      6
    • "Literally" (probably the most overused word in the English language)

Been thinking for awhile how every time someone is defending a player or prospect they inevitably describe him as a "kid." No one ever uses the word to denigrate a player. You never see: "The kid is a locker room cancer." Not sure why it annoys me, but it does. So what phrases/words are most overused in your opinion?

**** THIS IS A HARD ONE. 

I’m so conflicted at the moment.

 

PS.

Where is #JetUp? You must honor Kevinc or GTFO.

House rules.

Lol. It's multiple choice so no reason to be conflicted!

I don't see #JetUp a lot on here. Maybe "Can't Wait" would make sense.

And before I leave I also demand you put “ He has High Upside” and “Traits”. 

Or “He just needs a red shirt year”.

I considered "Blaming a player's terrible performance on lack of opportunity" but I think that's captured with "Weaponz"

The only one that really bothers me is the "Real fans" debate. 

It is March.  The season has been over for three months.  The new season will not get started for another 5+ months.  The draft is still 4 weeks away.  Yet, here we are, every day, talking about our Jets.  We are alll real fans.

Well yeah because you are talking up  Brady. When you are smashing Eli you go with the defense won  that game. It’s your thing and it’s cool. 

first off, thank you for thinking of me.  I am honored.

 

2nd, the Pats Ds have been incredibly overrated and the Giants Ds incredibly underrated b/c people just look at meaningless reg season rankings.  what NYGs Ds did in title games and SBs(along w/ the rest of the 07/11 postseasons) was amazing.  NE had 1 postseason where their D played like and it was the first for Brady back in 2001 BUT that D also became the first D EVER to blow a double digit 4th qtr lead in a SB(they blew a 14 pt lead) before Brady rescued them and 2 years later they would become the 2nd D ever to blow a double digit 4th qtr lead in a SB before again being rescued by Brady and the O.

NYG's D held the greatest QB of all time to 14 & 17 pts to beat them twice.  In this past SB Philly in 1 game(w/ a much higher ranked D) allowed 33.

Brady's Ds have allowed more PPG in the playoffs than the supposedly bad Indy/Den Ds that "held Peyton back".

My thing is trying to be as fair as possible even if the argument is painful.  the last thing I'd want to do is argue in favor of anything NE.
