Hearing about the successes of our relentless propaganda campaign always warms our hearts, comrade.

that is an interesting theory you've got there

i would hope that one would pick up some details

i would also hope one would remain humble enough to admit that perhaps, sometimes, there are some details that are quite hard to grasp if you haven't ever attempted, ever, to do the things that you are watching

and more importantly, it's not cool to act like people who actually coach/play are stupid stupid meatheads, and make fun of them for using their credentials in an argument, and then turn around and use "years watching football on tv" as support for your own argument. it's the same exact tactic, just from a different angle.

after years of dismissing anyone who has any real experience playing football or coaching football by comparing them to joe morgan and making meathead cracks, implying that people who play the sport that provides your living are idiots, you are now using - as a trump card of sorts - that you have "watched a lot of football", presumably in stands and on television, and that makes you the undisputed expert? 

you were a lot more humble in the early days. 

it wasn't meant as a slap in the face

seth and i were discussing on twitter that the WLA hasn't been any sort of presence, here or on our own main site, for almost three years. but it was being trotted out as a collective and THE PROBLEM, even though only a couple people with affiliation to that blog were involved. i felt, and i think seth agreed, that dismissing the people like the poster above as crazy because WLA IS CRAZY wasn't a fair assessment of the situation - many people had issues, and the vast majority had nothing to do, ever, with the WLA. so WLA was distracting from whatever the real issue was. 

i truly dont remember this

but i'm a semi functioning alcoholic

that doesn't mean it didn't happen

i think it's more than fair to criticize whatever people think wla is/was/will be for many things, for the record

things change and people change

we shut up about rr when it went downhill and we were more wrong than can be wrong about that, and it essentially ended that little experiment. give the wla-boogeyman some credit for sucking it up and going away when our three years of hoopla ended up being a gator bowling

is that south or west of monday 

africa? 

it's all so cold

is it not 2009?

you see brother, what we've come to know, is that it's ok to think that

in the days before

we held ourselves blameless, above them all, confident in our ways

that doesn't mean we knew the truth

the words may have changed

that's because the attitude changed

we wanted to build a new world

but there was no need

i say it again - this isn't a revolution

it's the end of times

salvation in the past

glory in the future

follow the buzzards

the revolution you all speak of

it went down with the leader

it went down with the gator bowlin'

and we accepted our fates and moved on

we learned and we grew

and we accepted the new

our brothers and sisters didn't sell out the rich rod

the rich rod sold us out with his failings

but showed the error of our ways at the time

for our lot was cast with the man

and not the brand

we return to the brand

because with the brand

time is on our side

follow the buzzards, brother

you see there's no attack

just a message

you don't see it all around you

but you will someday

when you step afoul of the men in power

then you'll see it clear as day

it ain't brainwashing

it's brain washing

lift the covers off your eyes and take a peek

they want you down where you are

they don't want you to think

or question

or challenge

we aren't better than you

and you aren't better than us

but we're all better than them

time is on our side

brothers and sisters

i don't ask for followers

we ask for brothers

calm down

there are different folks in this world

folks who dream

and never leave the couch

folks who dream

and fail

folks who dream

and change the world

but what are you

you're a world changer

a world eater

aren't ya'll tired of being stepped on?

feelin' like an outcast cuz you don't share the mind of the men in the power seat?

ha ha

well

it might be your day

the day everything done changes

when you look at fear

and say 

MR FEAR

YOU ARE A LIAR

tell the leaders

tell the power

that the machine can't run forevah

furniture?

decoration?

you mean objects of decay?

we don't decay

we only grow

slowly

away from the power

in the hearts of brothers and sisters around the world

such hostility brother

but you know it's misguided

we aren't the enemy 

we aren't the power

we aren't the one who controls the lights

you'll see someday

you'll understand what it all means

you'll find your way brother

now you got it

but we're already dead

or you can join us

brother

oh control left the building a long time ago

see i was raised here 

hated our daddies

they were mean men

so were we

and one day i got plunked out

didn't want me playin' with the other kids

so i went off and i learned to read brother

i read the good book 

i read clifford

i read so much it turned to mush

but i learned things

from a far

like the world ain't go no use for a zealot 

and the world only exists to feed the appetitie of the powerful

they think they don't need us in their world

that we're trash

but lemme tell you brother

i ain't trash

ain't nobody trash

we're all better than the powerful

we're all capable

control 

that ain't nothin but a fancy way for the power to keep you down

burn control

ya'll say return

like something ever left

it's been inside all along

it's been crawling in the dirt

hiding in the trees

you think everything went away

but you were here

you're a part of it

a revolution doesnt exclude

an end doesn't discriminate

we came for the souls

of the hungry

you are the eaters of worlds

the power is in your hands

to make the powerful crumble

to make it burn

burn all around

you've all been lied to brothers and sisters

lies from day one

you think you know what a hero is

it's someone who makes you a forum 

you think you need approval or a pat on the back from the power

you don't need anything

you don't need handholdin or babysittin

you don't need nothin

they need you

what if i told you

the man who made it

made all around you

was a lie

that he don't want you

what if i told you

i'd never turn my back 

that the answers you need

the approval

is all around you

inside you

this isn't the truth

you are the truth 

a revolution is a beginning, brother

this ain't a beginnin'

it's an end

it's all a riddle man

everything is a riddle

do we get hand?

that's open to your thoughts

we're here

hand's been here

he's been here alllll allong

do you really think a fire could control the souls of our brothers?

we're everywhere

sooner or later that fire

that fire you call your own

it'll burn all around you

and it will be you

trapped in the flames

that fire fears us

it's afraid

but is it smart enough to know

it can never hurt us?

wanna hear a secret?

we're already dead

i have never laughed at something on mgo as much as i have laughed at this

i'm always watching you

rich rod doesn't come to your work and slap the dick out of your mouth, so how about you let the coaches do their jobs?

morons deserve to be treated like morons

so it's just the raging jealously then?

i can't believe you're missing glee to rag on tim

jealous much

has anyone on this board actually watched a lions game?

anyone got a spare can of olives

booze > food

northern mich is the closest thing to heaven on this earth

i'd rather be striking out at ricks than at home making fun of guys striking out at ricks
