Just because I played and coached, doesnt mean others cant have an opinion or even have a better one on a subject here, i wanted that to be clear. someone could have watched a lot more film than i did or watch more games (i like deli do not watch college ball) just some senior bowls and the combine.

I'd rather put an ice pick through my ear than listen to Francessa.

He's scouted on the pro level and worked for the Jets in the front office for Parcells in player administration, contract negotiation and capologist. He now does a show on NFL Radio called Moving The Chains which was time-slotted against Francesca.
The difference in NFL knowledge between Kirwin and Francesca is night and day.

The difference in listening enjoyment between Francessa and a air horn 2 inches from your ear is night and day as well, not in Mike's favor either. When I was regularly listening to sports radio, I would shut off WFAN and listen to Eagles radio whenever Mike came on. He is that horribly bad. Someone has to be some type of masochists or Mac computer lover(same thing really) to choose to listen to him. I've heard that North Korea keeps recordings of his shows for torturing political prisoners. The cruelty of that is inconceivable. I fear intelligent alien life will pick up the radio waves from his show and decide our entire planet must be destroyed to protect the universe from his show. So when that kinetic bombardment begins and ends life on this planet, you will know who to blame. He must be stopped before it is too late.

I played with Richie “frogging” Glover, but I don’t think that makes me any more knowledgeable than those of you who stayed at a Holiday Inn Express 😂

Played organized ball and lettered in football as a two-way lineman. My story of playing with a Pro is a different one. Our varsity HC thought it was a good idea(and funny) to initiate the "frosh" by letting them be human tackling dummies. The drill was to jog on a straight line with a ball as a Senior got to gain a head of steam and destroy us--as long as it was a perfect form tackle from the side. I was lucky to draw 6' 5" TE/DE with the nick name "bam bam" who ultimately was drafted by the Colts after playing at Purdue. He played 5 yrs in the NFL with the Colts and Bills as a TE. Yes, the coaches and Seniors enjoyed good laughs--can you imagine this happening today? Punishment for a poor practice or game often included less water breaks. Yes, the late 70's/early 80s was definitely a different era for school football.

I beg to differ. I pay good money to go and see a football game and I have every right to criticize if I am not happy with the performance. Just as we have the right to criticize a movie. We do not have to be actors to know when acting sucks. Same goes for football. When I see someone drop almost every pass thrown at him or when the QB ignores a wide ope WR and throws into the double coverage for an INT, I do not need to have been in the "chaos of the sideline" or "walk in the players shoes" to criticize them because they suck. Having said that, since I have played professional sports in Europe, I normally do not criticize a player for making a mistake because "shit happens". However, if the same mistakes keep happening then I do not criticize the player but the people who made the decision for that player to be on the field. Why are you directing your hostilities at me? I wasnt the one who started this and I wasnt the one who said it. Im just trying to explain what I though the OP was saying in a different way. Dude calm down, your going after the wrong person. At least that is the what your post reads like to me anyway What exactly did I say that was "hostile"? Perhaps you are a bit overly sensitive and you need a "safe space" so you do not see "hostility" in a post that simply disagrees with your explanation without using any profanity/ appropriate words etc.

What profanity did I use, and yes you are a very angry and hostile person. Maybe you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you think your so much better than everyone elsa and rules dont apply to you. Man never knew questioning someones motives was profane. Maybe your the one who needs your so called "Safe Space" Snowfalke.

I said I replied to you without using profanity and you called me hostile! That's OK. I could call you what you are but I do not want to be banned. By the way I am not a "snowflake" and I do not need a safe space. It is you who find normal posts "hostile". So have a nice life and refrain from reading "hostile" posts.

We will have to disagree on this since most fans aren't carrying on this way especially towards other fans..

Jones turns it over too much as we know. Seeing this and realizing it has zero to do with ever playing a single "real" football game on any level.
The rest of his game is good and will be get better but the T/Os will end his career very soon most likely
