    Genuinely sorry my post came across that way. I was grinning when I typed, it and generally just cutting up.

    I was attempting to point out that we could take anyone from that draft who looks good and insert his name there.

    Seriously wasn't upset. I wasn't even trying to push your buttons. Just cutting up. My bad.

    Yes, but no one had him in their top 5.

    No, my point was you can put *any* name from that draft that looks good now into the "the debate is now _____/williams" statement and they're all disingenuous. And I picked a second rounder just to be silly.

    I'm not a "homer", either; I've predicted a manhandling by the t*** this weekend. And no, your joining the discussion doesn't "wad my panties"; you're just not that important to me.

    again, jay cutler was projected by some as the best qb in the draft, considering what we gave up the very next year to sign one, he's very relevant.

    The entire discussion is irrelevant. Again, I can point to any number of players who weren't drafted #1 and who turned out great. Three years later, to arbitrarily shift the "Texans should've drafted ______ instead of MW" debate to some other player because everybody's first two darlings haven't quite panned out is the very definition of disingenuous.

    edit: i guess since you've made all kind of assumptions about my comment, you were thinking about me

    I've said nothing uncalm whatsoever. Look, if you want a fight go look in a mirror or hit the restroom. I'm not game for it. Have fun arguing with yourself.

    You've called my post disingenous, and you told me to move the hell on already and then you accuse of trying to pump up my darling.

    but you aren't looking to argue or fight LOL


    I love when posters used this tactic, hey I replyed in a confrontational manner, but I'm above this and not looking to fight

    ummkay

    edit: and btw, I was just giving Jay cutler some props as one of the best players out of that draft because he had a great first two weeks. no hidden agenda

    Kind of like when posters use the "panties in a wad" tactic and accuse people of being overly upset when in reality they have no real concrete evidence whatsoever as to what state of mind a person was in when they posted an argument.

    whatever,

    comments like "move the hell on already" don't have any bearing on state of mind.

    ummmkay

    and lastly, if he was so upset about the retread topic, why didn't he tell the threadstarter to "move the hell on"

    How many apologies do you want, pgabriel?
    That first reply of mine *did* come across confrontational--when it was not meant to be. I apologized. Do you want flowers, too?

    no, i would just like you to stop accusing me of having an anti mario agenda, which you did after you apologized. that's my only point, you don't have to apologize or send me flowers, just stop reading so much into my posts. like I said, i was just giving cutler some respect since he was pretty much the player of the week and he was in that draft. that's all.

    I did no such thing. "because everybody's first two darlings haven't quite panned out" was a reference to the entire nation's droolfest over two other players--it was in no wise a personal cut against you. I was responding to your statement that the debate is now Cutler vs. Williams, and that is all.

    If you read anything else into that statement, I'm sorry. It wasn't there. Seriously, I'm too tired this week to be picking fights with strangers on the Internet.

    I know I've given you a hard time about VY before, but that just wasn't the intent this time. If I remember correctly, you've given Mario props before for his good performance, so it would be silly of me to accuse you of some agenda.

    Seriously, the delusional UT fans are the only fans in the world who still think Vince wasn't a complete bust. Even tit fans have figured it out.

    Yes, I know he was an alternate for the Pro Bowl 2 years ago who got lucky when someone else got injured.

    You said it. :D

    On VY, if he doesn't bounce back and show some serious snap THIS season, people who feel he's a bust have a legitimate point. I loved him at UT and wanted Vince to succeed in the NFL, but it doesn't look good right now.
