Sly GG!



Are you saying 'even a blind chicken finds a kernel every now and again'?

Wait. That's not too far from what happened, right? Except it was only 3 seasons (8-10) and you only made the playoffs 1 of those seasons - season 9 (although you did have a 1st round win that season!) But I think the point is you came in, we're so-so, then improved the next season and made the playoffs, showing some promise, then declined a lot, winning only 4 games, and then demoted. That's kind of a "flash-in-the-pan" - typical story - a lot of teams come up, show some promise, can't handle it and demote.

Tennessee on the other hand - you've got to hand it to 'em despite their argumentative owner - has gotten better every season in the Pros, starting at 4 wins, then 6, then 8, then 10 last season including their playoff win. That's not such a usual story and shows a lot more determination and perseverance than the typical "flash-in-the-pan" team. They've also got a gold trophy, which IMHO gives them the right to talk smack to teams that never even got to a League Championship game.

As far as I'm concerned if you demote from the Pros, then you can talk smack to someone who has never been here, but you're not on the same status as teams that managed to stick around, playing at the highest level without needing to demote. You come back and you're a rookie Pro owner all over again, because after all it's six seasons later and you're certainly not going to impress anyone with your 4 wins in season 10, or even worse, have to go back seven seasons to season 9 which is the last time your team was any good in the Pros. You're telling me your team was a Pro playoff team, went down to the minors for 5 seasons, and in that time never even made it to a League Championship game? Yet you think you should have the same status as a team that's been playing at the Pro level for the last 5 seasons? And you want to criticize the Pro team for not making the playoffs more often in the Pros? While your team couldn't sweep a bunch of minor league teams? Really??? That's your argument!??


I have yet to talk smack on here, show me one post where I have, my single statement was one game does not make a team legit for an entire season.

I am not the one who used the argument that you have no valid opinion unless you have been in the Pro's for 4 or 5 seasons. I was unaware of these predetermined qualifications to have the ability to make a post of any value.

Yea, agreed. Whatever he's implying it doesn't sound very friendly to me! I don't think that people who actually know me, like people who have been on my team for awhile, would be amazed by my post, maybe only people who don't really know me that well but think they do!

Ok a good point on the last part, but I would definitely put all of the following in the "smack talk" category - they're definitely edgy and include language which derides the other team/coach. So I don't think you can play the Bart Simpson "I didn't do it!" card now!

if you think 1 game validates your team than you are mistaken.

Ahh, the light shines now, had I hung in Pro's to be a consistent mediocre team that only made the playoffs 1 out of those 5 seasons I would have the right to talk smack like I know what I am doing.

No, what I'm saying is that's not the Sly I've seen on these forums... I'm impressed!

Jaxx is a good person.

Well what I think King picked up on and I did too is that we understand it's a compliment, at least, in a backhanded kind of way where you also imply that I'm normally not worthy of any compliments. Sort of like, if someone makes a great play on the football field, and you say, "he definitely doesn't suck as much as usual today!" or "well it's nice to see him help the team win for a change" or some other similar thing that both compliments and insults the person at the same time.

And that was in doubt when?

I apologize if that's how my comment was received; that was not my intention.

Actually my comment was more tongue in cheek and directed at an earlier comment made by a different poster. No biggie.
