Joe Banner Is The Prince Of Darkness

[Sgt PSN]

then they should have had a fight in the sandbox like any irresponsible, immature kid would do. 

[ice grillin you]

lol that misses the whole point romey...no one is killing banner for not paying the 8 million...they are killing him for trying to settle the whole deal for 1 million via a hypothetical back alley deal with john street and literally thinking that it was legit and that he could get away with it...

it would one of the fuinniest things ever if it wasnt so pathetic

[Rome]

So you're ripping him for trying to go through the back door to settle a debt? 

[ice grillin you]

ha...the back door....more like the sewer

and no im ripping him for actually going public on radio and tv with that "deal" and honestly believing all the team owed was one million

if he had crawled around in the mud with street trying to slither his way out of what he truly owed and it didnt work and he went home quietly that would be one thing...but he really thought in heart a hypothetical hand shake deal with one of the most corrupt politicians in city history (and thats a mouthful) would actually have legs and get him out of paying is the biggest most pathetic POS weak ass crock of shtein ive ever heard

this is all really about banners over the top smugness and the fact that he thinks hes above and beyond anyone or anything and that he cant be touched...sure there are people everyday who steal much more money than what banner was trying to get away with but who else on the planet would come up with that excuse to get out of paying AND think it would fly....i contend no one

[Rome]

Banner's a douche.  No doubt. 

I can't fault him for doing what I would do if I were in his place, though.  My hypocrisy extends only so far, dookie.

[rjs246]

Your hypocrisy knows no bounds.

[Sgt PSN]

how many more val kilmer quotes can we fit into this thread? 

[SD_Eagle5]

Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?

[rjs246]

You're dangerous. Chomp.

[Sgt PSN]

You're dangerous. Chomp.

excellent

[SunMo]

the chomp threw me off, because that's not really the noise he makes, but that's hard to duplicate in text

[Sgt PSN]

i don't think he really makes any noise at all with it.  he tosses some peanuts or something in his mouth, says his line and then does this over exaggerated chewing motion.  without that chomp, the viewer would just think that he's a straight and narrow pilot who flies by the book.  but with the chomp, you say "oh.....he's a fleshpop."

so really banner inc was bitching about two million dollars...because the supposed phantom street deal would have had the eagles paying 1 million to the city in the end

No, Banner was bitching about the fact that the amount that the city owed the Eagles was not factored in and Nutter wanted him to "pay up" the full 8 million.

nutter wanted him to pay 8 mil because thats what they owed the city in that particular transaction...what the eagles owed the city had nothing to do with the pre season game...each issue was a seperate entity...it wasnt like nutter was saying pay the 8 mil and we still arent paying you for the preseason game...he wanted banner inc to pay the city what they owed and then let the courts decide the amount that the city owed the eagles for the cancelled game

not how it works...if the eagles paid what they owed, then they had no leverage with the city to try and work something out for the canceled game.  you never pay a debt to somebody if you think they owe you something, it's stupid. 

That's the smartest thing sunmo's ever said. imo, he's 100% right. But igy's hate for Banner and the Eagles FO in general gives him tunnel vision. Most all of us are the same to a lesser extent. Banner's a money grubbin' bitch,  and business is business.. But...who here, if they were running a multi million dollar business wouldn't want someone like him running it?
