Jerry Maguire Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Let's pick apart every second of the video, form some conspiracy theories, and convince ourselves of the worst.What a way to brighten our day and make us happy! Woohoo!! Really, what good does it do to be negative on the guy's second day on the job? Honestly, we don't know either way if it's going to work out, so we can choose to be negative, which is worthless, or be positive, which will make us feel a lot better...On second thought, I think I like what Thomas is saying. I like his philosophy and his approach. I'm going to stand behind him. I'm going to believe what he said and what Arthur said. I'm excited about this new partnership and think the Falcons are finally moving inthe right direction... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UGA Homers LOVE Van Gomer Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Oh I've got something...How can this guy be a good GM with THAT kind of facial hair?! He can't even grow a proper Fu-man-chu! How's he going to be able to determine what we need come April?!I thought that was about as relavent as guessing how good this guy will be as a GM based on his introductory press conference.You think we would have all learned a lesson last year when Petirno was introduced as the new HC.Actions speak louder than words. Let the man do some things before we start bashing him.And believe me... if I think he's making bad moves... I WILL bash him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can people be so negative? Geesh!!!!!i dont know but you guys should have been expecting this. no matter what this franchise does there will always be unhappy people. a couple of weeks someone on the board posted something that said "why does it matter who we pick? half of the people will complain anyway so get ready." and that person was right so dont waste your time with the negative posts and be like me....HAPPY WE HAVE A GM AND A PRETTY **** GOOD ONE AT THAT!

Julius Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 yeah stop being negative about dimitroff. he may have not have done anything as of yet but hes got a good resume. But seriously can you guys f**k off for a day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlfalcon78 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 People just aren't happy these days I guess.....we could have the Holy Trinity in the FO and people would still gripe.But I think we got an energetic GM looking to make his mark with 18 yrs of football experience. That coupled with some of his people on the pro-side and the right coach to buy into this philosphy, we may be able to build this team for the positive.

falcons4life Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I dont agree with alot of people, I am critical of alot of things but JEEEZ, this bashing/conspiracy theory/crybabying over TD is ridiculous.Are people so unhappy in their lives that they MUST dig and seek out negativity wherever they look?I wrote a post about Blank and how I though he was doing much better this year with his GM/Coach search over last years 6 day search which yielded Petrino.Lots of reads, no responses. Probably because it is positive and paints the owner and new GM in a positive light. Who wants to read that I guess.This is why the TV news is all BAD NEWS. People want crashes, misery and death.

People want crashes, misery and death.Very true.I have learned that outside events do not make us happy, rather happiness comes from within. It is a choice. There are always two ways to look at things, and I choose the one that will make me happy. When we do this, our lives are so much better.All of us have one thing in common: We LOVE THIS TEAM! Let's all be positive about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignorant_icarus Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I hope he turns this ship around. With his experience with college scouting, we could have one of the most exciting drafts in a while. I made one comment just busting balls that he sounded nervous. Nothing that says he's going to be a bad GM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xapno Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Good post. I think he's a good pick for GM... I'm optimistic about him and the '08 season.I still think he looks like George McFly from "Back to the Future"... but that's not a bad thing.

Did he HAVE to break in on the PC to "CLARIFY" who's doing what? **** No! The man cannot STFU!!You may think it's negative to bring that point up but it's so freaking obvious! If I was a Falcon fan I'd be estatic that you've got a possibly brilliant young GM with a lot of great ideas, but pissed as **** that you have Blank MAKING sure he let's EVERYONE know who's the boss.Your owner needs to find another toy to play with. Maybe one of you all can take him to a NASCAR Race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loozianafalcon Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Cush, you are right on!!I'll go ahead and say that once again, the stupidity of this board shows it's ugly colors. For a lot of people....damned if we do and damned if we don't. It's plain and simple stupidity, and in the immortal words of Ron White, "You can't fix stupid"!!Honestly, sometimes the negativity on these boards just eats me alive, and makes me really ponder what their homelife must be like. Shame on some of you!! We finally make a great move in hiring a young, enthusiastic, knowledgeable guy to be our new GM and all you can do is moan, cry, complain, whine, and be big freakin' babies!

Also being in a "negative" state, cause it's not allowing anything to pass (I'll avoid going into Boolean variables here). I could have probabaly just put 0, but that may have been more confusing.
