We just hired the two best COs available on both sides of the ball after doubling last years win total.

Shocking, considering the way the majority around here speaks, you'd think we had gone 10-6 the past 3 seasons, instead of winning 10 out of 48 games.

Move the goalposts much?

You know damn well what I meant by that. We brought in 45+ new players and not one of them could be considered a playmaker, or core player. Though someone will surely try to argue that Chambers is a playmaker.

Quit being disingenuous.

LMAO.

It's cool. Don't be upset at others for noting the hypocrisy.

Christ, can you read?

I JUST got done pointing out that I'm happy with the Weis hire, and content with the Crennel hire. And said so when the topic first came up.

Anyone have any smart questions they'd like to ask?

I've got no problem with you, but it does seem as though you follow the horsemen around, and go " Yeah!!"

4 horsemen, and a pony rider lol.

LOL LOL..Gee thank you for making me feel stupid:rolleyes:

There apparently were some talks about a contract extension for DE Richard Seymour during the season, but the Raiders were unable to get close to serious negotiations, and observers in Oakland say it's clear that Seymour wants to play for a different team in 2010. He's said to be very aware that he'll receive the franchise tag this offseason if no long-term deal is worked out.

Improvement in an NFL team ... lasting improvement, that is ... not improvement dictated by fluke plays or easy schedules ... but real, systemic, enduring improvement doesn't happen overnight, Mr. OnTheWarpath58.

Other than their extraordinary rudeness to other posters, I think this is the main issue I have with the Haters. They seem to believe that it is possible to turn a franchise that is this freaking bad around in a short time ... it isn't possible.

When going from 2 total wins to 4.... and watching the way they stumbled through those 4 wins...

Yeah, I'd say that qualifies as "jack shit" IMO... especially when the overall improvement of the team, outside of the W-L record, doesn't indicate an upwards trend.

That would suck for him if he is stuck there.

Just reminding you. Because you, along with the rest of the horsemen will spend 10 seconds talking about the positives, and the other 23 hrs, 59min, and 50 seconds of the day crying like bitches about what you believe are the negatives, and everyone else is sick of reading the same pissing and moaning.

That's bullshit, and you know it.

No one here was expecting this team to go 10-6. What would have been nice are some flashes and the building of a foundation.

Aside from Charles, Dorsey, Flower, and DJ (all leftovers, FWIW) who flashed this year?

What makes people believe, aside from hope, that our 60 million dollar QB and our 60 million dollar DE are foundational players?

No, it wouldn't.

As people who have met me can attest, I'm not a fan of stupidity from behind a keyboard, or in person.

For the most part, the people who get "insulted" have brought it on themselves by saying something epically stupid, or are using hope and faith as the foundation of their argument.

Example: I disagree with Deez and Pestilence on occasion, but we respect each other's opinions because we're all using facts, stats and evidence to support our case.

If you want to blame me for anything, blame me for being intolerable of people that can't construct a valid, thoughtful argument backed by evidence other than excuses or blind faith.

In that case, guilty as charged.

You're absolutely right.

I hardly ever offer my own opinions. Long history of this on this site.
