If I may be permitted to condense & summarize them in my own words:1. Guys who wished Stafford a permanently paralyzed throwing thumb forever.2. Guys who wondered aloud why McVay employed no padding atop Ram DL practice helmets.3. Guys who chirped, "Gee, perpetually brittle Stafford, hurt again? Quelle surprise!!"4. Guys teasing "Why would historically overrated & underachieving Stafford suddenly be hot shit now, with Los Ramos?"Canuck's rejoinder to the 4 Groups above:For Group #1. "Hear Ye, Hear Ye....I wish a pox upon all of your houses!!!" #2. An insightful question given the potential risk to a major team asset. Remember...that to question authorities' decisions in never a vice! .....unless if you are a subordinate in a military combat situation!! #3. Ah, for the sarcastic crowd who love to deal in perplexing irony:SO....May your "innocent" teenage daughters in High School all be voted "MOST LIKELY TO CONCEIVE!" #4. FACT: Self-doubting/risk-averse guys like these, substituting for Admiral Chester Nimitz, would never have sunk 4 Jap Carriers at Midway!!!
