Dear Pedrorocks

[Stealth01]

Here are a few Patriots web sites. I know, based on the average Pats fan, that it's difficult to find intelligent football talk about your team. I'm hoping the list below will find you a place to trash talk your nemesis, Drew Bledsoe, without being on a BILLS board with BILLS fans. If one of them tickles your fancy, please feel free to stay there. Forever.

Let him come here and bash Bledsoe. It makes him look like more of a fool when he does so. He KNOWS that Bledsoe is the better QB and "methinks the lady doth protest too much" certainly applies here.

[N.Y. Orangeman]

I'd hate to have this site closed off to fans of other NFL teams. Adds to the mix, IMHO.

No one is suggesting we should ban fans of other teams. Stealth is just giving Pedro a subtle hint to flame his doom and gloom elsewhere.

Have you ever read anything by Pedro? The guy thinks he's funny... but he's about as funny as the holocaust. And he's annoying. Imagine a hemmoroid in human form.

No one is banning this twirp. But I certainly wouldn't mind if he disappeared.

[goobylal]

Ped is just a symbol of the new breed of Pats fans. They're getting to be about as arrogant as Cowboys fans were. SO is their team, although this rough stretch has GOT to have knocked them on their arses.

[captain]

Pedro is not representative of the vast majority of Pats fans or for that matter, most fans. He's a troll. So is WCoastFin.

Don't feed trolls.

Best way for that to happen if that's how you feel is just to ignore him, don't you think?

[Stealth01]

We've tried the "just ignore him" approach on other people. It didn't work. It's just a sad state of affairs when a Pats fan has so little constructive discussion of his own team that he has to come to a Bills board just to trash one player her personally despises. LIke a Bills fan going to a Fins board just to trash Fiedler or something.

Pathetic.

[fna0356]

I hope Pedro is paying attention when Bledsoe passes Jim Kelly this week for the Bills record in consecutive passes without an INT. Does anyone know what the NFL record is for that?

[JoeMama]

It's like 300 or so. I think by Jim Plunkett.

[FrankieA]

I haven't really been around here to often lately. Heavy work schedule, being at the game this weekend, etc... it seems Pedro has not been around to much these days, he can't talk garbage about Bledsoe who I now know is having a better season then Tom Brady

[John]

Give him a break, guys. I'm sure he's busy getting ready for the baseball playoffs tonight. Who are the Red Sox playing again? :d

[Bledsoe11]

Pedro is NOT representative of Patriot fans. He is an individual with an opinion of his own (like all of us). Don't lump all Pats fans in with him. Many of us still feel letting Drew go was a mistake and are very happy for his success in Buffalo...

[sahlensguy]

The witch hunt continues...

If we're voting...Pedro, you can stay.

BTW, shouldn't this crappy thread have been redirected from the beginning?

What witchhunt are you talking about? I saw this in another thread and don't get it.

And this pertains to the main board, since that's where Pedro posts, so it is relevant to discussions on that board.

[captain]

Most Consecutive Passes Attempted, None Intercepted
308 Bernie Kosar, Cleveland, 1990-91
294 Bart Starr, Green Bay, 1964-65
279 Jeff George, Indianapolis, 1993; Atlanta, 1994

[bigdog]

Pedro is shiva is realistic is...well you get the picture. Getting rid of a bad case of the clap will be easier i'm afraid.

Publicly calling one out and asking them to stay away forever can generate somewhat of a mob mentality here, and is in no way fair to the individual.

A suggestion: If Pedro's posts don't follow the rules of the hard core forum, move them to another. Isn't this one of the duties of being a moderator?

BTW, Do you know where the "I'm calling you out, Shiva..." post was redirected to today? I can't seem to get there.

[TigerJ]

I just hope Pedro can appreciate the fact that prospects of a high pick in round one from the Bledsoe trade are starting to slip. Well, perhaps the Patriots can work at raising their own first round choice some to compensate. In fact maybe they even got started with that last Sunday.

[JoeMama]

Pedro sucks. Dedicating a post to how much he sucks is a-okay with me! Nice post Stealth. Don't let these P.C. holy rollers tell you otherwise.

If Stealth had his way, we wouldn't even get the chance. Wouldn't that be a pity!

[Bufsabresnu]

Pedro does nothing but spue at the mouth. He continues to talk trash about the Bills even when they win and has no concept of giving credit where credit is due. He thinks that Brady is great and Drew sucks.. which couldn't be farther from the truth. Drew is on a MVP pace while Brady, who not yet great is playing some good ball too.

[Brady Sucks]

Yet another ex-Patriot! :d

[Brady Sucks]

I would also like to make a distinction in the 'Pedro sucks' statements floating about here....

'Pedrorocks458,' the poster on this board, sucks.....

Pedro Martinez, about to win yet another Cy Young, does not suck!

[Stealth01]

Mob mentality? Nope. Just me expressing my personal opinion that Pedro is not a Bills fan, rarely discusses Bills football, comes here solely to trash Drew Bledsoe, and should go elsewhere. No threat to ban, secretly ban, edit, delete, or otherwise "moderate" him away.

ANd bduff's original post wasn't so much a witch hunt as a...clash of egos. :d

How is that not anything but attacking the poster and not the post? It's public stoning!

Moderation should not be a weapon to use, but rather a privilage to honor and uphold. In other words, if someone is breaking the rules or guidelines here, take the appropriate action and do what moderators do. If they are not, well then... buzz off - I like the diversity.

As for that other post...it was a little quick on the draw and showed a lack of manners...
BTW, do you know where it was redirected to today? I can't seem to find it?

[N.Y. Orangeman]

"P.C. Holy rollers"?

Yeah, that tag is relevant to this thread.......

[Scott Vaughn]

I think the fact that Pedro is suddenly not posting shows that he knows his analysis of the Bills, Pats and Bledsoe was incorrect.

[Stealth01]

Well, Sahlensguy, if you want to get technical, he HAS been vioalting the terms of service by spamming the board repeatedly with the same thing, over and over again. This is a private board for Bills fans, and we reserve the right to ban anyone we want for any reason we want.

That said, please note that neither Pedro nor his rocks have been banned. I asked him to go away. It wasn't a slam, it was a request. Don't like it, why don't YOU go away. Just because I have this stupid MODERATOR tag stuck on me doesn't mean I can't express an opinion or ask someone to leave.

Have you ever seen Pedro's posts? He is not a Bills fan - its clear from what he posts - just negative stuff to antagonize the Bills fans here.

In my book, turnabout is fair play. No one said anything about banning. This is just a poke at the posts (not the poster) which points out how wrong those posts were.

That's fair.

Sounds like a dirty, out of hand hockey game where the refs neglect to keep the players in check by not enforcing the rules.

Private board? True I had to register, but it seems open to all the public to me. There is officially a new 'private forum' here though, I think. Perhaps YOU should go there. Seems more up your alley.
No skin off my back, right?

Stupid MODERATOR tag? Really, you'll get no sympathy from me. Your distaste for the tag reminds me, if you want a Bills reference, to Trey Teagues initial displeasure to his unwanted swicth to the center position. I thank the football Gods he has sucked it up and accepted his role. We're all better off for it.

Sorry, to me, your moderator tag, unwanted by you or not, designates more than just a simple request to leave than if you were a common laymember. It is 'bullyenism'.

Did it warrant a post titled "Dear P..." on the Hardcore forum?

[Stealth01]

Well, interpret it any way you want, Sahlens. Personally, I think this board would be better off without BOTH of you. Maybe you and Pedro can go whine to each other on Bills-Zone.com or something.
