The Jeff Ireland Poll

Discussion in 'SoapBox - Rants forum' started by shouright, Dec 6, 2012.

Why Do You Post About Jeff Ireland?

  1. I'm very angry he still has his job, and I need to vent.

    14.3%
  2. I can't believe some people think he shouldn't be fired, and I have to convince them otherwise.

    9.5%
  3. I believe if I post about it, Stephen Ross will somehow get the word and fire him.

    0 vote(s)
    0.0%
  4. The team is doing poorly, he's the reason why, and there's nothing else to talk about.

    28.6%
  5. I'm an idiot.

    38.1%
  6. I have no idea.

    Where's "He's doing a good job." or "he's so-so."

    :lol: I agree!

    Although at this point, as bad as it is, it's still better, more fun, and more entertaining than the protracted, beat-a-dead-horse debate about Jeff Ireland IMO, which at this point has become the "Worst. Discussion. Ever."

    We know where everybody stands, and we know why. Give it a rest already. Christ, the Jeff Ireland crap at this point should be moved to the rant forum, and you and your fellow mods should take a stand and be the ones doing it. There's nothing objective or otherwise good about it at this point. It's simply subjective venting with no benefit or end in sight, and no one involved stands to change his viewpoint because there can be no new, objective information to present that could sway anybody either way, or even be informative for that matter!

    In short, it's a worthless source of conflict that should be relegated to a forum in which subjective venting and conflict are more acceptable.

    And we do have one vote for "I'm an idiot." At least someone is being truthful. :lol:

    A Jeff Irleand poll is how you combat too much Jeff Ireland debate? Pretty sound logic...


    /note sarcasm.

    Thought this thread poll would be on whether we should make Jeff Ireland subforum or not.

    well... maybe we should move this to the rant forum because the options in the poll are rather one sided... that's why I don't like the poll. There should be an option to vote for "I don't think he should be fired... yet"

    BTW, I can't speak for everyone but I'd imagine the Jeff Ireland threads will probably exist as long as he is relevant to the Dolphins

    Feel free to move this to the rant forum as well, hopefully along with every other Jeff Ireland thread that springs up between now and whenever (if ever) he's no longer an issue. The horse is dead!

    And they can exist -- in the rant forum.

    Just like the guy who's going 45 in the passing lane. He can do that in the right lane, too. Get outta the way.

    Threads mocking the Ireland debate = Open.

    Threads with logical discussion regarding Ireland = Closed.

    Yeah that was heavy-handed to close that thread. If people don't want to discuss it, they won't.

    moved to Rants at Shou's request :wink2:

    it was escalating into a pissing match... so rather than just waste time (the thread was really going nowhere, there are plenty of other opportunities to post about Ireland) deleting posts that were attacks, I closed the thread.

    Approximatly 75% of all threads here escalate into a pissing match. People gotta urinate, y'all.

    At least that thread was an actual discussion about an actual REPORT with news about Jeff Ireland's job security. That discussion rates probably among the top 10% for totally on topic discussions.

    I'm suggesting a Jeff Ireland/Pat Riley sub forum.

    Your post is very lazy! I know a man who is similar to a moderator who is very lazy, but is he you? No. Someone else.

    Lazy.
