Sports & Politics This section is for all political sports talk. Regrettably we feel that in some instances there is no way to eliminate politics from football, basketball, and baseball hobbytalk. Do you pretend nothing is happening with the Warriors, Steelers, A's, etc? This section is for all political sports discussion. However, it is for civil discussion only. No insults aimed at members, political parties, or politicians will be tolerated. There is no warning. If you cannot be civil, you will lose your posting privileges on this site.

Kap would be a good pickup for Baltimore, would be fun to watch him play in the NFL again, and it would jump his cards up big time too.

Aah gotcha. Then that whole possible PBM stuff was just BS huh? Because if I was a PBM, the higher ups would know that already. So, another way for them to treat me like crap over differing opinions. It's getting ridiculous.

Actually a lot of PBMs start multiple accounts, so if banned they can come back without anyone knowing. They usually do IP address checks to make sure but there are ways around that too. Some guys keep coming back and back and back. They just love this place

Why is the question

If I ever get banned? I'm done. I'm too old for another account. I probably wouldn't even know how to get one

I can argue with people on the Browns/Cavs/Tribe boards

Why? This is the single most important thing in my life. If they take this away, I would do anything to get back here. I mean anything

I'll say it again, having an opinion that cannot be adequately defended with logic beyond some non-sequitor stats means you're a sophist, ergo, you're not speaking with any reason on a topic, which in turn means you're more of a zealot than informed enough to have an opinion in the classic sense. This isn't an attack, it's an observation.

I watch film on a lot of these guys, Kaepernick is unemployed because most teams in the NFL don't run the scheme he was the most successful in (read option was here and gone in the NFL as a staple offense because the QB's who can run it the best were getting battered enough to not be effective), he holds the ball too long and he is still too indecisive as a decision maker, to add insult to injury, he likes attention that is too much bad PR for his talent to justify his employment.

RGIII is unemployed because he can't read the field and is built like a fiddle. He's so waify that he cannot take the abuse that NFL QB's need to, especially when they spend the resources necessary to retain NFL talent. He'd be better served playing in Canada.

So yes, if people are disagreeing with you, they might be right. Defend yourself with more data than ESPN's ridiculous QBR stat, TD:INT ratio or something so intangible like "leadership" or "chemistry" or whatever faux buzzword media people glom onto something that isn't quantifiable and maybe, just maybe, people will believe what you have to say.

I don't need people to believe me. People can debate, and do it all the time, respectfully. For some reason, it's not possible in this forum. People can be respectful, you all are just choosing not to be. I've given my reasonings and if you don't like them then just agree to disagree. It's what I do, no reason why others can't.

Looks like Baltimore is going with an arena league qb over Kaep.

I understand that college is completely and utterly different from the pros, but I still think he can perform at that level in the pros if given a real chance.
I feel the same way, just about McCarron who was a Heisman finalist in 2013 (finished 2nd behind Winston) after winning his 2nd Title of his back to back BCS National Championship Game wins.

College Stats for McCarron:

Year / Games / Cmp / Att / Pct / Yds / TD / Int / Rate
2012 / 14 / 211 / 314 / 67.2 / 2933 / 30 / 3 / 175.3
2013 / 13 / 226 / 336 / 67.3 / 3063 / 28 / 7 / 167.2

I wouldn't say it's over Kaep. It means that they really believe Flacco will be fine in a week's time and just need an arm to throw the ball around in camp for the time being.

Enough special for you to keep arguing and acting like you are picked on though.

Just relax and enjoy the good times here.
