Chichevache posted:"Rape is boring", said forums poster zurreco. At least capitalize my name, drat. Also, yeah, rape is boring because everyone agrees it is 100% bad and wrong and there isn't really a lot of space for fun debate.

Who was the Jaguars manager that said "We've all been accused of something"? Cuz that fits right in with the spirit.

Or the prospect that said he had Brady's intellect in Cam Newton's body. That is pretty douchey.

Yeah that quote was way out of context and not an actual quote.

Sataere posted:Yeah, but I assumed when you responded you knew it was Kizer. Weird that everyone says this. The direct quote wasn't "I have Cam's body and Brady's brain" so yeah, that's wrong. But he definitely said while talking about himself "I do have the ability to be the greatest quarterback to ever play. Imagine taking (Tom) Brady’s intellect and Brady’s preparation and putting it on a guy with Cam Newton’s body." Later on he backpedaled after everyone in the world picked that up (because it's frankly insane) and said he aspired to become that and knows he isn't there yet. But this isn't some case where USA Today left out important poo poo, he just said something arrogant and dumb.

Can we just make a catch-all entry for Kaepernick's Critics? Also SPANOS. Oh, and Jed York. Because.

His quote says "Imagine taking Brady's intellect and Brady's preperation and putting it in a guy with Cam Newton's body. Why can't I be the greatest? The only thing stopping me from it is me. That's what's driving me now." It was taken out of context because the last two sentences change the entire meaning of the quote. Without it, you get the impression that he thinks he already is those things. With them, you have a goal he is striving for. I think it's pretty clear what he meant in the original quote with the other two sentences, but it doesn't make as good a story. Flikken posted:I knew it was Kizer. I was making a joke at my teams expense. And I was trying to do a terrible job of playing off that! Clearly I succeeded!

The only thing stopping me from it is me. That's what's driving me now." That was in the original article. quote:“No one else can do what I can do. And I’ve truly figured out in this (draft) process, if I can maximize all my potential in every aspect of the game – this is bold – I do have the ability to be the greatest quarterback to ever play. Imagine taking (Tom) Brady’s intellect and Brady’s preparation and putting it on a guy with Cam Newton’s body. Why can’t I be the greatest? The only thing stopping me from it is me. That’s what’s driving me now.” No one else can do what I do does just as much to push it back to he's insanely arrogant. Which isn't necessarily a bad trait for a quarterback prospect to have, but he still deserves to be made fun of for that until he does something. I'm just not seeing the context helping out much here.

A guy trying to play perhaps the most difficult position in modern sports has an unnaturally high belief in himself? Weird, can't believe he didn't admit that he's gonna be mediocre to bad and there's nothing he can do to change that.

Grittybeard posted:That was in the original article. I get what you are saying, but even with context, he's talking about his overall potential. Moreover, he has a point. How many guys are physically capable of doing what he does? Is it really arrogant if it's true? He's talking about maximizing the god given talent he has. He's not assuming he is the greatest ever. He's saying if he puts in the work, he could be the greatest ever. I mean, he probably is a tool, but not for that quote. I will give you he said it in the douchiest manner possible.

I've already seen a mock 2018 draft out there, Darnold to the Browns.
