Wait, you lost me. They both fit.

In fact, the 2 criteria i gave, he used 1 of each. I thought that was a good one.

I'd say #2 is very questionable but I'm not a judge and my vote doesn't count. :lol:

So, you're saying Urban Meyer taking a photo with wrestlers is indeed worth an entire article? :lol:

Wow, I thought I'd get dinged for article #1. Never thought anyone would think the Urban story newsworthy.

Actually, now that I think about it...maybe Corey is losing it. 8-)

Your first post on Kapernick is covered in the 1st statement by AJ.

Your 2nd on Urban Meyer is covered by my 2nd one. Both fit perfectly:

Also acceptable is something no one cares about AND is completely uninteresting, like the story about Tebow deciding to not playiin a pro-am golf tourney.

2 totally different threads IMO.

I thought the whole basis of the thread was your reply, not AJs.

I am not totally lost here as Dan saw it as well and I respect Dan's opinions. :)

Ratings off by 23 percent to lowest premiere since season one.
Because if we are going by AJ's reply, 75% of this thread wouldnt qualify.

No one gives a shit about that story yet we dinged Coug.

Now that I think about it, 75% of this thread no one has a clue of whats going on. :lol:

But those articles are probably important, for lack of a better term, to an entire segment of people, just not us.

An entire article about Tebow playing on a pro am or urban taking a picture with wrestlers, even Ohio state die hards probably don't care.

Also, my very first post in this thread was the Urlacher one, so it's been established since the beginning that the no shit stuff was acceptable.

This is very important we get this straightened out!!!

All I'm saying is this thread is all about "no shit Dumbass" type news stories.

If we are going all gray with aj's reply we gotta look at ourselves in the mirror and realize some people have been falsely accosted.

That's all I'm saying here. :)

Whether he wants the job or not, Wasted has been appointed #2 in charge around here. I trust him fully to make correct decisions after the run he's had the past couple of days in here.

Tells you how bad things have gotten in here when a dude who has consistently failed in this thread is making decisions.

Only a matter of time before the real Wasted comes back around. :D
