    Are you dyslexic or do you just make stuff up?

    I don't normally correct grammar but it does annoy me when people butcher the English language while deriding the intelligence of others.

    Stupid is an adjective not a noun, dummy.

    Dyslexia is a learning disorder related to syntax in the conjugation and comprehension of written language. The people who are encumbered by dyslexia don't need to be vilified for a condition they have no control over. A dyslexic could no more change their condition than a black man could change the color of his skin. I oppose prejudice in all its forms and hope in the future you would constrain yourself from ridiculing the learning impaired.

    MT, we all know nothing is going to change until the end of our PO run, at a minimum. But we're in a war right now and there will be plenty of time coming up to start this all over again until we get right back to the beginning to once again start all over for the umpteenth time. My level of success right now is getting one playoff win because we'll need real coaching displayed to position our players to beat good competition. JMO>

    He won 10 games in each of his first 2 seasons, then 6 games in his third and fired. I think he was fired more for his personnel moves than anything else but memory is fuzzy on that.

    He then went to SF and went 2-14 his one season there. According to Pro Football Reference.

    I'm assuming the people wanting Tomlin to be fired grew up watching Noll win four SuperBowls in six years, and assume that a head coaching change is the only thing preventing that from happening again.

    Kelly got Baalke fired in SF too which is pretty funny. John Lynch took over the next year.

    Say? Isn't Baalke the guy who hired Urban Meyer to the Jags? :roflmao:

    I think this is Baalke's last go round as a GM. Sure did love college coaches: Harbaugh, Kelly, Meyer. Kirby Smart is probably on the phone with him right now.

    It took you 20 minutes to come up with that but it's still funny. Good one. The downside is that you are as old as you are and haven't grown as a person past mocking the disabled.

    "Hey Mr. College Coach. Come lead us to the promised land!!!!"

    When the f*ck was the last time a coach with no NFL experience came on to HC a team and won anything? Jimmy Johnson? 30 f*ckin' years ago when the salary cap was a new concept? Thank the powers that be that it is not up to you.

    Won a Super Bowl? Don't think that's happened. But Jim Harbaugh came in from college and has never had a losing season which I'm told is just as good.

    Yeah how could he? And I rated his one comeback as hilarious. It's just been a bit rough this year with my niece switching schools. The good news is her new school is way better then her last and things are trending up for her. Thanks. I just put Jeh on ignore. I know he meant no harm but I'm over it.

    Is dyslexia really a disability though? It’s a learning disorder that can be corrected.

    I tend to think of disabilities differently than that.

    I just think this country is ultra sensitive. I suffered some hearing loss in my 20’s and don’t bristle at deaf jokes.

    I’m waiting for the first “what?” reply

    Harbaugh was a QB coach with the Raiders for 2 years before he went to the college ranks.

    Certainly your prerogative even if I think you may be overreacting a bit. Good luck to your niece.

    It's a learning disability. I never told Jeh what he could or could not say- just trying to make him think about what he is saying. I even rated his one comeback as hilarious.

    I'm over it and put him on ignore. He has been finding new and inventive ways to call me stupid in multiple threads the last couple days which I am fine with; but I had to draw the line when I recognized the prejudicial nature of his thinking eg. writing off anyone who would say "bruh" as an idiot is closely tied with xenophobia as is mocking people by associating specific conditions pejoratively a form of prejudicial thinking.

    I hate political correctness more than the next guy. I'm not playing a victim. Jeh is just like a TV channel I have chosen to turn off. Hope that explains it and we can get back to the war between attributing all of Tomlin's success to Cowher/Ben vs. claiming having 15 not losing seasons in a row deserves an award.
