2006 Point & Laugh at the taterskins thread

[Beermonkey]

Skins fans are rubbing their peckers raw this morning, as Cold Pizza has reported that there is a chance that they may be picking up Junior Seau. They've conveniently forgotten that Junior Seau hasn't played like Junior Seau in almost 5 years.

[skinsfan]OMFG!! We might sign Mean Joe Green!!This D-line is going to be f-ing unstoppable[/skinsfan]

[reese125]

The guy has played 15 games in 2 years..know when to hit the showers Junior. thats a Hugh Douglas in his last years signing right there--strictly for leadership and motivational purposes

[SD_Eagle5]

Junior started going downhill his last few seasons in SD. Even the most idiotic Chargers fan could see his decline, the ones who wanted him around only wanted him for sentimental reasons.

[ice grillin you]

thats a classic lil danni fantasy football move

Sadly, he'd still be better than Dhani Jones.

a seemingly rational skins fans stands up to the blind homerism and unquestioned stupidity that pollutes ES:

I'm a taterskins fan. I love taterskins fans. I love this message board. However, I'm continually amazed at many poster's inability to see players for what they were. Everyone who ever wore a Skins uniform does not need to be propped up above Joe Montana, Jim Brown, and Jerry Rice.

This nonsense is usually seen in questions about which taterskins should be in the HOF. I've seen questions about Doug Williams, Stephen Davis, Ernest Byner, Gerald Riggs, and even Chris Cooley. Seriously, 99% of the players mentioned for the HOF are totally mind-boggling.

Please stop. It's embarrassing. I encourage everyone to take a look at the current HOFers and learn about what they did and who they were.

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest. Like I said, I love this board. However, some of the stuff I read here is amazing. I believe the more knowledgeable our fans become about the game (and not just the Skins), the better off we'll all be.

Leave the crappy analysis and inflated egos to the Cowgirls fans. That is all. Carry on.

and then he shut down by a factless response from spin master and Art Jr, bubba:

Outside of Monk, Jacoby, Grimm, and Green (sometimes Clark)... few if any former taterskins are mentioned as HOF worthy, and only Monk is debated regularly here. I'm not sure where your point of contention comes from.... but I never have heard or read any Skins fans harping for any other former Skins, except those few mentioned

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Art probably smells like stale Fritos.

[Sgt PSN]

Art probably smells like stale Fritos.

I seriously doubt that Fritos last long enough to get stale around Art. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I did not say he smells that way because of eating Fritos.

This is in response to a Skins fan who shook up a grape soda and opened it near a guy with a TO jersey on so it would stain his jersey. The guy had his daughter with him (the Skins fan) too.

After several "you sound like an Eagles fan" lines, I found this GEM;

I say ...really bad sportsmanship. How sad.

Coach Gibbs looks for players of great character...let's give him fans of great character!

To answer the original question...

Would Coach Gibbs EVER do such an act that shows a complete lack of sportsmanship? The answer is "NEVER!"

Next time you are about to do something like that, ask yourself..."What Would Joe Do?

Then you won't have to come here and ask us if you were wrong

Oh. My. God.

[General_Failure]

T-shirts should be available any day now.

[MDS]

What the hell is wrong with these people?

[General_Failure]

They got touched on the head by the hot frying pan angel.

[Sgt PSN]

They need to get touched by a nuclear warhead angel.

Hello.

My name is Art. I have something in common with Tarhog, Henry, TK-IV II I, Om, Die Hard and Blade. I have the ability to ban you. I don't always like to do it. I usually reserve banning for people who simply tell lies. But, I'm turning over a new leaf.

I'm not going to post for a whole week. During that week ALL I'm going to do is read. And ban people. Over and over and over. By the dozens. Who am I going to ban you ask? Well, if you ask you are probably one of them.

In addition to my finger on the ban button, Tarhog, Henry, TK-IV II I, Om, Die Hard and Blade will be enjoying the same freedom. In the last year we've increased from 1,000 registered members to over 7,000. It's time to sort the wheat from the chaff.

There will be temporary bans and permanent bans. Which will depend on us.

So, after the time stamp on this post, here are some precious rules to adhere to.

If you post a fake post on this board, you are no longer getting the clown. You're getting banned. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. If you have 9,000 posts on this board and you post a fake post, you're gone. If you have 1 post on this board, you're gone. Bye.

It could be a temporary ban, or, it could be that Die Hard hasn't gotten laid in a week and has decided to take out his sexual frustrations on you. I use Die Hard as an example because the rest of us never have to go a week without, and Die Hard will protest that he doesn't either, so, it's funny .

I don't like to play the administrative heavy here. I like to debate and insult and argue with all of you. But, for the next week, I'm not saying a word except "That's _____" with a count as I remove many of you from the equation.

When the week is done if this board is back to normal, well, I'll say hi again and turn the moderating back to you. You've had fair warning.

Art.

I don't even know where to begin.
