🏈 Phillip Ely considering transfer from Alabama

[bamafan4ever]

Oldschool has decided to cool off for a little while.

Sorry for the pictures being posted here, Birdman. That won't be tolerated.

An old man resorting to throwing a tantrum that would make any spoiled teenage girl blush. Such a sad, sad sight to see.

It didnt really bother me, I just didnt understand his motivation. You trying to tell me you think I'm pretty? lol Mainly just seemed creepy.

 

[bamafan4ever]

I found it really odd too and it didn't sit well with me. Pretty low rent if you ask me.

 

[JoshB]

Unfortunately its his MO, hes done it before. I think maybe it was a really poor attempt of saying "i know what you look like" because the first time he posted it he also threatened to whoop my ass via PMs lol

 

[BamaCore]

he also threatened to whoop my ass via PMs lol

Wooow. I knew he got pretty out there with his insults on the forum, but I didn't realize he did all of that.

 

[JoshB]

lmao he said he would even meet me somewhere so I google searched the nearest gay club and sent him the address... im assuming he didnt show.. lol. because then he said he was gonna whoop my ass if I ever showed up in Tuscaloosa.

Wow

ROLL TIDE!!!!!

i'm glad this is the kind of stuff we're bitching about these days as opposed to why we just lost to northern illinois or la tech... :hyper:

Would you prefer ill will?

No, I would prefer he stay. An able well coach capable game ready backup quarterback is probably the second most import position on the team.

I see no need to wish him ill will, but I just don't understand sending these guys that quit to play elsewhere with what amounts to a ticker tape parade? A quitter is not a hero...

I guess I am from another generation and just don't understand this new "me generation".

Let's just say I am glad Mal Moore decided to do the right thing and stick it out when he was the backup quarterback to Joe Namath and Pat Trammel...

Quitting would mean Ely stopping playing football. That is not the case. In fact, in his mind, Ely is probably making a positivemove for him so that his career has a better chance of CONTINUING.

I see where you are coming from, but I think it's a bit limited in scope.

 

[Swamptick]

Who else is here is thinking it aside from you?

Now you know what everyone is thinking?

From the sounds of things, you sure seem to know not only what everyone is thinking, but exactly how they will behave in any given circumstance. Must be nice.

Does it get lonely up there partner?

Age has nothing to do with it, though I am close to 40 and played football. Your arrogance is really making you look bad amigo.

I love it when people from the generation who gave us Medicare and Social Security accuse people under 30 of being a "me" generation.

especially considering its their kids and grandkids who will be paying for it. This whole crap about the WWII and Boomer generation being somehow morally superior to the X generation and below is laughable.

Well, one is from the 60s and one is from the 30s, but your point can definitely apply to any generation that precedes another. Same goes for any generation; people will always see themselves as being better than the next group, for whatever dumb reason(s). I always hear people my age say kids today aren't disciplined enough or are spoiled. Bleh.

Thank you! :smile_new: I just googled Lacy pictures and it came up, it almost looks like a dream or something.

Currently looking for a new avatar as well .. I'm at work but no one is here (lots of freezing rain and delays) so I am just Alabama-ing it up over here!

Not sure what generation OLDSCHOOL is in so i hit them both to prove my point. If he's a boomer he has even less room to talk.

Good thinking. Some folks just like to be really upfront and douche-y about 'their' generation. It's their misfortune, really. Just makes 'em single-minded and ignorant.

So just out of curiosity: did y'all determine he is also CC? Or was that just a joke? I saw a few CC references on another post so I am just wondering haha. Was never a fan of CC, but OLDSCHOOL never really bugged me til this thread.

 

[planomateo]

My vote is to get the subject back on Ely, no reason to keep the other topic going at this point.
