Wow... I compliment Ireland and you slam me.
Not that there is anything factually wrong about my post - there isn't. Its just some feel like bashing anything I write because they are angry, angry people.
Sorry, but I'm not the on that took a leak on your Corn Flakes. That would be Jeff Ireland.
Anyone know anything about our waiver claims?
We should have went after joselio Hanson and Evan Moore
Cut Naanee and sign Gaffney , if healthy,
And one more wr, Gurley? Jeff Maehl?
Jermaine hearse , really versatile Brad Smith, Aaron Hernandez like
player that can play some RBI

I have been saying all along, and agree with the posters on this board, that Ireland shouldn't be judged on his draft picks YET. Give his picks a couple of years, then grade him.
My only beef with Ireland is that thus far, he has yet to pick any All Stars (Long excluded). Once he starts hitting on those, then he will be looked at differently.

But Captain, Ireland has been drafting since 2008. And a lot of the complaints about his stewardship have involved him having to sell at bargain basement prices picks he paid top dollar for.
