hey brother,
A couple of points:
-I felt bad for Brady as well, but to me the joke was the Dolphins; I think they will be regretting that pick for some time (not just that they didn't take BQ, but there were some other guys they could have taken well before TG2);
-As tough as it was to see BQ go through that, there were a few positives that came from it: he showed all of the haters his stoicism - he acted with class and dignity once again; he did see the Browns give up ALOT to get him; and he got the a-hole fans to cheer him when he was drafted.
exquisitely said! I couldn't agree more with both of these points.
I double pumped my fists and let out a large sigh of relief when the Dolphins passed on Quinn. As a man without a professional football team to cheer for, this draft held the future of my professional football rooting interest. Where Brady went is the team that would have my loyalty as far as the NFL goes. And I could NOT see myself supporting those teal and orange queers.
WTF was up w/ the idiots booing at the top of the draft (when the 5 high profile guys were featured)?
And, were they also booing Vick when he was introduced for the VT segment? That was what it sounded like, but nothing was said on NFL Network. If so, despite the stuff HE's done, it was a tribute to the victims of a terrible tragedy; if anyone was booing that is VERY SICK.
Let me preface what I am about to say by noting that not all New Yorkers are bad people. Unfortunately this will piss off a few NY residents that exist on this board and all I can say is "if it doesn't apply to you, then just ignore it..."
With that said, I was born and raised in New York (Long Island to be exact) and I am here to tell you, New Yorkers, by and large, are the biggest waste of fresh air on the planet. I moved to Tennessee 6 years ago and I can safely say I will NEVER go back with the exception of visiting my family that remains there. And honestly, even that task is done begrudgingly be cause the unfortunate fact is that my family, for as much as I have to accept them because they are my flesh and blood, are also annoying and abrasive New York A-holes!
I'm not surprised they booed Brady in the beginning of the draft. they also booed Jamarcus and I even heard a few booes for Frank Beamer and Bruce Smith when they came out on stage to discuss the VT tragedy. That's the kind of people most New Yorkers are. They are loud mouth morons. Booing Beamer and Bruce Smith and something as tragic as the Virginia Tech killings..... what a joke. The only time something is "sacred" to New Yorkers is when it directly affects them. Which is why they would go to the ends of the Earth to ridicule somebody who booed them for the 9-11 tragedy. But Virginia Tech didn;t affect them so they can be callous and abrasive in true NY fashion.
Screw NY.
