The problem is that you've wandered into the thread without reading back into the context of the discussion.
I'll help out:
1) Kearly argued that the Vikings are the team most likely to not win their division again.
1) WilsonMVP replied that the Vikings are not to be underlooked for next year, with one point of evidence offered being that were it not for a missed chip shot they would have beaten the Seahawks last year.
2) Kearly responded that the Seahawks/Vikings game isn't indicative of anything because it was too cold out.
3) WilsonMVP pointed out that Wilson didn't play much better than Bridgewater, suggesting that if they were both affected by the same conditions, the better team still should have played better.
4) Kearly responded that Wilson's game shouldn't count because it was too cold out.
5) I responded that I disagree with this, pointing out that a much inferior QB had a much superior day in similarly cold conditions a couple years ago (i.e. when talking QB play we can't just throw out games because they're cold as Kearly suggests). Instead, I argued, Wilson is a very good QB who didn't have a good day, and is too good of a QB to need silly excuses to throw out the games in which he doesn't play well.
6) Because you didn't bother to read the whole discussion, you traipsed in saying that I don't know what I'm arguing and am just being difficult .
Now that you know what the conversation is, perhaps you can meaningfully contribute to it. :th2thumbs:
