and if you are looking for topics in a lull to discuss besides a borderline NFL player/6th rounder there are plenty

1) Dunbar this is an absolutely amazing story that does not get nearly the amount of coverage it deserves
2) Position battles and potentially consequences for the losers Long/Lauvou Paul/V.Davis Burton/Ihech/Cravens
Dezhoer (sic)/ Toler Compton/Riley/Mason etc.
3) cap numbers AFTER some obvious and maybe not so obvious cuts
how much do we save this year and next if we cut Riley, Roberts, Lauvou, Toler
how much do we save next year if we next year we cut Hall, Riley (if he lasts), Pea, Licehnsteiger, Garcon/DJax leaves etc.
4) the hugggge glaring weakness I see going into the season RUNNING BACK because I for one am not high on Matt Jones and never really was

***Do we trade a conditional pick to KC for Knile Davis? DO THE DEAL etc. there are options

5) Depth at safety? I see plenty of depth at SS but what about FS? Does Blackmon take 50-50 reps at CB and FS because going into season with just Hall at FS is a recipe for disaster.
6) The alarming lack of athleticism of our draft picks.... combine doesnt mean everything but it also shouldnt be dismissed that Cravens is about as athletic as the overage offensive tackle...

plenty of intriguing topics

btw I dont think 767, arbusman, bovey, and banaman were all the same person.... just sayin ;)

also disagreeing does not equal trolling.... just saying

I didnt come here to just high five everyone and wank each other off.... Im a diehard skins fan and I bleed burgundy and gold and skepticism around this team is natural. This is classic Skins right here high hopes in offseason doesnt usually turn out well

its when there is a hopeless feeling in the air is usually when we pull off the 9-7 and 10-6 record like last year.

On a side note am I the only one who gets enraged when you see stupid and pointless power rankings put the RAIDERS ahead of the Skins?

Its the RAIDERS they havent had a winning season in 13+ years, LITERALLY and they are ranked higher in power rankings and superbowl odds? WTF. The RAIDERS are literally the Browns of the west coast. Look at win totals since 2000 they are literally neck and neck

Is there a difference between the "arbusman" (without a number) on ESPN and you, "arbusman1" (with the number)? If not, it's interesting you made this statement in the third person.

Are you serious? Worrying about ratings when you just stated that they are "stupid and pointless" WTF? BTW - the Raiders are actually not that bad of a team at this pt.

Your pt about high offseason hopes not turning out well is warranted. However - this is a different era than even two years ago. My take has always been that they are building a complete team with the major goal of being consistently competitive for many seasons - not just next season. Next year is kind of a crap shoot. Could go several ways, and I am alright with that.

I am not just blindly supporting these moves because they are for the Redskins. I am doing so because the team is now run by someone with a proven record who - until we see otherwise - knows a lot more than you or I (again - not saying you can't disagree with him but I will put my money on the guy with a track record). Also - again - numerous sources have stated that the Redskins had one of the better drafts in the NFL, and you appear to be about the only one who doesn't like Cravens (and bases most of your opinions strictly on measurables - there is much more to football than this).

IMO - no you didn't come in here to high five everyone nor to even have an educated discussion about the team. IMO you came in here to bitch about the Redskins and rile everyone up. Keep it at - I will enjoy it very much if/when the team proves you wrong in the years ahead.

He is a loon & he is trying to pretend to be even keeled so as to not totally blow his cover.

you guys wont see that . he will be shown the door if he goes down that road . its foolish to believe the names he mentioned are all one person and no one said that . i believe several people had multiple screen names on the espn board

as for topics you can open a thread and discuss anyone of those without me starting it or anyone else and you can disagree about anything you want but dont act like we are fools and dont know what trolling is

he came with the handle arbusman 1 so he knows about espn and he certainly is trying to get a rise out of us

i can give you enough rope to hang yourself but believe me the espn BS isnt going to happen here no matter how slick a troll thinks he is

Actually that's what we don't want to see. We were all tired of things the way they were when ESPN shut down. I came here because of the promise that it wouldn't be the same. Guys might argue their opinion and that is find as long as there is some sort of respect. I finished 5th grade many years ago and have no desire to return.

I understand dad. My reference was about other playing games in return. We all know that is a vicious cycle with no end. I am not concerned. You have been fair since we came here.

Word we have a great board. Good to be able to talk skins whenever I want considering I (and others I assume) don't live by any fellow fans. Some of the teams boards on here aren't like that.
