Hoping that players on your team fail no matter the progress they make tends to color peoples' outlook of your knowledge. Plus, you can't win a popularity contest when nobody likes you.
I never once hoped a player on the team failed. Not once.... That's a blatant lie. Now, do I think Revis is a very good player? NO, I don't... but I'd love him TO BE. As for winning the popularity contest, check out who won in 2005...
It was, and if you noticed, I didn't log in much last year either, but believe it or not taking care of a < 1 yr old is easier... That, and with them being 10-6, there was more incentive to try to talk Jets...
You know, I wondered about that last night but didn't have any real time to post about that. You account for not winning it the past 2 years by saying your kids kept you away, but I think it has less to do with the knowledge you so graciously bestow upon the board (yes, that was sarcasm) than the way you presented yourself in '05 compared to now. Yes, you did a lot of cap research and helped a lot of people on the board understand where we were, and that's good stuff, but it doesn't account for the lapse in dickheadedness. I think that was the same year that JetFanMack won his Mod position in that once-only poll thread. It was almost like you were trying to behave yourself or something. Well at least until Petrozza told you in that thread (in response to a post you made telling people how deserving of the Mod position you were) that he knew something about you and basically let you know it would never happen. All this time I had thought it was because you had trolled the board under a different nick or something, but that idea never seemed right to me; especially since Petro would probably have banned you the moment he found out. Last night when I read your post it occurred to me that you are (or were) probably a prominent poster on JI.com, maybe even a Moderator, somebody that Soothsayer could have asked to try REALLY HARD to get a Mod position on the board. Because that guy is truly that much of a dipshit. This is now the scenario that makes the most sense to me.
Now that's funny. Me on JetsInsider... . heheheh I was one of the first banned on JetsInsider. Let's leave it at that.
Like I said, it's just a scenario... but it does make me wonder what exactly Petro meant in that post.
BS... you were clearly bothered winning most annoying last year... and you didn't put it in your title until someone called you on it after you said you would.... as soon as it appeared you disappeared...
