your vag sure is sore over something that had nothing to do with you. my point is, i don't give a flying fuck what you think the mods should and should not do here, and if you think people are being singled out, treated unfair, or not shown proper respect by mods or anyone else, that is a you thing, not an us thing.
You mean like last night when he left Oden in several minutes longer than usual when he was hot in the first quarter? Some of you I know are peeved about Nate's foul-and-you-leave rule. I still don't think you can just allow a player to go in and play till they foul out and actually learn anything but I guess we're just on different pages there.
The NBA is all about timing and learning to deal with adversities. Oden will eventually have to deal with foul problems, but the fouls he had last night seemed warranted. They are what big men do. Nothing was ticky-tac they were all just and I would want him to play that aggressively. Eventually, the Refs will give him the benefit later on in his career. But hey, if you are fine with him not being fully utilized and him bolting to a team that will, then go right ahead.
Would you like to place a wager on him bolting because he's not being fully utilized? They were ticky-tac all over the place last night. You still didn't address the fact that Nate left Oden in quite a long time last night when he was effective and only took him out when he was winded. But hey, I guess with all of your knowledge having trained so many NBA athletes, I guess you're entitled to think you know it all.
I for one am sorry to see chris' post. We're in a tough situation since there are people of all stripes here. It's not some invite-only social club - I don't think many of us would find that to be much fun. If we did try and restrict some people (the naysaying naybobs of negativism) from posting because of their views, we'd piss off half the people. If we came down on the kool-aid drinkers, we'd piss of the other half. We do have the ability to make a couple of subforums, one for each group, and the mods could move or delete the posts that don't belong in each. Whatever we can do to facilitate everyone being happy, we're willing to do. We're open to reasonable suggestions. Feel free to PM me or one of the mods or post any ideas you have along those lines.
Always.... I don't drink though, but I will buy you a couple cold ones. Or maybe luke warm ones, if you are English.
I think if you eliminated one group or the other or tried to segment it out it would lose some of its appeal. The one feature that people have access to at all times is ignore.
Not English. Irish, German, and a little Scottish. In spite of my heritage, I like my beer light, cold, and made in the Rocky Mountains.
Seriously LOTBfan my "vag" isn't sore over anything. You responded to my post and I replied back. I did it politely and calmly. You're the one who seems to have an issue with what and how I replied to you. I haven't insulted anyone. Now you seem to be trying to turn this into something personal. I get your point, you don't give a flying fuck about what I think. So why do you keep replying. Again, I'm not insulting anyone. Not insulting you.
pay people to post here, then there will be impetus to stick around, even when you dislike the content!
Just proving to you that you do give a flying fuck about what I have to say. If you didn't you wouldn't have replied.
i am simply narcissistic, i would reply to anyone, regardless of the content, i am just that flying fuck free.
I don't have much to say about the original post (anyone is free to come and go depending on whether the place is fun for them), but I agree with this post. I don't think this community needs "cheerful" and "angsty" ghettos. The whole point of (most) communities is for disparate perspectives to mix, creating an interplay. Just ignore the people whom you don't enjoy reading. If the whole forum is getting you down, then just step away and enjoy watching the games without all the fights over what is going well or badly.
