re: Brian Kelly didn't learn his lesson, moving Harold Perkins back to ILB again

Again, you’re using those terms with no understanding of what you’re saying. There is no such thing as a tweener LB. When projecting a certain player to the next level, there can be confusion as to what his position will be, hence the label. The linebacker position has much more coverage responsibilities now and you are confused because you’re using silly terms like “enforcer linebacker” and whatnot.

Again, it is you that doesn't understand terms. BTW, when did I ever use the term "tweener LB"? Oh yeah, I didn't, so quick making up terms and applying them to me. The term tweener obviously states that it is a player who unfortunately is not perfectly pegged for a position. Since you have problems understanding football, I will help you out.

Tweener: a player who can't qualify completely for some position due to liabilities in that position. For example: Harold Perkins is not strong enough or big enough to be a LOS rusher just lining up there. Perkins is also not strong enough to take on and dispense with blockers and therefore tackle consistently enough to play a run stopping LBer position. As far as a safety type, his pass coverage skills aren't quite up to those those standards yet at least.

Thus, the term tweener. As far as "enforcer LBer", I'm talking a tough, strong, sure tackling LBer. These are not difficult concepts. In addition to "Football for Idiots" find a book like "Understanding English". You are presenting yourself like a damn fool!
