I heavily disagree with that analysis / language, I don't see how it applies.  I think it's a much more complex set of factors than that.

Disagree with your opinion.  We all have one, don't take away the validity of mine.  Been on here and long time and not going anywhere. Thanks.

If you post on an forum expect to be challenged imo. A variety of perspectives and debate brings balance to this place. 

Not a fan of the language that was used.  I believe they were over simplifying the current situation the Bombers are in.  Not the 1st time I countered that argument.  I am allowed to disagree and counter people's opinions. I will do my best to present mine.

A thumbs down button would make that process easier imo.

There is a group on here that doesn't like how I post, many that likely have no opinion and some that like and support me.  Over generalizing imo.  I could care less, not on here to be popular.

I rarely agree with what you post but it doesn't mean I don't value your contributions and I would never encourage you to change how you post.  Our diversity of opinions and posting styles is our strength.

Personally I think you have some valid and good posts, however at times it sure feels like you counter almost every negative post when its not necessary. After 3 losses like the ones we have everyone's looking for what's wrong.
  If there's an alternative theory for what has gone south so badly this year lets hear it.
I applaud your support for the team but the way we have lost with poor communication, breakdowns and just poor play is gonna bring questions

Yes I have countered people's opinions for a decade.  Just my style.  Yes it can ruffle a feather or two.

I supported this club pre mini dynasty and was continually roasted by many before our epic run. The negativity in those days was over the top but there was a group on here that seen the forest through the trees.  It wasn't a fun place to be back then defending this club as we built our club back to excellence.  Everytime I was positive or supportive of the club, a group of posters would strongly counter me.  Just how it goes, goes in cycles or waves.  We are in a through of negativity right now as we have laid three rotten eggs.  The golden goose will return eventually to lay fresh ones.
I am still in support of this club and taking the long view.  I will still be patient.  That said we are no longer the powerhouse we once were.  There are issues.  I will always counter folks when I believe it's warranted and I don't agree with their positions.

Thanks for the kind words.  I don't have all the answers and wrong as much as I'm right.  I don't follow the herd, I like to blaise my own trail.

I don't believe in short term thinking. I'm a long term guy.  I am not interested in a few good years, looking for decades of dominance.  I have supported the club previously under the leadership of Dave Ritchie.  I'm always looking to balance win now vs. slowly developing players and having consistency in coaches and management.  Our changes in this regard as of late has brought some short term wrinkles that we can iron out.

I believe the forum should post stats on how many likes each member gets.  Would be telling.

Coming from the guy that wanted the Bomber D all dumped, MOS fired and Hall just before our mini dynasty.

This has nothing to do with ego.  Your track record speaks for itself and so does mine.  I am long on the Bombers, you routinely take the short term view.  That's ok and won't change.
