Former Hawks at Texas Tech

[PCHawk]

Yeah I agree PC. You can be right without being a dick.

Icke there's nothing wrong with sharing your opinion. It's the manner in which you choose to share it that people don't appreciate. If that makes you want to leave the boards then so be it, but don't blame it on other people unless you want to try to actually act civil and see how you're treated. If you can't do that then please, by all means, remove yourself from the board. I don't think anyone would care.

If you want to show some class however I'm sure you'd be welcome to stick around and contribute more, and people wouldn't give you such a hard time. You do have some good points every once in awhile. It's really not that difficult to figure out. A little respect goes a long ways.

Hell im pretty much always right and until Ickehawk came around I was never a dick.

What on earth would you research before you said Derrick Willis could be a high draft pick? Does the lack of past high draft picks prove he won't be one? It sure didn't prove Crabtree wouldn't be one. There is nothing "right" about your post other than saying Tech hasn't had many high draft picks. Everything else was garbage just like always. That's why people can't stand you. You took an innocent post and ridiculed it. What a joke of a human you are.

Um, because he said he could still put up monster numbers and be a high draft pick?? There have been a bunch of QB's and WR's that have put up 'monster' numbers at Tech, but that does not culminate into being a 'high' draft pick which a little 'research would have cleared up.... You are definitely a 'unique' individual, and thank god 'humans' have YOU looking out for them, LOL.... How was that an 'innocent' statement? "If Obama was a white Catholic, he could be pope!" Lol...Is that an 'innocent' statement? If you are a 'human', than apparently I am of another 'race', lol....

Some research would tell you Crabtree was a high draft pick. Not that that matters whatsoever but for some reason you think past success has anything to do with it. I agree he probably won't be one at this point, but it sure as hell doesn't have anything to do with past players. Didn't you make fun of someone the other day for bringing up history in a post?

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

I'll take a little wager about whether he'll be a 'high' round draft pick! Yes, receivers at Texas Tech can put up some numbers because of the 'system', but show me all the high draft picks they've had in the NFL and ALL the successful WR's they've had, lol.........You really think he's better than Crabtree, who was like the ONLY WR they had 'drafted'? Do you like ever 'sensor' yourself or do ANY research before you post? And this isn't a 'personal' attack, like I receive from you folks, just the 'truth'................And don't bring up Wes Welker, because he wan't even drafted..........

It's a fan sight, Trj is a good poster. Jesus I hope your a troll, if you're not, and you don't understand why almost everyone here has a problem with how you talk down to everyone...

If you are just a troll...congrats. if you're not...wow.

 

[Ickehawk]

Hell im pretty much always right and until Ickehawk came around I was never a dick.

Oh, so this is your philosophy?

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

More importantly though he is right.

The love affair with Willies was so over the top it was sickening. He never once proved on the field he was better than Powell, Hillyer, or Vandeberg.....and he was clearly way inferior to KMM and T. Smith. Still posters wanted a starting spot and featured roll handed to him without earning it.

Yeah, I agree about Willies. But cmon Dean...Icke is insufferable with his schtick...the sad part is I'm not certain it's even a schtick.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

Someone makes a 'ridiculous' statement and I'm being a 'dick' for pointing it out??? I'm getting off these 'message boards' because the people that 'frequent' them are in their own little world. They think they are the 'majority' off fans, but they are just a VERY SMALL percent of 'fans'......There are over a 100,000 (maybe 200,000 or more?) Hawkeye fans nation wide, but the 40 or 50 that 'live' to post their 'opinions' on these message boards ALWAYS think they are the 'norm' and the majority....anonymous message boards and all their vitriol, are going by the wayside in a hurry...and Ithink they will for 'fan's also....this explains 'part' of the problem (and I see it here all the time)...http://www.newyorker.com/tech/elements/the-psychology-of-online-comments

Yes. That'd be great.

Just responding to the first to sentences.

Who is EVERYONE? There are 1000's of viewers of this site, and 8-10 people who post stupid shit and then argue about it when I point it out.........Very few people post and it isn't because of me and it started wayyy before me. Like I said, you 'folks' (tiny minority) who shanghai these boards, are a special breed and are apparently 'made' for each other....'talk down to everyone'? What? Do you want me to compliment and give participation ribbons for idiocracy? That mentality is 'exactly' what is wrong with this country and this 'lost' generation people keep talking about.........https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...b9eba0f87d6_story.html?utm_term=.96947a7e54c7

 

[Ickehawk]

Christ, a bunch of you yahoo's argued AGAIN about 'star' ratings on and on and on...you didn't need me, I stayed out of that one. You guys have fun..................

Just entertainment for ya huh? Soapbox hero.

 

[PCHawk]

Yes. That'd be great.

Just responding to the first to sentences.

I'd like to know where this guy came from. I've been here for 5 years or so and have never seen a poster that matches him so I'm pretty certain he's never been here. Then he shows up going a 100 miles miles an hour out of nowhere? What made him start posting here? More importantly, what will it take for him to leave?

Never seen anything like it on here. It's interesting, but I'll admit, he's different. He loves his generalities.

Oh THAT'S what's wrong with this country? Maybe that's secretly why Kap won't stand for the national anthem.

 

[PCHawk]

Yeah, I agree about Willies. But cmon Dean...Icke is insufferable with his schtick...the sad part is I'm not certain it's even a schtick.

I know Dean hates the Willies situation but him saying Icke was right really shows how far his blind hatred goes for it. He goes on a long rant about how dumb it is to suggest a Tech receiver could be a high pick because it's been rare in the past, and Dean says he's right just because the overall message is he doesn't think Willies is that good. Can a post be right when there is absolutely no logic in it? I was going to post that CJ might get drafted this year, but thank god I did some research first because Iowa quarterbacks don't get drafted very often.

 

[PCHawk]

Never seen anything like it on here. It's interesting, but I'll admit, he's different. He loves his generalities.

And he calls me unique lol.

 

[trj]

I completely forgot Danny Amendola went to TT, this google, internet thing is amazing. i know he was an undrafted FA, eehhh I just forgot.

I make oft hand comments on here all the time. I do not take myself that seriously. People call me out on it and that's cool. DW is a freakish athlete who could still put up decent numbers. 25 to 30 catches and you put up good workout numbers at a pro day can lead to a 3rd or 4th rd. pick. it is not like it is unprecedented. More than likely he has to get a job in the real world in a couple of years.

As for Icke I think he is unstable. He could very well be a troll. When it comes to mental health issues I do not poke the bear. I just let him do his thing it doesn't phase me one way or another.

That's why people can't stand you. You took an innocent post and ridiculed it. What a joke of a human you are.

He is saying that Texas Tech pumps out WR with crazy system stats all the time that don't get drafted. Why would Willies who is in that crazy stat system, but isn't putting up any numbers then be drafted? It is a logical thought.

The illogical thought is comparing Crabtree to Willies. Crabtee came in as a FR and caught 134 balls for over 1900 yards rec. He then caught nearly 100 balls for 1300 yards as a So. How is what Willies has done/is doing in any way shape or form comparable to Crabtree??????????

Break down his post, and nothing he says is incorrect, and there is only one attack in the post:

I'll take a little wager about whether he'll be a 'high' round draft pick! (more than likely factually correct, and willing to bet on it)

Yes, receivers at Texas Tech can put up some numbers because of the 'system', but show me all the high draft picks they've had in the NFL and ALL the successful WR's they've had, lol.........(factually correct)

You really think he's better than Crabtree, who was like the ONLY WR they had 'drafted'? (110% factually correct, comparing Crabtree to Willies is off the charts crazy)

Do you like ever 'sensor' yourself or do ANY research before you post? And this isn't a 'personal' attack, like I receive from you folks, just the 'truth'................(This is the only part that is insulting, the rest is just factually correct)

And don't bring up Wes Welker, because he wan't even drafted..........(Factually correct)

I think it is a joke the Willies worship that went on around here, and lets be honest you were the #1 fanboy of Willies.

You claimed back in the day that Vandeberg had no business seeing the field over Willies. You love to pound your chest about being right about CJ, can you at least then admit when you are dead ass wrong?

 

[deanvogs]

Yeah, I agree about Willies. But cmon Dean...Icke is insufferable with his schtick...the sad part is I'm not certain it's even a schtick.

For all the crap Icke has said, I am shocked that this one has brought down the wraith of everyone. I mean the Willies worship that still goes on around here is just crazy stupid.
