Memo to All MCM Readers (Updated)
STOP IT! JUST EFFING STOP IT!
Everybody, and that includes me, just needs to stop the VY vs. Kerry crap. We don't need eleventy billion posts on the side about VY. They all say the same damn thing. Stop arguing with each other over the same meaningless thing over and over and over and over. I'm tired of it I and I know I'm not the only one. If you have something groundbreaking you want to share with everyone, then great. Post it. But if it has anything to do with who should start, go here and I'm sure you can have some lovely conversation. Stop replying to each other. I don't care how stupid the other person is. We can all read it for ourselves and see how stupid they are. You just make them talk more when you keep replying. Every single thing on this website turns into the same damn fight. If you want to talk about how great Vince is then go here. If you want to talk about how badass Kerry Collins is go here. Just don't do it on this site. You're turning it into a dump.
Okay, I'm done.
(Update: Clarifying this post)
If you have something new to bring to the table, then by all means bring it.
I just dont want to see this.
Example:
Fisher Wins Coach of the Year! (post headline)
Great! (comments)
Awesome!
He deserved it!
I think Fisher should make VY the starter
No Collins is just fine
(This is where this should stop. You have both made your points. We have read it and understand. This does not mean that somebody else should join in and try to make the exact same points.)
But VY has a better record than Collins
Collins doesn’t turn the ball over as much
But VY has a better record than Collins
Collins doesn’t turn the ball over as much
But VY has a better record than Collins
Collins doesn’t turn the ball over as much( 123124324321 comments later)
You’re stupid!No you’re stupid
….etc
Or this....
(the side bar on the front page where fanposts are)
VY is Better than Collins (headline)
VY in the Wildcat!!!!!
This Season is Over if VY Doesn’t Start!
Don’t Worry… Collins is Fine… Screw VY!
It’s not that these are discussing VY or Collins. This should all be under one post. How do you think this looks when somebody looking for a good Titans website or a national writer looks the website up. SB Nation has made it a point to have a better than average blog. This is what has made it the most popular blog network. I'm just trying to help make this the best place for Titans information.

It's too late.
The backup QB is always the most popular guy in town, and lately we have more than our share of village idiots. But after falling for this line last year, I’m holding firm now. We’re doomed, and there is NO ONE on this roster who can help.

i think VY would be a good call.
Would force JAX D line to account for something they haven’t dealt with yet, a QB that can scramble. QB pressure is suspect from the Jags and Knight has an ankle injury, Big John is a run stuffer, not a pass rushing DT. If VY could have scrambled for a few of those 3rd downs against the jets, those fumbles wouldn’t have cost the game.
This right here is exactly the type of comment
the above post is referring to. We all no Vince can run and Kerry can’t. Nothing earth-shattering there.

Dude...
Must not be much going on on your boring ass blog as usual? You guys up to 100 members yet? Do us a favor and Go breed some more little Jag fans so you don’t ruin it for us all with any blackouts in the near future… When we feel safe that you actually have more than like 5 real fans in your town you can feel entitled to have an opinion. Still rollin with your one year wonder wanna be #9.

Thanks.
It was getting out of hand. Even I’m tired of it, but then again, I’ve already made all these same arguments at least 50 times over the past few years.
Fisher was clear that Kerry gets the nod this week. Let it go for now.
If we can't debate about VY vs. KC...
then were forced to discuss the play of KC this year, and that has become a tired old story this year as well. bad.
"Waiting for the return of the Mac"
"Let VY loose, give him the chance to play his heart out. for himself, for the titans...and for mcnair"
I don’t even know why we debate such things…our opinion does not matter at all with what actually happens with this team. It’s not like Fisher and co. Are going to login and say “well these guys on MCM won’t stop bitching so I guess we outta put Vince in” they know the team better than we do…so everyone shut the hell up about VY and Kerry! If it happens eventually it happens…nothing we can do or say to change that…so just sit back and watch some football

Hold on
I haven’t put my two cents yet on this matter. Ok, here goes…
Kerry Collins and Vince Young both suck. Unless we fix our special teams and address our secondary depth, it doesn’t matter who starts between them. It just doesn’t matter. Just ask Bill Murray. It just doesn’t matter.
"I finished the game. In my mind, if I finished the game, I can play next week." - Steve McNair RIP
I totally agree
Put V.Y. in. He’s simply… AWESOME.
Ok, not really. They both suck. But, VY would help my Jags win by throwing 10 interceptions this Sunday.
I'm not trolling
I wasn’t trying to stir up the animosity. I was just stating an opinion. I didn’t call anyone names or anything.
Funny...
I thought this site was based on dialogue and debate? We are all fans just voicing our opinions…
Not everyone has come up with earth shattering comment or ideas… This place is here for us to freely discuss want we feel as fans… Redundant or not, whether it makes a difference to the guys in the front office is of no relevance… Otherwise we may just as well not ever have another opinion on the team again…
Joe shmoe might say the same thing as Pinoy, so what? Some fans literally aren’t as smart as others.
Denturboy can’t spell for shit, or maybe he’s blind and can’t see his keys? Who knows? I love em cuz he’s a Titans fan but it drove me up a wall tryin to figure out his posts, so I stopped reading them. If it bothers you that much don’t read it. I mean if the arguing gets out of control where dudes are cursing at each other like crazy or something (I will be the 1st to tell you I have fallen in this trap LoL) that’s one thing. But if a bunch of people wanna debate who the QB should be and why, they should be able to do so here more than anywhere else as much as they want.
Now what if someone has something Groundbreaking to say? They might just keep it to themselves thinking they might get a bully post or crucified for it.
Maybe I’m just missing some real ignorant shit somewhere on this Blog? Maybe it’s gotten really out of hand somewhere and I’m not seeing it? If so please point me in the direction, I could use some entertainment at 0-3

It's just that we have had the exact same argument
a quadrillion times, and they all end up the same. I just don’t want this site to turn into that.
Titans Blogger at Music City Miracles even though gramsey hates it.
Has the arguing
really gotten that bad? And it doesn’t always have to be an argument, there should always be room for this discussion no matter how it ends up. These QB debates are a huge part of the game in a lot of venues…
I killed someone for thinking a certain someone should have been the starting QB on this team for a while… Needless to say, I was blinded by Stardom and should have just been more open to her opinions. I feel like I learned my lesson. There’s a lot of different types trying to make their points in their own different and sometimes alike ways.
Maybe cuz I haven’t really thought there was much a controversy till now it seems fresh to me? Maybe cuz I haven’t read a lot of posts involving it, it just doesn’t bother me?
One thing that always bothers me is the thought that Vince and the Titans should run the Wildcat… So I do my very best to avoid those posts at all costs.
For the most part that’s really easy to do… When I come on this site I first read the things that you and August touch on in the center of the page all the way down. Maybe if I have some free time or something catches my eye that sounds interesting on that right side of the page I will check it out. This is why it’s not in the center of the page. It’s a fanpost, not for everyone… And they aren’t written by certain people that were chosen for a reason to have Front page type material.

It really has BBB
It’s the same argument every stinkin’ time
The Kerry Collins detractors: “He’s costing us the game!” “He’s old and slow!” “We can’t win with a game manager!” “(Stats pulled specifically to back up our argument!)” “VINCE YOUNG IS A WINNARRRR!!!!” “WE SHOULD BE RUNNIN’ THE WIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLDCAT!”
The Vince Young detractors: “He’s a quitter!” “He can’t read a defense!” “He turns the ball over too much!” “It’s not Kerry’s fault!” “(Stats pulled specifically to back up our argument!)” “Kerry Collins is a wily vet who has the experience!”
I know you have been reading for a long time BBB, but probably not on here as much as myself and Big Tuna and ADub and hal and michaelt. But it just gets so old having the same argument over and over and over and over.
And I am one of the worst offenders, that’s why I have put myself on the KC/VY embargo. That and the Jade Scorpion embargo, but that is for a different reason.
In the meantime, you know Big Tuna is not going to tell us emphatically that we CANNOT talk about it, I just don’t think he wants it to dominate the blog. But if that’s what the readers want….

Memo To Michaeltastic: Why Don't You Shut the Eff Up?
If the Titans were 0-3 with VY at QB, everyone would be wining about putting KC in.
Fans should be able to vent about whatever they want to as long as it’s relevant to the Titans.
Who are you, the blog police?
Bring Back Vince Young!

I'm obviously not the only one who thinks this...
…being that it’s been rec’d 9 times (which for this site is up there near the top if not on top).
I have no problem with discussions about the Titans or Titans players. But when the fanpost section is filled up with the same damn story it gets fucking annoying.

Eleventy Billions +1!1!1!1!1!1!!!
VY all the way, baby! Collins is mediocre at best especially when the crunch is on. What a great season this is going to be. Even if Vince gets to play, it is all effed up. Maybe this Vince’s destiny to be cast onto a grand stage for a comeback. But I think not. Fisher’s arrogance has gotten the Titans to this miserable place and will keep them here. If it had been Vince going 0 for three on starts and then 0 for his last 13, this board would have had VY’s head on a pitchfork and lit it on fire. Fisher will have to go back to Vince to save his job (again). Adams is getting very pissed off as he is getting old and rumor has it he is looking to sell the team. You can’t really get top $$$ for your franchise with no wins and KC rocking the cellar. Especially when you’re a middle market team and there may be no cap in 2010. Hang on gang. The top is screwed tight on this pressure cooker and each loss just adds fuel to the fire. No way Adams lets this go too much further. Good or bad, Vince will cause attention to return to this franchise and Adams would much rather that than watch his franchise melt into an amorphous blob powder blue blah. My call is VY by Week 8. Kerry Collins’ worst game is yet to come. If I am Vince, I don’t sweat it at all. If they call your number, fine, get in there and have some fun. If not, that’s okay too. No sense in getting the last seat on a train wreck. I hope Michaelbombastalistic likes my contribution to the dung heap he started. It is probably a devious scheme by the forces behind this site to drive traffic.
Baha?
Adams is getting very pissed off as he is getting old
brilliant – I think the Tennessean needs a new sports writer
and rumor has it he is looking to sell the team
unless you reveal yourself to be Adam Scheftner, I’ll have to call b.s. on you.

This is from Forbes 09-02-09.
“The 86 year old Adams, one of the original owners of the American Football League, is rumored to be looking to sell the team.”
To Baha, I stand corrected
it does say that in the article
I still haven’t seen anything to substantiate it though.

Collins sucks, Vince sucks, Harper sucks, we all know it
What I dont understand is why everyone is taking the VY>KC talk so personally. I get on here about every three days, and every single time I do I see someone complaining about the VY<KC posters. Sure your getting tired of reading it if you get on here 5 times per day to check for new comments. The whole idea of not wanting people to talk about it, is the very thing that feeds the conversation. I understand the idea of keeping the fanpost about VY starting to a minimum. So to keep VY out of the QB conversation, would it be better if the VY backers just got on here and talked about how much KC sucks in their opinion? Maybe. Maybe not. Because then there would be people claiming that they need to keep the KC criticism down.
Myself, i try and keep criticism to a minimum. Unless I am pissed off, then I might go on a rant. But those rants are what makes blog sites both good and bad. Just because Billy Bob or whoever gets on here and decides to post a “VY in the Wildcat” fanpost, does not mean that the “Anti VY in the Wilcat” has to be next in line, nor does it mean that if you disagree with VY in the wildcat that you have to get involved with the fanpost. Let the VY backers post on their posts, and let the KC fans post on theirs.
What makes me laugh is when a thread is posted and someone says, “Can we keep a certain name out of this one?” Or," Finally a post not involving VY!" Or whatever it is that the VY-KC conversation haters say. These very comments are what fuels the conversation. The more you dont want to hear about it, the more you will if YOU keep bringing it up.
In all honesty though, for the sake of everyone on this site, i hope KC retires after this season and VY is released. Neither is fantastic, nor are they worth the conversation. Its not like we have Joe Montana starting with Steve Young on the bench.
You are all stupid!!
We can get Crompton next season!!
