Since the Chism vs STO rivalry ended because the Cowboys are arse we have not had a proper NFC East Shit fight. Thankfully Washington had a decent season finally so Chad could pop his head up again and get in to it. The board has been lacking some proper shit talk for a while.

The shit-talking is fine when it's a couple of posts back and forth, it gets boring when it runs for pages and across multiple threads.

Don’t mind reading it but I save banter for people I know in a NFL Whatsapp group I am in. I had my account banned (yep was actually banned from the site) nearly ten years back for something pretty innocuous. That experience pretty much killed my desire to get involved in high jinks on here.

 

[Paul Kersey]

I never got as involved back then but the board felt like it was rocking about 10 years ago.

Don't even have Dallas fans around anymore to have fun with.

Nothing better than some fun with the divisional rivals.

Yeah not many active at the moment. Guess that’ll change once they start winning. Having looked at next year’s opponents I can say don’t hold your breath.

Don't think we'll see many back until Jerry's gone. But then his son will take over and I don't know if he's any better to be honest.

 

[Southerntakeover]

The primary change was us winning the Superbowl. At that point, what did Dallas fans really have over us? We've been so much more successful than them for an entire generation.

That's right, even Dallas fans have more sense than Chad.

 

[Chadwiko]

The arrogance is astounding.

 

[Jatz]

Ehh at least we've been relevant once this millennium.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

You are just not passionate about the Panthers at all. Just like your love for the Dees is all about your skiing mates and cheese platters.

Ive got up most Monday's between 3am and 5am to watch Carolina play over the past 6 years with no hope in sight, if that isnt passionate I dont know what is. I love the Panthers they just dont love me back.

I'd find it hard to believe you would have got banned for something innocuous on the NFL Board. You'd have had to have committed a hate crime to have GG actually use his mod powers on a user back then

Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story, I suppose.

This whole 'don't talk shit unless you're winning' ethos you try and push on to others would be a LOT more believable if you weren't a long-time troll who never abided by your own rules.

"What's that, you say?" You want some evidence?

Happy to oblige.

Cast your minds back to the end of the 2016 season.
Philadelphia finished last in the NFC East, had only won the division twice in the previous ten years, and hadn't won a playoff game in nearly a decade. So... by STO's own logic, they were not "successful".

Did he sit back meekly and refuse to participate in divisional rival banter and teasing?

Absolutely not.

He was smack bang in the middle of constant shitfights with Cowboys fans about their lack of playoff wins after winning the division that year, giving them non-stop shit. Here are just but a FEW examples of literally dozens and dozens of similar posts;







So please, spare me this high and mighty holier-than-thou act and stop getting your panties in a bunch whenever someone pokes fun at the Eagles.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Imagine spending the time going back that far, and the best you could do was prove my point. Dallas fans response at that time was to point out that we had never won a superbowl.

A response which our win the next year took away from them, and basically from that point on it was done.

For a guy who keeps weirdly claiming to have invented banter, you don't seem to have much of a clue how it works.

PS: the Eagles in 2017 had made a NFC Championship game in the decade preceding, and had four trips to the NFC Champs game and one Superbowl appearance in the last 16. They would win the Superbowl the next year. Your franchise has won one wild card game in the last two decades. Nothing alike.

 

[Southerntakeover]

I mean, far be it for me to tell an opposition fan how to banter, but if you were a Commanders fan who wanted to shit talk his betters surely you'd be basing it on having a better quarterback. At least there just might be something to that, and its a pretty solid basis for us to be long term concerned.

Just weirdly trying to pretend we haven't been more successful the last 25 years when its beyond argument is such a low value play.

Remove the corporate branding and you'd be forgiven for mistaking this sight for the arrival of an alien mothership with all the drone and orb activity over the USA lately.

Minnesota still paying for that 1991 World Series win. Greatest playoff series of all time, it has to be said.

Kirby Puckett was otherworldly in game 6, while game 7 was an instant classic.

Oooft, those receipts aren't even faded!

Imagine spending the time going back that far

Didn't take more than 30 seconds. All I had to do was search your name + January 2017 and I was flooded with options of you not living by your own rules.

For a guy who keeps weirdly claiming to have invented banter, you don't seem to have much of a clue how it works.

Straw man argument; never claimed that or anything like it.

Your franchise has won one wild card game in the last two decades. Nothing alike.

Again, you're arguing against points I never made.

My position from the start has quite simply been that division rivals can and should always shit talk each other, and their actual on-field success is irrelevant.

You tried to argue that only successful teams should shit talk other teams, so I showed examples of you not living by your own rules.

Plain and simple.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Except, as my last post demonstrated, we were a significantly more successful franchise in the years leading into 2017 than yours.

It's literally impossible to find me having talked shit in the equivalent circumstance as your garbage franchise. No playoff wins for 20 years. The soonest it could happen is, lets see, 2046. So check in then and I'll let you know.

And yeah, you have been claiming to have a trademark on banter. What's that 'this guy gets it' post about. Except, now you seem to think we're having a formal debate. Make up your mind which character you want to play putz.

 

[AmericanCrow]

I dont hate any team or any teams fans though I have noticed Eagles fans have a very soft underbelly when you bring them up

I love everyone as well

Definitely not a pretty dome

I feel I'm passionate about the Jets but even I have my limits. I tend to watch Jets games in full but on delay (no way I'm giving up sleep for this abomination of a team) until the season is done (which could be anywhere from halftime in week 1 up to Thanksgiving generally). After that I usually just watch redzone and catch up on replays of other games.

The last Jets game I watched this season was vs the Cards on 11th November. After that I was done and have only caught highlights of games for the rest of the season.

Agree with your earlier post though, I'm a fan of the sport as much as I am a fan of the Jets which keeps me coming back. I just wish the Jets would give me something one season to make it that much more enjoyable/exciting.

Mustvw been the AFL or AFL team board

Never banned anyone myself
