Tony Gonzales to the Falcons

[wayne1218]

I know that! Of course they aren't thinking that. At least I hope not... Again, we'll see what happens. That's all we can do... I don't have trouble understanding that. I'd appreciate a little respect. I don't talk down to you. I deserve that much.

AGAIN ... I lost all respect for the conversation right about when you started sounding clueless about football.

If you watch college football you can see why Hawaii people don't really know what a tight end does.All they see is 30 and 40 yard passes down field.

As for age of 33 peanut,you act like he's a running back who is going to touch the ball 30 times a game.Since you live in Hawaii,when he makes the pro bowl again,you can go tell him your sorry in person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It doesn't matter where you're from. Just like I know that all people from TN aren't dumbass, ignorant, NASCAR-loving rednecks. C'mon!

If I were the Birds I'd take their first rounder (#24) and get one of these three guys:

Hakeem Nicks (projected #21)
Darius Bey (projected #25)
Percy Harvin (projected #27)

I think Nicks is the best fit for this kind of offense however, and if they did cash him...... everyone (not just the South), everyone would be afraid to play this team.

Percy Harvin has as much of a chance playing for the Falcons as Mike Vick does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When you KNOW THE DATE that your going to get tested and you fail that tells me you have no respect for anything.He will be another troublemaker in the NFL and the Falcons want no part of that

For losing respect for the conversation you certainly spent a good chunk of time on it...

I was agreeing with you,your the one who said you don't know much about football I'm sure you watch football but football live in action in Hawaii is like Arena football here.2 different style of games.
.You did get 1 of the 3 right.I'm a nascar-loving redneck

Meh, I guess NASCAR is alright!

Needless to say this adds to me wanting the season to start ASAP! You guys have a good one!

Chiefs fan here...............this deal def. looks better for ATL right now. They have a shot to win the NFC, so great move for them. To get the best TE in the history of football for a 2nd rounder is a great move for them.

Looking at KC's view.....Pioli knows they arent winning the AFC this year...so, you build for the future. Last year mid season we shopped Tony G and the best offer we got from NYG was a 5th rounder and Sinorice Moss. I hate to lose Tony G and I was very sad, but this is not a bad deal for the future. Knowing Pioli he will deal that pick this weekend as ammo and turn it into something.

Put up a poll question "Is Tony Gonzales (33) past his prime?"

And you keep using smiley faces. I use facts... You called my statement ignorant. I proved it wasn't. I don;t need to do anything else.

PG, when I first read your post I thought you were dead on....I then went to check out his career stats as I thought they were declinign before last year and the last 2 yrs were 2 of his top 3 yrs in his career. Most players at that age are past their prime and of declining skill, but you have a difficult time arguing that a player his past his prime when he has had two consecutive career yrs. Perhaps a better argument is that you can't depend on him to be as productive because of his age for many more yrs as history would indicate that he won't be and that there would be a droppoff...but, then again, he could be the excpetion to the rule and only time will tell.

Just my $.02.

I wouldn't touch Harvin with a 10' pole and Bey won't make it to #20. Nicks goes to my G-men, if they don't trade up for Bey.

If you think TG is past his prime you are nuts. Not only is he a stud, he plays every week, unlike Gates and Shockey who miss half the year.

Look at TG's games played the last 8 years.

I was trying to rehabilitate you!

You didn't need to go check. Just read my posts!

According to his stats at ESPN, he has missed 2 games in 12 years. One in 99' and one in 06'. That is dam durable!

I'm with you Wayne this guy is durable. And again,33 ain't old at a TE position.And Wayne you know that big son of a bitch ain't scared to go across the middle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He will make an impact right away.

Roddy White may go nuts on the outside if they double TG in the middle. Atlanta is LOADED on offense right now. I wanted them to get Torry Holt. I think he would have been a great compliment to White on the other side for a couple of years and it would have added some more veteran leadership.
