2008 Point & Laugh at the skins thread

[SD_Eagle5]

Or the skins could just fork over the 20g and get some positive PR for it. 20g is like a fart to dannyboy

[General_Failure]

Positive PR isn't in their mission statement, I think.

To get out of the NNT group you must figure out which rule(s) you messed up and in which thread you started and PM a mod or send the staff an e-mail with the specific details of your goof(s) and your pledge to do better so we can know you have learned what your errors were and are less likely to repeat it (them)

So you have to write an essay PM to a mod and show them how you erred?

Good grief.

So here's the deal. Instead of responding to your Monday e-mail which I am getting to now on my lunch break as I normally would have, you can take a week on read-only to "share" less and "reflect" more on this exchange (do not PM us) and then when I remove the Read-Only next Wednesday you can come back and apologize to the staff if you want or not, but either way you can then follow the instructions exactly as described in the first post of this thread, starting from scratch, to get your thread-starting privileges reinstated.

High horse anyone?

This Jumbo guy must be a helluva cat to hang out with...

I happened to get home late (early) and found this trainwreck along with several complaints about it. Right now it looks like about 3-4 bans are possible but I don't feel like doing the all the "paper work." Some of ya better hope I still feel that way tomorrow.

From Matt Bowen's (ex taterskin player) blog...

unless you were a member of the 2003 Washington taterskins under Spurrier. He offered us a deal: beat the Bears in Chicago in week 16, and there would be no practice the following week. That's right, show up at the hotel on Saturday night and play the Eagles the next day. No preparation, game plans, nothing. I am not kidding you. What a deal!

We lost on a last second field goal....

Are they kidding about the "erring" thing?  Seriously, it's just a message board, Romes.

Just curl up and die already.

[General_Failure]

Not so fast now, I think they've got some good ideas there. We should explore them!

Every time you visit that site you allow yourself to become dumber. Just like CF, only more potent.

Damn, how good would it feel to bust this flag's nose open with a straight right?

so brandon lloyd has 2 TDs in 3 games with the Bears.  0 in his Skins career.

Jason Taylor out vs Dallas; consecutive game streak (since 1999) will end

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I saw this headline:

taterskins' Taylor won't play Sunday vs. Cowboys

The first thought into my head?
"Well, no shtein.  He's dead!"

[PhillyPhreak54]

In a thread crying because no Skins highlights were shown by Berman on the fastest three minutes clip;

i saw that too, i thought i missed the highlight....i think the nfl is blackballing the taterskins b/c of the "offensive" name

[MDS]

they sure as hell should be

[PhillyPhreak54]

I will begin this thread by first stating that Jason Taylor is a Hall Famer, and the taterskins chances of getting to the playoffs are exponentially increased with him in the lineup.

That being said, I feel like a Jason Taylor at 80% or lower would be a liability and I almost feel like a 100% JT would have been susceptible to some of the things that I see from the Cowboys. Meaning they would take advantage of his pass rush and aggressiveness.

The Cowboys are balanced, and have a big offensive line as everyone knows. I do not believe you can blitz them like Philadelphia did and win. At the same time, you can not sit back in a zone and allow Romo time to throw. Jason Taylor against those big tackles would have been tough. I am sure he would have won some of the battles, but he would have given up some big plays as well that have negated any positives that he might have provided.

The Giants stuffed the Cowboys with a great game from their front four. Sure we don't have the talent the Giants have on the line, but we do have the toughness. The best defense for the Cowboys is a flexible defense. I hope that the Cowboys relax and underestimate Chris Wilson, D. Evans, and E. James come Sunday. I think if we stay close our D line will dominate the fourth quarter (those 2 days have got to pay off). Now the Cowboys should have a tougher time game planning for who to double team on D. I am hoping that the other guys step up. We should be stouter against the run with Evans and I believe Chris Wilson is an X factor. And if they don't...we lost without one our best D-linemen no shame in that.

The timing for J. Taylor injury is good too, a win in Dallas would be tough with everyone healthy. So, why risk J. Taylor now? We will get them in a rematch.

We will see what happens, and maybe we get blown out...but I have a feeling this game will be closer than expected. I know this is overly optimistic, but I bleed burgundy and gold.
