One certainly gets a complete picture with 20 posts.

A player deserves a good ripping every once in a while. "An azzchewing a day, can prolong your life for miles and miles in everyway." I just coined that one.

I once saw Cox hit a nun in the mouth at a Starbucks just for farting.

There.

So, if you'd been paying attention during your reading, you would have noticed that it's a small vocal minority "hating" on each player, with an equally small but vocal minority defending him just as vigorously.

Further examination would reveal  that negative comments are frequently legitimate critiques of a player the poster likes.

Going to other messageboards would let you know the situation here is hardly unique.

There's a vanishing small percentage of people who "hate" any player on this board, most are obvious trolls.

Take Matt Ryan, for example- first glance would indicate that posters here really hate Ryan, until you realize that most of the negativity comes from 2-3 posters. If there's 150 post thread about Ryan, 75-100 of those posts are going to be negative and going to be from the same 2-3 posters.

The majority of posters think that Ryan is a pretty good QB who needs to take his game up a notch in the playoffs. Their posts get buried under a mountain of negativity or misinterpreted as hatred.

There's lots of good football discussion here, you just have to pay attention to find it.

Most of these posters would whine if you walked up and gave them $100.  They would say why wasn't it $500, I wish it was more or is that all you have?

They complain like little girls because that's all they know.  Most of us loyal fans are positive and root for the team.  They see their moaning and complaining as helpful and only trying to help the team.  Most of us who read their dribble take it for what it really is:  Ignorance.

Look up the word fan in dictionary.  Look up the the word admirer.  I am sure that I am an admirer and they are a fan of the Falcons.  

They will probably whine about this post. LMFAO

So correct me if I'm wrong sir, but are you saying that people that come on here and "complain" about the team based on playoff results as "ignorance"??

Fans complain when the team doesn't win. We've seen TD and Smitty take this team to a consistent winner in the regular season and wet the bed in the playoffs. All of us regardless of how we come across want the same thing. Winning cures all. Check the Patriots boards. They're complaining about their weak defense. The Packers fans are complaining about their defense not being as good as it should and could be. S.F. fans were complaining for years about getting rid of Alex Smith.

You can't honestly sit there and tell anyone that you're happy with the team the way it stands. I know there's something you wish the Falcons would do to improve the team regardless of whether it's realistic or not and whether you'd like to admit it or not. We saw what this team did last year in the playoffs and it was disgusting (albeit with porn stache running the D and that j*ck*ss running the O). I personally have confidence in our new coordinators, but Baker is a liability and we need to improve both lines. We have talent on this team, but Ryan needs time to get the ball downfield like we want, and we need a compliment to JA55 to help the pass rush. With Nolan's new scheme, hopefully our secondary will improve.

So with that said, if you'd like to tell me that i'm "ignorant" with addressing MY legitimate concerns for our team, then so be it

I felt that I needed to vent my disappointment in several players that let the fans, fellow players and fo down. I feel much better now that I blasted a handful of them. I'm ready to move on now and enjoy the results of the positive things that are going on behind the scenes. Only good things from me from here on out. RISE UP!

Nothing worong with contructive critisism, if tastefully and accurately presented. Some, imo, some just go overboard.
