Thanks Skins

[mc4dc]

Considering I am 32 years old, very far from a teenager, and have seen a few teams in my lifetime blow up and start over, it can't be much worse then this and the last few seasons have turned out for us. Granted we had a post season birth, but everyone knew we were not gonna win that first round game. Let me elaborate a little bit on what I meant exactly. Both Gibbs and Saunders should be gone next year. Campbell, well, not many will like it but here goes, the man does have a cannon of an arm, but that does no good when he's completing passes to the defense. I say hang on to him for a little bit until we can acquire a truly great QB, either in the draft or free agency. And it is not our record that bothers me, it is HOW we ended up with that record. Yes, I know there are highs and lows in a season, the Taylor situation being uncontrollable as it is, all season has been a low. Now to really get people mad at me, if Taylor was where he should have been, he would have been at least on the sidelines today. I mean, these guys make millions of dollars to play a game. Part of his responsibility to the owner, coaches, teammates, and fans is to behave in an appropriate manner, meaning abiding by ALL rules. Gibbs had no idea he had gone back to Fla, because he wasn't supposed to be there at the time. I am not faulting him for his demise, I'm just stating if he had done as he should have, he would be here today. I do feel for his family, and had a few rough moments myself as a lifelong Skins fan. But emotions do not change the fact of the matter. If you make that kind of money, you do as you are supposed to, not as you want.

Except of course we did win that game

Given up on Campbell already?

And then I read the rest of your post and realized that you're not going to be a very valuable member of this board with comments like that

[mc4dc]

It's a public forum, not everyone has to agree with every post on here, it's MY OPINION. Opinion meaning, what I think, I realize not everyone thinks the way I do, but more people then you realize have my exact sentiment.

To answer you question directly...


Given up on Campbell already?

Yes, in fact, I never agreed with the choice as Campbell for a starter when it happened. I do however realize we are working with what we have, I would just like to see us have better. With Snyder's deep pockets, we can and should have better.

I apologize if I offended anyone with my postings, but again, I am simply stating my opinion, backed by some facts.

You don't have to take every post personally.

The problem is your opinion is backed by a lot of errors. You say everyone knew we'd lose that first round playoff game, but then don't acknowledge that we did win that game.

You say Taylor was supposed to be at the game, but chose to ignore the rules and not go. He was injured, he didn't need to be at the game. He didn't break any rules by going home to his family.

[mc4dc]

An injury alone does not excuse for your TEAM responsibilities. The coach thought he was still in DC. He did not have permission to be in Florida, and as a result, brought on what happened, as unfortunate as it is.

Because my thoughts don't seem to agree with the majority of the posters here, I am the bad guy. Sorry, it does not work that way. Don't agree with me, that's you right. But don't just assume that because you don't agree, that it is wrong. It is not a matter of right or wrong, it is a matter of opinion. Had he had permission to be in Florida, my opinion might differ, but as it is, he didn't, and my opinion stands.

Dewd you threadjacked a Positive thread to slam YER opinion. Pay Attention BOY. Make a thread or find a thread that fits yer opinion and don't feel we need you to cram yer opinion down our throat in what was a Possitive thread.

First, if you are going to post to a public forum, at least TRY to make yourself look educated in the slightest. That aside..........

The thread is titled "Thanks Skins" My original post was basically asking thanks for what? So I am on the correct board for that post.

[mc4dc]

Harsh but honest. Let me guess, in relation to football, a full contact sport, I now have to tip toe around words and thoughts simply because there was a death on the roster?

1. I don't think this is a public forum... i think someone owns it. This isn't the public park... your taxes don't pay for it.

2. I explain exactly what I was thanking them for in my first post. Read it before you ask stupid questions and chime in with your negative ignorant opinion based on inaccuracies.

3. There were plenty of places people with the same feelings you were feeling were venting and I didn't have the energy for that kind of discussion, so I started one where I reflected upon my own feelings. I saw alot of raw emotion from these players today and to be honest I wouldn't have been at work. Tomorrow they go to bury a teammate. I wanted to express my gratitude for having the balls to go out and play a game today, because I guarantee this one hurt the team alot more than it fucking hurt you

... but maybe the team owes you an apology.

Tell you what... hold your fucking breath.

Go away. Way to F up what was meant to be a positive thread.

[mc4dc]

what was meant to be a positive thread? Thanks Skins?


Thanks for what?

Having a shi**y season, for giving many a game away, for getting our star player killed?

Ok then, Thanks, thanks for letting down a lifelong, born and bred skins fan. This is a low point for the team and fans as well, and if you cannot handle people expressing their honest opinion, maybe it is you who should not frequent this forum.

That's a little harsh, don't you think?

That's pretty offensive that you think that the team got Taylor killed. This has been an unbelievably trying month for the team, but I think that the least of their worries is that they let YOU down.

[GoSkins!]

I'm going to get back on track here...

Thanks Skins for putting together a positive game under such negative circumstances. While emotions seemed to carry the game early on, circumstances of the week seemed to take its toll down the stretch. I, for one, cannot blame the team if they collapse under the stress of Sean's death and the teams endless string of injuries. I cannot judge, because I am not there, but I don't believe I would be able to focus on football in meetings, in the film room, and sometimes even in a huddle at this point. Just do your best.

I'll be behind you.

Forever a skins fan!
