Brunell Starting

Right on. Somehow the same "standards" that one poster said Ramsey failed to meet don't apply to Brunell. Somehow, the same short leash that Ramsey has been on since Gibbs came back don't apply to Brunell either.

For the life of me, I don't understand what Gibbs sees in Brunell (what has MB actually done to make us a success?) that justifies his continued confidence in him. Then again, who in their right mind could justify a $42M contract for Brunell?

Why does Brunell get to mess up through 9 games and Ramsey gets only 1 quarter?

None of this makes any sense.

Possibly because you are not privvy to the information and knowledge that Coach Gibbs and staff have.

we all saw what happened on the field last season. and we've all seen how little preseason success applies to the regular season.

Preseason for Ramsey looked exactly like the regular season. If Ramsey couldn't be efficient with "vanilla playcalling" why should anybody be surprised he was benched in week one?

So why didn't all of that "information and knowledge" translate to even a semi-respectable record last year?

You're being difficult, right. Ok then, here we go.

You've been in your job for a while, you know the people you work with and the actual tasks that you perform. When you change companies, as sometimes happens, you have a different set of co-workers and a simialr but differing set of tasks. Would you go in and perform at the same level immediately or would it take you a while to get there?

Big corporations have an expected learning curve even for experienced people.

Last year was like that.

How many games have we lost so far this year? None.

How many of your fellow coven members have as many years 'On the broom' as you?

Excuse me - "Coven members on the broom?" And you're one of the forums moderators? An apology is in order, but I'm sure it won't be forthcoming.

It's a sign of something (I have too much class to be more specific) when someone has to stoop to "not so veiled" personal attacks in order to make their point.

I always wondered why there are so few female posters to this forum. Now, I'm beginning to understand why.

Wow, are you easily upset?

Merely a joke, as you were being obtuse I was trying for levity. Ah well.

Dry your eyes, I apologize wholeheartely and really sincerely for suggesting anyone would want you in their coven.

If you can't take a little jibe maybe you could find a crochet forum, I'm sure their chat will be far less hostile.


Oh, and regarding female posters in sports forums, my girlfriend tells me she has much better ways of spending her time.

Exactly! From what I have heard the fly on the wall is saying Brunell secretly pulled Gibbs aside and told him Ramsey stinks and to play him.

Brunell is a jedi you know.

So you're saying you speak 'Fly'?

Of all the weeks we don't need a QB controversy or division within the ranks of blindly obedient fans this was the one.
