For the longest time, I've dreaded guys like Darius Leonard and Derrick Henry, simply because they were rivals. Now, Trevor Lawrence is joining the group - so why not drop association and get into what makes these guys great? Not just AFCS, but everywhere? There *might* be a plan to start a ponzi scheme in this one, with @ramssuperbowl99@jrry32. More to come, but you basically know it's a Ponzi going into it, so that's not really illegal securities fraud... I cant jump on board with this. A good hero needs a heel. You have to have a bad guy. For me, thats easy. I hate the entire NFCE + the 9ers and steelers. If I had no team I wouldnt know who to hate. You could say Brady, but he went on Kimmel and was sweet as could be. Then rodgers went on Pats show and he is so loveable and charming. So what are you going to do? Hate the frog in Kansas? He is a texas boy and also really nice. All of these players have entered the frat of really enjoyable. Its not the days of Ray Lewis and Irvin, where they are obnoxious. But somebody has to play the role of villian. This is a fact of life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold on wait a minute the up front Ponzi scheme I'm all good with, but the brochure never said anything about rooting for Trevor Lawrence/Urban Meyer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you crap on him as a fan. Deservedly. I dont hate Jerry like you do, but I get it. Now lets put your thinking cap on. A guy who is crap at his job and wasted the most talented roster (2007) in maybe, just maybe, nfl history.... yet at the same time quads his net worth. He might have a secret we arent privy to. Before anyone shoots me, I admit that the roster is being super hyped. But there was legit multi people who should/are going to be HOF if we didnt hire wades dumbbutt.

Oh I never said anything about Meyer. I hope his appendix bursts. Trevor Lawrence? Yeah, I can like what he's doing. I think of it as another BoB/Watson arc...

Matts4313 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 While I am on it, I want to point out the reason I defend Jerry. When he said he would write a check for $250m if it would win the big game, I truly believe he means that. Does that make him a great owner and GM. No. Clearly not. But there is no doubt in my mind that he wants it just like we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is no doubt in my mind that he wants it just like we do. If he truly wanted it bad enough, at a certain point he would realize he is the one constant thing in the last 25+ years of this team failing to reach an NFC Championship appearance, let alone a Super Bowl. If he truly wanted it, he would put aside his ego and hire a real GM and step aside. But he won't. Because the franchise is profiting and he loves the spotlight. Ego/Money means more than winning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats where you are wrong. And I know you know this story. I literally went to dinner with McClay, Garrett and Rod. Will said he was offered the GM spot at Houston. Jerry matched it to keep him. Obvi also he was divorced and his kids lived in Dallas, but he wanted to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a really solid chance that after this crap ends that I will be back in houston for some fancy dinner. And I am going to invite you with the sole intent to tell you that you are wrong and it pains him at night to lose. Tell your dude its not a date, I am just taking out my bro to eat shrimp and get drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
