So maybe Suggs can fix that torn Achilles by threatening to pour bleach on it and spilling some on it in the process.  Worked the first time!

Here's one of the best views I have seen of the incident....and I gather there were others....and we don't see what immediately led to the take down , as they both go out of the frame.

Maybe it's time for the guy to learn the rules of the game that he gets paid tens of millions of dollars to play.

Maybe a little facemask, you can't see, but he didn't punch him in the throat. He's got his hands in his face. Looks pretty mutual too.

So there goes "he punched me in the throat!!"

You said that Andy needs to learn how to play the game.

I was just showing that, thus far, it looks like he HAS learned to play the game. There isn't any other proof either positive or negative to determine whether he has "learned to play the game" better yet.

I don't know how else to explain this one, it's pretty simple to figure out.

 I mean if you want to get into the minutia of things.  I would argue that a guy like Ben with the success that he has had in the regular and post season over his career has a pretty firm grasp of the rules, and that one slip is not indicative of the overall knowledge of the individual.  I would expect you to agree with that given you are getting so hard over Dalton's one showing of potentially knowing how to play the game.  We just have far more evidence for Dalton struggling to play the game vs Ben not knowing the rules.  But you keep them memories short, it's the only haven of the Bengal fan.

(09-15-2015, 11:16 AM)djs7685 Wrote: Being successful doesn't necessarily mean you have a firm grasp of the entirety of the rule book. Your entire premise is flawed for that reason.

For example, look at Ben Roethsliberger. He's been very successful, and it turns out he doesn't know the rule book very well.

You said Andy needs to "learn to play the game", which indicates that he didn't know how to play the game very well in the past. I agreed with that, but showed that thus far it seems that he is, in fact, learning. Nothing to look at in the past since we're talking about him "learning the game", so I'm not sure why you'd bring up the past in this discussion. It's irrelevant to this exact argument.

So far, technically, for Andy "learning the game", there is zero evidence that he hasn't and all of the evidence possible that he HAS. Therefore, almost every detail of your post is flawed, not just the premise, so na-na-na-na boo-boo, stick your head in doo-doo.

 so there's no contradiction there. I merely stated that you don't have to know the entirety of the rule book to become successful. That's just a fact. The next fact is that Ben has been successful while (apparently) not knowing the rule book very well. What's wrong with those statements? Ben didn't know the rules against the Patriots, but he has definitely been successful in the past. Sorry that it hurts your feelings to be told the truth.

Not sure the issue with the other points you highlighted for what seems like no reason. There's no reason to look at the past other than what has happened in 2015. Why would we go further back than this year if we're talking about Andy finally learning how to play the game? Heck, I was in agreement with you about him not playing very well before, but I just pointed that (so far) he's been looking sharp this season.

Nice try, Sherlock. Try again.

How do you think his hand got up under his facemask?!  He hit him in the throat and his hand slid up!!  Or do you think Crabtree magically went through his facemask to get to the chin?!

Typical Pat!!

(09-15-2015, 11:30 AM)SteelCitySouth Wrote: Please point out where I have used the word contradiction.  Also not knowing the rule book entirely and not knowing it well are neither mutually exclusive or inclusive so one needs to look at the individual.  Again in his entire career he has had one rule laps...I don't thing that equates to "not knowing it well".  That may be a symptom of your exaggerating much like your mistake that I had posted the word contradiction.

As to the highlighted.  I'm not surprised.

Even if it was just retaliation, it's not like Jones just did it to be a punk.

And so now you and Pat will ignore the entire point of it because of a slip of the mind.

Typical.
