LOL @ a lot of the comments in those other threads.
Particularly dkgojackets referencing communism in the thread about Matt Ryan's contract.

Quite a poster.

He does have a point considering you called Ryan a "hyped" candidate and said that the voters "stopped thinking."

IMO, Ryan was an easy choice for it and many voters happened to believe the same.

hyped = conspiracy???? Conspiracy is a deliberate attempt to force a planned outcome. That's not the same thing as hyped. The "stopped thinking" is a result of the hype, not a conspiracy.

Am I the only one who thinks Ryan and Flacco will be the players that Young and Leinart was hyped to be?

The problem is that you want to make out Ryan's award as the product of "media hype" when that might not even be the case, unless you want to act upon your "gut feeling." Watching Ryan's games, it was easy to make a judgement on him and many of the voters happened to share that same viewpoint. Period. God forbid, perhaps the voters actually voted on who they thought was the best candidate and not on any other emotions.

I'm cool with this simply because it makes losing Michael Vick not matter to the Falcons anymore.

Yes, because neither one of them is a "running" quarterback and that's all Vince Young can do.
