The only thing that has really bothered me is that a lot of people throughout many threads on these boards have been referring to that stiff arm as a "throat punch", even after watching the Vine and other clips of the incident. You can clearly see an open hand and the fact that he didn't touch Jones' throat. As far as any other portion of the incident goes, I haven't really been involved with arguments discussing that stuff. I just maintain that I really wish he would have let it go and then blasted Cooper on one of the next plays instead. If the officials actually saw the fight and Jones push Cooper head into the helmet, he would have 100% been ejected from the game. We don't need that from our best CB.

The thing that bothered me the most about the exchanges that I've been having is when Shake flat out said that "That'd be way too easy (and truthful)" when referring to myself and anybody else refusing to call the specific portion of the incident a "throat punch". That's not cool.

You and I have always been cool on here, Shake and JJ were guys I consistently had great discussions with and agreed on a lot of stuff, especially for the few months before the old board shut down. There aren't many people here that I legitimately dislike, it's just a message board, but I must say that it's sad to see JJ acting different now than he did before. There are no more good arguments, everything that he says just contradicts what he's saying in a different thread or else he just posts to instigate by bashing part of the fanbase with almost every post on here. It is what it is, I guess.

I haven't changed and I've always trolled the trolls. And we never was "cool". I remember the offseason of 2014, when Mully was your ace, and both of you were considered trolls on the old board. New folks may not remember but I do.  If anyone has tried to reinvent themselves it's you. And more power to you.  

Say I changed all you want, but I'm not rushing to Coopers defense, and wouldn't have at the old board either.  If you continue to want to and take shots at me for supporting Jones then that's you, but leave me out of it.
