?

If we miss by one game, is CJ's holdout the reason?

    Yeah, he took it too far in CJ's favor. No further than you take it against CJ though. You're just as ridiculous.

    It's the poll question but it's clear you aren't going to admit that you are wrong.

    No biggie, I wouldn't have wanted the $ anyway. But you did word the question as an absolute as many people besides me pointed out.

    If you think we would have lost anyway then that's that... I personally find it hard to think a prepared, and camp-hardened CJ doesn't make up a Field Goal difference in that game. Not only does he play better, but the team also then has an entire camp to get used to working with him rather than his stand-in (Ringer).


    The forum doesn't allow me to change the title - as for clarification purposes I would have made it "If CJ doesn't hold out do we win Game one?" after getting bombarded with those semantics posts. Alas, we're stuck with it..
    Close to 30 people draw that line all the way to = playoff exclusion regardless.

    Because a lot of people have turned against CJ because of the holdout and are hating on him regardless AND you worded the questions favorably towards the outcome you wanted.

    I mean seriously, the "no" option is ridiculous with the "it has no bearing."

    I think it has bearing, so what's my option? I just went with the most ridiculous one.

    And you've had three days to clarify your stance. Sorry, the poll doesn't allow me to edit to include "Alex' preferred" choice..

    As I have stated here several times - my query was intended to find out if people think The Titans win game one if CJ doesn't hold out..

    Hey it don't really matter to me. But if that what was all you wanted to know you did about as terrible a job as possible of wording your question.

    Yes I think we would have won game one. But would CJ be this fresh to make this late push and carry us like he has the past few Ws?

    I'm sorry the wording offends you Alex. As stated several times the forum doesn't allow you to change the subject or poll questions after the fact.
    I would think the topic of a holdout being a reason the team doesn't make the playoffs worthy of debate on a team forum.
    We did in fact get 17 pages out of it.
