The people who think a freshman will beat out Dobbs next year is HIGH! Why do we always put our high school recruits on a pedastool? Because they are unknown? Saying Dobbs is not the future is just as asinine. The easiest quality to improve in a QB is accuracy. It just requires many off season repetitions with his wideouts.
Gee, you complement and apologize to the 'level-headed', arrogant, pathologically dishonest manipulator? How did that work out for ya? Did he hold himself accountable? Did he suddenly become honest? Did you make a new pathologically dishonest friend? Do his like-minded acolytes love you more? Did he return the favor - or just bite you? Did you gain the respect of allies whom agree with you?
Chronic manipulators just need to be confronted and exposed for the frauds they are - then defeated on the merits when they keep manipulating. It's never pretty or popular to nail a guy to the wall. Yet, manipulators like him will never hold themselves intellectually accountable when proven wrong. They just keep manipulating, evading and looking for a weakness to exploit. Save charity and graciousness for the many reasonable people of good-will. Manipulators like him will only exploit it. Figure out whom your allies really are before they lose respect or you. Don't compliment or apologize to the dishonest hoping to gain their respect. Remember, sociopaths almost always represent themselves as composed and level-headed. It's how they gain the confidence of suckers they manipulate. Just saying.
If you are speaking of me and FLSTVol: No we are not the same. He is correct and well-informed on the historical facts most people refuse to accept, but I'm far less tolerant of the dishonesty, hypocrisy and manipulators. I'de bet he resents my brass-knuckles approach to dealing with the perpetually dishonest among VN. I think he is 100% correct on substance, but too concerned about playing nice with pathological manipulators. I don't care how the weasels feel about me. Frankly, I don't care a rat's butt how the masses feel about me. Most of them are only superficially paying attention and easily manipulated by the style of the chronic manipulators I confront and expose. I enjoy rooting out the liars and manipulators - no matter how many are turned off, spew bile and hate me. None of them can defeat anything I argued on the merits. That's what I care about - exposing dishonesty among the pathologically dishonest manipulators whose pride won't permit accountability. It's fun watching a snake dance.
