is to use prior years production when C J was at Ohio St. Keenan Allen is 5-7, not 7-5.

    Anderson was my first pick, but I knew we were going QB. Young was the only guy I wanted at 2 if it was a QB.
    Obviously I was extremely wrong, gladly.

    I posted drunk one time with Buck going back and forth. That’s it, that’s the history.
    We both apologized and moved on.

    HLM is a troll. Him and a couple others.

    Scarface is actually not a terrible poster but he has his biases. But he’s usually fair. Also usually wrong and will defend himself without backing down

    Yes, but if we use one game or single season numbers or matchups to gauge rankings it will always vary.
    Burrow and Allen have performed at MVP levels both in season and post season. Universally thought of as top 3 QBs.

    By your logic, Jordan Love, Jared Goff and Jalen Hurts are better than Mahomes.

    We all miss on picks sometimes. Not really a big deal. Better to be wrong when it works out in your teams favor.

    Gotcha.

    So far the trolls that have been told to me are DaDakota (which is crazy considering how many posts and longevity he has), Bobbythegreat and Sam Fisher. I'll add HLM to the list. I just have no interest interacting with trolls.

    That's good to know. I've only seen a few of his posts but he didn't seem like a troll.
