Actually, I'm only here to read the debate between raider and jets fans. I'm hoping for a few insights to the game on Sunday as well as a few laughs. :wink:

I know you guys hate Marty. Considering the way he has owned your team over his 17 years as a head coach, I can't blame you. I personally have a great deal of respect for him as a coach and always have, even when he was on the other sidelines. He certainly represents a step up from Smiley Riley.

Marty does not accept mediocrity, and Butler absolutely HATES losing. Butler also has proven to be a maestro in drafting and trading. Even his free-agent acquisitions contribute, some of them substantially. I and my fellow Boltheads are looking forward to the coming seasons.

Sure did, and guess what? We improved by 4 games in 2001, and by 3 games in 2002. Next year we expect this trend to continue. We have every reason to look forward to "next year".

Besides, no fan with heart gives up on his team, and the Boltheads on that board have TONS of it!

Like I said before, I'm not here to talk trash, but that nonsense about raider fans "taking over" our board really required a reply. I'm going to drop the whole thing now unless I read some other idiotic statements like that one that are just begging for a response.
