I Was Wrong When...

wilsowilso · 10-11-2007, 01:20 PM

I was wrong about Frost being a horrible punter(although I was right the next year in assuming aliens abducted him and did some kind of alien things to him that made him much much better).

I was wrong about our Oline and Joe Bugel. Man have they stepped up big this year.

but......I have never been wrong

I was wrong when:

-I said that LL was a waste of a pick and that Okoye would have been a better fit
-I said that we weren't going to have a pass rush
-I predicted that Michael Vick would someday take the Falcons to the Superbowl
-I predicted an 8-8 season finish (i hope at least that we exceed that)

I said Michael Boulware was going to be the best LB/S drafted in his class. In 2003, I said Ramsey would, eventually, be a Pro Bowler. I said Rod Gardner was a great #2.

I was once CONVINCED that Ramsey would be labeled "The Next Brett Favre" by his 3rd season. In fact, I remember that an announcer once said that Ramsey reminded him of Favre and I went into the old "I told you so..." routine for my friends. I was wrong.

Side note, does anyone want to buy a Ramsey replica jersey?

I did, but I turned it into a half-shirt last year for Halloween. I was a Redskins-Redneck, with the half-shirt, crazy pants, and a mullet wig.

I was sooo wrong when I said Joey Harrington still had a future as a starter in the NFL.

*I was wrong when I said we should get rid of Brunell this year. QBs are dropping like flies this year and he's a great insurance policy.

*I was wrong about GW not adjusting his scheme to maximize his players. The game plan v. Detroit was brilliant and he made Martz look very average.

*I was wrong about the Chargers being the most talented team in the NFL. I still think they are talented, but obviously Marty is a helluva coach.

*I was wrong about some of you on Warpath. Some of you are smarter than I thought, and then some of you...oh boy, some of you....

I was wrong when I trusted SmootSmack, apparently.

I..guess....I....was...wrrrrr...NAH! The 724 ain't nevah intentionally typed something incorrectly.

When I said Dallas would win 4 games (obviously)
When I said Marc Bulger would win the MVP award
When I said Byron Leftwich would win comeback player of the year (Altrhough in my defense, the Jacksonville QB is having one hell of a season)
When I took Frank Gore with the 4th overall pick in one of my fantasy leagues
When I took Cedric Benson with the 12 overall pick in the Warpath FF League
I think thats about it....

Predictions are by nature faulty, but those who go out on a limb and make an educated gamble will win my, and most others respect, even if they are wrong once for every time they are right. People who want to follow the norm and be wrong all the time can get a job working for Sports Illustrated. Then I can make fun of them.

I was wrong when I first got on the site and thought that GTripp had no idea what he was talking about.

I was wrong when I thought Smootsmack was asian. (Dont know why)

I was wrong when I put my moms watch in the dish washer to see if it was water proof.

And I was wrong when I picked the Panthers to meet the Redskins in the NFC championship game. (Panthers are not getting there.)

You were wrong? But that means intangible qualities don't exist because that can't be measured on a graph...

Well if you want to get technical about it from an anthropological strandpoint then that is true.
