I wish some of you guys would leave AvengerRam alone. He's one of the "resident" Rams fans that has been around for years, and is welcomed.

I don't like his posts. They are all needling.

Really? They're ALL "needling"?

Even the ones I posted in the three years I was a member here before you joined the site?

(Okay, so that response was a little bit "needling," but ALL of my posts?)

Just offering some perspective from the fan of a team that hasn't seen 4-1 for a long time.

At least you have the "good ol days" to look back upon fondly. We've had very little to get excited about for 35+ years, so forgive us if we get a little hyper critical after losses.

When you're like us and not used to being this good, it's hard to know how to act.

I believe Mr Needy Passive-Aggressive is from Florida. So, I'm sure he picks and chooses allegiances assuring he's never in need of "good old days" remembrance.

Good for him, really.

We expect greatness out of our team. You (rams) expect to be above average. It's all relative.

I like AvengerRam. Some people are just taking his remarks too personally.

Common sense should imply that I'm only referring to the ones I've read.

I am from Florida, but I "picked and chose" the Rams as "my team" in 1977, so I've experienced "good old days" and some pretty crappy ones as well.

I'm also a diehard Miami Heat fan, and have been since the team was established in 1988. So, once again, I've seen good days (like, say, right now) and bad ones as well.

Ok, let's get this straight. The disgreements are not due to those who point out passive aggressiveness taking anything too personally. (That suggestion, though, is getting personal.)

The issue is this: You can tell someone or a group of people something and still do so granting them dignity. The OP didn't rise above that line.

If someone disagrees with him or takes issue... he goes on the attack. (So, who's exactly taking it personally?) He can apparently never be wrong or have no fault? He calls someone out since they wrote "all" his posts (as hyperbole), and in his insulting response to the person who said and knowingly projects upon that poster only the possible literal meaning of "all" and attacks that strawman. (Again, he always has to be right.) But, when he says "You Guys make me laugh" (directed at an indeterminate number of posters) and comes across as a sweeping generalization of Seahawks nation... that's alright to give him a pass and even praise him for that sort of approach? Ok, then.

I would have been impressed if he would not be so defensive and try to see the honest criticisms that some felt worth mentioning - because those commenting on his communication style are not just trying to belittle the guy.... but, take the time since he's a part of the .net community which says he's worth mentioning it to and worth it for the community. I think the only reason Pehawk and others gave a rip to even try mentioning something is that Avenger isn't coming in and being blatantly rude.

Something tells me that we're not the first people to try to point some of this out in his life. If so, that's a far more important consideration than whether or not Avenger is deemed a passive troll on an opposing team's board.

When exactly did I attack someone?

I frankly don't get why you and a couple of others are getting your backs up over my posts.

I suggested that Seahawks fans should be less critical of their team and enjoy the great era they find themselves in... OH MY GOD! I SHOULD BE BANNED FOR SUCH AN OFFENSIVE SENTIMENT!

On another thread, I ripped PFF for ranking the Seahawks OL so low (and inexplicably ranking the Rams' O line in the top 10)... HOW DARE I SAY SOMETHING SO CONTROVERSIAL AND INFLAMMATORY!

Seriously?

Some of you guys just need to relax.

Glad we could a couple laughs out of you here. Gives you a break from all of the tears. Good luck on battling the Jags on the Bridgewater sweepstakes

You're not entirely wrong.

One of the reasons I come here from time to time is that I get tired of the constant whining on Rams sites (including ClanRam). Sure, we have problems, but you'd think that we were LITERALLY in the Bridgewater sweepstakes (we're not, of course) by the way some Rams fans rip the team.

This is the wrong place to come to if you're tired of whining.

You guys should be hoping for Bridgewater. Bradford is not the guy.
You guys traded away RG3.

Hardly the point of this thread, but since you mentioned it, I'll take Michael Brockers, Janoris Jenkins, Alec Ogletree, Stedman Bailey, Zac Stacy and a 2014 first round pick over a QB who, though talented, is going to have a hard time staying healthy.

Good point Avenger. The point of the thread, at least personally, is to expose a member as a needy fraud. And, hopefully shame him into ACTUALLY contributing to the true spirit of the board, football.

Redalice is a keeper, why cant you be?

Okay...

So now that you've fully exposed yourself, are you going to move on to another thread?
