Soooo, you’re judging him on his favorite movie, that he would watch WITH HIS GRANDMA?? The nickname came because it’s what his grandma called him, and I’m sure it brings him good memories of those times spent with his grandma. Why pick on the guy for that??

Just watched again and In the video he says it’s because he had an Afro growing up, so he looked like a lion, and his aunt called him Simba because of that.

I disagree with Spiff's movie stance, as a Marvel/DC nerd I am strongly against judging people for their preferred film selection unless it involves something out of bounds... But I think he doesn't like Haskins for many reasons, the Lion King movie aspect is just icing on the cake for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. No, I don't like Haskins because he can't hit open backs in the flat and because he seems to have an attitude problem. His nickname isn't the straw that's breaking the camel's back here, it was already broken pretty badly. 1 minute ago, KDawg said: I disagree with Spiff's movie stance, as a Marvel/DC nerd I am strongly against judging people for their preferred film selection unless it involves something out of bounds...

Hooper Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 You would think the Rams would be interested if KOC was a fan. They have no one behind Goff and they could try to pry Haskins for a mid-rounder. But apparently they haven't called. Telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably because no team is going to be interested, unless they're going to give him a shot to be a starter, or maybe even promise it. Because Haskins is only going to want to go to a team, that will make him starter. If the Rams trade for Haskins, they'll have the same dilemma as us.

Conn Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 1 hour ago, Darrell Green Fan said: Your posts remind me of the posters who actually believed SM was not at the combine because weeks later he was still grieving the death of his 130 year old grandmother. Look I'm not saying he is not sick, just that's it is a very distinct possibility and you are nuts to instantly dismiss the possibility given all the evidence you have been presented with. Is he there today? My god I forgot about the Scot’s Grandmother saga, incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a silly reason to hate the guy. Everything else you mentioned are valid reasons to hate the guy. Your thought process as it pertains to people's thought on Haskins seem on the surface fairly naive to the majority of people who are reading this thread, I think. I think you're a genuine dude who tries to see the best in people, based on your posts. And in today's society where empathy is sorely lacking from pretty much all corners of the globe for many different reasons, it's a refreshing thing to see. What I would hope you can see in these threads, and the common responses to you, are that while you are genuine you read too far into little comments people make at times. Human beings nitpick the **** out of things that people who they don't like do. If you were Spiff's bestie, and you happened to like Lion King, he'd rip on you for it... but it wouldn't be listed as a reason to think you're not a quality dude. In this case, Spiff is using that argument to prop up that Haskins has a maturity issue. If Haskins operated like, say, Patrick Mahomes and liked Lion King, it's a laughing moment but it's not a "wtf. You act immature and you're a Lion King enthusiast. Of course you are!" kind of thing. Keep being you, dude. But stay away from telling people you liked "The Notebook", I'm not sure you can recover from that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 @KDawg I’m not the only one who disagreed with his movie stance though, and I’m also not the only one who thought the nickname was a silly reason for him to pile on the guy...... two others on this very page were also disagreeing.
