[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 3159717, member: 23516"] There are people who engage in wild, mindless speculation about things they know nothing about. Call them whatever you want. I call them the peanut gallery. YMMV. I took my kid to an autograph signing for our NFL team. There was another fan there talking with either the team's GM or VP of something, telling him who they should trade, draft, release and which plays they should run, and so on. My kid said the guy sounded like he knew a lot of football talk. My reply was that if he knew what he was talking about, he wouldn't be wearing a jersey standing in line waiting for an autograph like the rest of us -- he'd be working in the NFL. TL;DR: People on the outside don't know what they're talking about, and that's why they're on the outside. Thanks for your valuable, informed advice! [/QUOTE]
