Keepitreal, arguably the best QB, didn't you mean to say the best qb. I am just playing. I was excited about a potential pro league and I knew about the T-Bolts. We talked as well. There is never any harm with exploring the product they are selling. Just like I want to explore the UFL. I believe I could go there and compete at that level. All I am saying is I would love to play in a pro league, and if the UFL or indoor came to Portland you would see me on that team.

That standings is garbage. No Renegades and after the lost the Vipers drop of the planet. What really gets me is the fact the Monarchs were #2 behind the Storm but magically dropped to #4. The Bears dropped also yet the Wolfpack are #17.....WTF? Their insulting our league and treating us like the WAC. But didn't you say regional competition don't mean shit, its' winning at the national level that matters? Well, there's your national level. lol You got me there.

John, stay in a reporters place. You have no idea what goes through the mind of a real baller. Stay taking pics and writing, that's what you are good at. I'm not sure what my not understanding the mind of a "real baller" has to do with me, and many others, having you figured out. Nobody has any idea what goes through your mind, including yourself. Your actions speak from themselves and never seem to match your explanations. Do all "real ballers" jump to great teams, continually remind everyone of their legendary status, and try to coerce teams from other leagues into playing their team?

You did what all haters do and ignored the question at hand. Is Russ inadequate and insecure? Is Bernard? Those are 2 TRUE BALLERS. Im done talking about myself or what I accomplished, its about my Cobra team. Remember, I know you as a hater from WAY BACK! You talk shit about me, but I remember Kenny Austin didnt like your ass. Thats why all the hard feelings. I remember when he kicked your big picture taking ass off our sideline! LOL. I also remember how you wete huddled up with the Buffalo Gladiators before our National Championship in 2000. Please, miss me with your garbage...

Bull I think you've taken too many hits to the head.
Why are YOU changing the subject? Are you a hater or am I hitting too close to home?
Russ explored the option and chose NOT to jump. I don't remember Bernard telling us that he's a legend.

I just love to play a game I'm good at I don't care about all the extra bullshit. I didn't jump and don't know anything about prior teams or legends or any other bullshit, I just know what I bring to the field.

Toro, you prove my points every time you type.i So you recruited arguably the best QB in the Northwest to play for a Tacoma team when he lives in Portland? What on earth would lead him to play for a team three hours away? What were you promising him? I wonder, do Portland teams recruit in Tacoma or Seattle. Did the Bears seek out any Vipers or Raiders? Did the Vipers attempt to seduce any Bearcats? I swear, this would be laughable if it weren't so sad. "My title is director of recruiting." That title should be stripped. You can't recruit,_ dude. You're not a recruiter. You're a pimp. Take away the promises to the wanna-be pros and the no player fee and you would have jack shit on the Cobras. I didn't have to pursue one of the best qbs in the NW too hard. Keepitreal, he contacted me cuz he liked what he saw when he saw us. So its our fault he wanted to play with us? Don't get mad that your. Qb showed interest in us. It's easy to "recruit" when you offer things nobody else does. You represent what would happen if UO or UW were thrust into D-III but still had 80 scholarships compared to zero for the rest. Then you have the nerve to run around bragging, boasting and challenging the very teams you rape, or attempt to rape?? And you do so by stating "we just want to play the best." Feel free to add......"after we rap your roster." I didnt have to try too hard to recruit "one of the best qbs in the NW. He contacted me cuz he liked what he saw when he saw us. So its our fault he wanted to play with us? Not everybody shares in your hate of us. Dont get mad cuz your qb expressed interest in us. And I never promised anybody anything I couldnt give them when recruiting players, and all I can give them is the most competitive atmosphere in the NW. So stop with the promising players shit. Its tired... Would you stop with the "your QB" stuff. I don't have a team or a QB. Geez! Anyway, What exactly did this QB see in you? And if he liked what he saw, why didn't he sign? He probably was seduced by the fantasy of playing for pay. Then discovered there was no pay and backed off because you really have nothing to offer. Hell, you don't play any games. LOL I'm sure he would have loved going to Boise with 20 guys. What fun.

Stay taking pics and writing, that's what you are good at. John's statements were 100 percent accurate. He's seen enough of this circus to know the livestock have fleas.

All I am saying is I would love to play in a pro league, and if the UFL or indoor came to Portland you would see me on that team. LOL The T-Bolts? LOL Well, we all know how that ended. And there are no players in the PFL that would make a UFL roster. YOu people are kidding yourselves. Throwing 40 TDs in the PFL doesn't mean jack shit to real pros. You're a very good semi-pro QB, obviously, by your stats. But UFL teams sign former NFL players, not former mediocre college players who pad stats in semi-pro football games. No offense...just keeping it real. It's that type of mentality and backward thinking that NOONE is referring to. Guys in semi-pro thinking they are more than they are. Play for fun, not for unrealistic glory that will never come. If more players and coaches did that, there wouldn't be as many problems as there are and we wouldn't see train wrecks like the Cobras, made up of fantasy chasers, seduced by a "director of recruiting."

There you go again. YOU are lying cuz I never lied to a recruit to bring him here. I do agree with your assessment of semi pro players thinking they are better than they are.

I amended my post. But to even think about getting players from 3 hours away you must be trying to offer something that can't get where they are. Correct? And considering you have a weak schedule and went to a game with 20 players, whatever it is you were selling has not come to fruition. Here's the thing, though, Toro.....I don't mind what you guys were TRYING to do - as foolhardy as it might appear to have been - I just mind that you did it while thumbing your nose at the rest of the semi-pro world as if they are beneath you. In the end, you're essentially just another semi-pro team yourself, just one without a viable schedule.

Thumbing my nose at semipro??? Dude, I played almost 20 years of semi pro! I gave alot of my life to semipro, and LOVE the game. I am on a semi pro board! I really dont care WHAT league my team is in, I just want to play games. Im not into all that political shit. If we can do like Notre Dame and play all the best teams around with no questions or drama, thats what I personally would like. It will be tough to build another team like we built this season, ask Coach Ced. I hope we can do it again though, time will tell...

You thumbed your nose at semi-pro when you raided other team's players and then badgered them in attempts to get them to play you while telling them they couldn't touch the MONSTER you created.
How many PDFL teams are there along the I-5 corridor? The Cobras. What does PDFL stand for "professional development football league."
I'm repeating myself here but.....You guys were selling something different than the teams your players used to play for then turned around and challenged those teams. And did it while chest pounding.
That's thumbing your nose at the rest of semi-pro.

Keep it real your point is very true and Toro you yourself said those things in your post. I'm not getting in this pissing match but what's true is true. Even some players did the same in claiming they would spank all the teams in the Northwest.
People realize this is just football for fun and that's it, nothing more. It's an excuse for us to play something we love and escape our lives for a couple hours on a weekend, or just being able to hang out with the fellas. Their is no reason to pump chest and do what is done, yet it still happens. This is no bigger than then my hoop league I play in or any other rec league we participate in. In the end their all the same and when the game is over nobody really gives a damn.
