Patrick Smith: We Are Up Ourselves!

[BACCS]

What a bullshit article from a bullshit journo. Collingwood aren't exactly a favourite team of mine, but I sure do respect them for how good they are, and they can be as arrogant as they like.

The boys are going to appear on an upcoming episode of "Neighbours."

More hubris!!!

How could Eddie and Mick let this happen? So much arrogance!

Haha, what is the deal behind this? Surprised I haven't heard about it more in the media.

Hope you don't mind me intruding here. Wouldn't take anything Fatprick Smith has to say seriously, he is a waste of oxygen. From memory, he said the same thing in 2008/09 regarding Geelong. BTW, didn't he jump ship from Essendon after they sacked Matty Knights?
IMO any reigning premier has the right to be a little cocky until the following September. Don't particularly like Collingwood myself, but I respect your right to be a little arrogant and don't have a problem with it.

LOL very funny handypoint.

PS after reading the meaning behind your username recently in that Nest thread, I noticed you got a couple of mentions in the Pies/Swans game near the end last week.

Well played!

Thanks HappyChappy. It's a fine line being a successful team and with that, confident, without appearing arrogant in the eyes of the folk who happen not to support you, or worse, who can't stand seeing that team successful.

Someone as experienced as Patrick Smith, you would have hoped would be above potting cheap easy ( lazy) shots like that.

He is capable of writing very thoughtful and intelligent articles, but that was not an example.

So is this chap, given enough time:

LOL, well lately I'd agree..

I could not help noticing that an anagram of Neighbours is "Hubris Gone". Is Harold still alive and/or on the show? Maybe they're hoping he can rid the boys of their hubrisitis.

How did this post go unnoticed?

I gave mdc some kudos for another hubris related gem in a different thread but thought I'd better not do the same this time around. Thought it might be seen as a bit too hubristic to double up.

But just between you and me I loved it.

Patrick Smith thinks he is a respectable journalist. Hubris.

 

[samdapie32]

And now on KB's show on SEN he's patting himself on the back for the article and going on about how he "inspired" Collingwood to win because they "responded" to the article, but then going on about "oh Hawthorn didn't have a gameplan Collingwood just had to go out and play".....please. And NOW he's going on about TENSION because of the Malthouse Buckley thing! WOW! SHUT UP PATRICK, for the love of God, you're an embarrassment. Thank you.

Where was this article last year when Maxwell came out at the START of the year and claimed we'd win the flag?

 

[76woodenspooners]

Surprised he hasn't cited our anthem ("...for the premiership's a cakewalk ...") as star witness for the prosecution of our hubris.

 

[soreplums]

he is just a bitter old man

 

[Ed D]

I personally couldn't care. It makes more of a comment about Patrick Smith than it does about the Pies.

ive waited all my life to be arrogant about my side, and now i am. i dont think tooves as a hubris bone in his body just for the record
