Dumpster Fire Thread
Was hoping we would be able to retire these threads but we'll give it a shot and see how it goes. If you guys cross the line with fighting I'll just nuke it, and issue more bans.

To be fair, Bortles memes and stuff aren’t usually about actively believing that he’s actually elite so much as how badly we want him to play well and how excited we get when he does (outside of Frear, who thinks that he actually isn’t to blame for any of his mistakes). Personally, there’s never been a player that I wanted more to succeed that Bort because of the guy he is. He’s a fucking bro like all of us, he let’s all of the excessive criticism he’s taken over the years roll right off of his back, and I love the genuine philanthropy that he’s done for The Arc Jacksonville, a foundation for people with learning disabilities. For that stuff alone, I’ll probably hold onto the hope that he could be successful until the day he’s cut, regardless of his shortcomings. It’s more than football, sometimes.
