Enough With The Stable Analogy!

[PalmBeachSooner]

For one, it's older than dirt. Two, the analogy is kinda demeaning. If I were a black guy I'd be insulted if someone referred to me as a thorougbred and I belonged in a stable. I'm not an animal! It congers up images of slavery.

There! I said it!

OK. Maybe I have an overactive imagination, but I can't believe I'm the only one. And it's the off season and there's not enough rumors, inuendos and half-truths on this board to keep me entertained during my lunch hour.

Great, now I'm going to have to change the whole way I talk to my husband.

If stable has been ruled out, what is the proper term for a strong group of players at a certain position?

Is it herd? covey? herd? pack? array? pod? horde? colony? flock? pride? colony? swarm?

What is it? I am lost.

So what's your analysis of our fine stable of quarterbacks heading into the 2012 season?

[starclassic tama]

it has nothing to do with race, if anything it has to do with the fact that running backs run long distances. i wonder how toby gerhart felt about being referred to as part of a "stable" of backs

[WA. Sooner]

If that is the worst thing to happen to him, he has led a very charmed life and will get over it or not.

You just went there...! Hilarious!

[cccasooner2]

Steed will be a nice addition to our stable of punters.

[cleller]

I would not mind one bit being referred to as a thoroughbred. Have you looked closely at those things? Beautiful, muscular perfection. Majestic.

If it is intended as a compliment, its a compliment.

We also have a fine stable of quarterbacks.

[C&CDean]

Meh. This thread is going nowhere good.
