Nah skip, I remember you offered up the possibility that those particular WR's affect how coaches use them, and them leaving means that coaches try to put too much pressure on their QB's, and I didn't call that ludicrous. Someone(s) suggested that the Vikins just fell apart for other reasons. I said that it would be really coincidental for them to happen to fall apart the season Moss left after they had a lot of personnel turnover and problems over the past 7 years. Yet, I didn't call it ludicrous.

I have been arguing the observational stuff. Notice how many times I've presented statistics--past performances. Notice that I've acknowledged the importance of pinpointing performances as best as we can (advanced statistics).

If it's a theory, fine, it's a theory. I do think that if Palmer leaves Johnson, Palmer will drop a lot of ratings points. So it's a theory. Happy now? But you're wrong in saying that I've treated other theories poorly. If someone just comes out and says, "You're wrong," then I could be harsh, but if someone comes out with something coherent--I can respect that. Something that others around here can't do...
