The bard, William Shakespeare, wrote that scorned woman line.
He was around in England in the 1500's, or about 300 years before the Confederation of Canada was formed in July 1867.
So, yeah....your post was correct on one point at least.

However, continuing with those holier-than-thou assessments of yours, as to what specifics actually constitute "extreme" or "rational" or whatever , via your own personal qualitative Ramfandom Grading System though.....
that type of labelling and judgmental categorizing seems misguided, and frankly condescending, in my view.

As I have posted before....
I, nor anybody else, needs lessons on how to be a Rams fan!
All of us, at some point in our past, made a subjective decision to Follow The Horns....in our own individual way. And N.B. we are all wired differently.

Question? Do English words mean something different in Canada? Or do you simply skip over every other one like a victim of the Evelyn Wood speed reading method?

I appreciate that this is essentially in jest as are a lot of Canuck's sometimes outrageous references but the more it becomes personal the harder it is for all involved to just laugh it off.

So, both of you, maybe dial it back a bit...

Sure, no problem.

[CanuckRightWinger]

Agreed.

I, for one, will be cheering hard for Goff this Sunday.

[CanuckRightWinger]

Maybe we both get our way.....
I am personally hoping for Lion multiple PickSixes and Punt Return TDs to win the game for Detroit over the 49ers next Sunday!

In other words, even with a Lion win over SF, Goff's Sunday stat line can still stink.
I could see the same formula for Lions wins over Seattle and Zona too....why not?
IE. If the Lions go 3-14, with the above scenarios.......that'd work just fine for me.
FYI, I'd be pissed though, if somehow Goff posted better 2021 Passing stat numbers/ratings as a Lion than he did last year as a Ram!!
...and what Rams fan wouldn't be pissed if that occurred, huh?

I just do not like Jared Goff......and I have been open and honest about that.
Even when he was a Ram, I posted about, IMO anyway, what looked to me to be a lack of leadership (and a selfish aloofness) from Goff.

Other guys still like Goff as a Lion, and they still wanna pull for the guy.....go nuts! I don't care.

But just know that most guys born in the fifties are generally not overly receptive to attempts at being converted from their longheld mindsets.....in any area.

AS WE AGE, WE SUFFER FOOLS LESS KINDLY.

Since Stafford is a 13 year vet, McVay will listen to him. That's a better situation. Much more collaborative. All appearances are, they will be good for one another.

Speak of the devil.

from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2021/0 ... ned-coach/

McVay says his collaboration with Stafford on offense has helped him as a coach and that he’s learned a lot from his new quarterback.

“Yeah, it has definitely helped me,” McVay said this week. “I don’t know if you want to talk about collaboration or just our ability to communicate in the way that he sees it. He has got such a great lens that he sees the game through and I’ve been able to learn a lot from him, as I know of some of our other coaches and his teammates. So, he has got such a great inventory of things to be able to draw on, and that’s a really beneficial thing for our offense and especially for me.”

Good tid bit here. Encouraging to hear McVay is actually listening as well.

Ironically the same is happening in DET as well. I wonder if any such thing ever truly happened with Goff/McVay.

Could it possibly be one of those "the trade was good for both parties"?

According to the article that starts this thread, the last 2 years McVay was the qb coach. I don't think he handled that well. I think Goff had to escape him, and I think McVay needed a collabortor at qb he could learn from (not that that will be 1-sided...obvious Stafford will learn some things from McV too).

Stafford is an advanced veteran with a high level of physical skill, so I don't see him and Goff as being equivalent. But I do think that Goff hasn't reached his ceiling and that he can be a good qb again. Parting ways with McVay could be a part of that process. They just might not have been a good "marriage."
