    I was using your logic. The implication is correct. Dame didn't request a trade two years ago under Olshey. He did so now because he doesn't have enough veterans. So I didn't move the goalposts since the subject is his trade request.

    What method? Getting veterans is what got them in this situation? What? Doesn't make any sense.

    I didn't want to trade our picks and there's no evidence that this is why Dame asked out. Try to stay on topic.

    Someone has to challenge him for lawn maintenance superiority.

    The summer weather is awful. Probably the worst in the USA.

    Agreed... Not one ounce of hate will come from me, that's for sure.

    I have been to Florida several times. It's hot as hell, humid as fuck, and there are bugs that sounds like a Sikorsky Black Hawk Copter when it flies by your head. Did I mention the storms that blow cars across the road?

    Of course a few attractive people can always be viewed, dispersed in small numbers around the overtanned, retired New Yorkers. Let's not forget those bastions of character, Florida U, U of Miami, and the Dolphins.

    To each his or her own, but I wouldn't move to Florida, if you paid me. Ahhhh, I can just smell that State odor.....Banana Oil SPF70.....

    If we don't want their garbage then why would a 3rd team want MIA's garbage?

    He was also the shadow GM for the past 7-8 years. Do we really think there were many moves made by this franchise without his approval? Our performance is as much on him as it is the front office.

    Wonderful. Play internet tough guy because your logic didn't include any logic. I'm not a mod and I'm not reporting you for using that word. If the mods see it and you get banned, it's probably appropriate but it'll be because you lack self-control, not because someone wanted you off the board.

    Why does he not want to go to the Nets? Clowney and Claxon meet our goals. (Plus picks)
    We need them back involved

    Yeah, all those mountains they have for great hiking.

    Florida would be a nightmare for a lot of people from the Northwest.

    Keep moving those goalposts. At least you didn't use slurs in this reply. That's an improvement.

    Can you point me to the word he used that would merit conversation of punishment? Genuinely asking cause there's a lot of posts and I haven't seen it.

    The only jersey I own is a Zach Randolph jersey I got on clearance for 10 bucks, and I only got it to wear playing ball.
