"We need to do more in free agency" is turned into "people claim we never use free agency"

"Auden Tate is not similar to Armon Binns" is turned into "Auden Tate is a superstar"

"Bobby Hart is not a good starting OT" is turned into "Bobby Hart is the worst OL in the league"

etc., etc., etc.


I find people who do this usually do it only because they can't win an debate using the actual arguments made, so they try to paint the other as completely irrational.

My question is why does everyone keep falling for it?
