I respect the career Thrash had, he was definitely a hard working over achiever. Just not in the pretty good category.

Santana Moss = pretty good.

Thrash = eh, good special teamer, hard worker, good locker room guy, ok at WR. Nothing to write home about.

Yea OK and Santana is better than pretty good. The boy can flat out ball. Geez

I see how you judge folk now. From your perspective you are right on the money

I'm curious if anyone knows about Potter signing. I assumed we are set with Forbath. Are we searching for a kicker who can do better kickoffs than Forbath and keep both kickers?

I think he's just a kick-off specialist.

Perhaps Shanahan will consider keeping both.

Forbath's kick-offs were definitely lacking, but that was his first full year doing it.

I remember reading an article, Forbath did say that he has been working on it through out the offseason. But yeah I think it's what Cult said, bringing someone in to give Forbath some break in camp and preseason sometimes. We will find out soon enough

I see it as more of an extra leg for the preseason, to not wear out Kai's leg

Is pretty good and pretty darn good the same thing? Because, I don't know, but adding that "darn" in there makes it kind of different.

But why are we still talking about this? It's James Thrash, for crying out loud

I didn't bring him back up. He was referenced as an answer to you over 31 bust out question. Randy Moss come to mind after sub par seasons with the Raiders. And yea pretty darn good and pretty good are one in the same just to clarify.

From What Does History Say About Investing in Receivers Entering Their 30s? | Bleacher Report below

Devery Henderson and Brian Hartline, all under 30, should get some play on the open market. While none of them is a true No. 1 wide receiver, they will produce at a higher level for a longer period of time than Jennings and Welker.

Now go argue with someone else. Like some nagging schoolgirl.

Nobody is nagging or arguing with you. Nor is anyone giggling at you.

If you can't have a discussion with someone that disagrees with you maybe a discussion board isn't for you.

No need to get so defensive when someone challenges your position. This is what we do around here.

Honest debate I love. Arguing because you are ill at me about previous Thrash talk and want to pick something else to argue about because of the poster is totally different. I guarantee that if you had said what I said you would have got no such response from Smoot or anyone else. Guaranteed.

It wasn't a "I don't think Henderson can get it done here" but more of an argument towards the poster than the topic. Let's be honest here and not hide behind "challenging your position" nonsense. When the debate is an honest one you will here no worrisome comments from me. Why would I get mad if someone doesn't think Henderson can get it done. Clearly I wouldn't. It's how it is said rather than what is said. If you don't like me then just say so and not hide behind if you challenge my position I get mad nonsense. It seems personal with you and Smoot. Not the topic.

Be honest and just kick me off the board rather than disingenuous debate. We know the score. We've been at it before. Not once have we ever agreed and I remember it being ugly before. So let's not say it is the topic anymore. Do what you must.

I don't like you. LOL.

No, really though, I sort of agree with you about James Thrash. He was a good receiver. Nowhere near HOF quality, but he had a respectable career.

I really have no idea what you're talking about.

Nothing about my posts with you have been personal. Before yesterday I really had no idea who you are. I don't keep score when it comes to discussions.

Feel free to leave if you want. Or just chill and don't take things so personal.

it's nothing personal from my end. I don't see how asking how many WRs really "bust out" is some sort of personal attack.

[SmootSmack]

Your example is Randy Moss? What exactly does "bust out" mean to you?

Make a significant contribution of course. Stop being so worrisome.
