How much of what we are hearing...

it seems like though they can say 100 things about me but i say 1 or 2 and thats hypocrisy.

Okay Alex, from reading this exaggeration, it doesn't seem like what I wrote is getting through to you. now you're on notice.
 
For me it wasn't a carry over from espn at all. I used to not say anything about alex and had no problem with him at all. The he started putting "me negative" after every single one of my posts. Then his weekly mock drafts, "how does that make you feel" posts, and random polls made him an easy target to fire back at whenever he felt it necessary to call me out.
 
Kaline,

Full respect for you brother, and for the things you do for the board obviously.

But the internet is a place to share ideas and thoughts. Doesn't matter if you're black, white, gay, straight, christian, atheist, muslim, or from the planet Ketow in the fourth constellation of Osiris.

The words you attach to a post are what matters. People salute intelligence. People slap idiocy. It's the way the internet is and always has been, and always will be. The weak minded are eaten alive.

There used to be an old rule on forums that is long forgotten now... Lurk, Listen, Learn. We used to say it to people so they could learn how to involve themselves in a conversation before they did and said stupid things that made them the target of people's ire.

Alex should have learned.

Thankyou inkfreq.
He should have by now. This board always takes care of itself with damn near every regular. From the posters here who know football and the Lions inside out, to the less informed.
After so much, the chronic complaining gets tuned out.
 
Very nice how much??!? People still say that right?

Im supposed to agree with people that dont agree with me? And you have it twisted....when someone doesn't agree with me they throw an insult in....then I retaliate by throwing it right back at them. That is typical message board banter and is completely tolerated. Then you chime in, add nothing to the conversation, have no opinion on the matter, and typically toss in a subtle insult of your own. Thats just ignorance spewing out and taking up space on the page.

no offense man but i've seen you throw out the first insult on more then one occasion

Alex, be honest...there aren't times you go back and read what you posted and think "wtf?" Like last month how you started a conversation about If we trade up for watkins who should we take at 10? Or this thread....you dont find it remotely trivial asking "how much of what were hearing is smoke?" Big corporations say all the time how out of every 1000s of ideas we get, it only takes 1 good idea to make change throughout the system.....its kinda like that with your posts but were still waiting for that 1 that will actually mean something or at least have some sort of relevance.
 
insulting somebody for a thread is pretty low though. getting information isn't stupid or dumb

that's just it though. we're just fans with no affiliation with the club at all. how the hell are we supposed to know how much is legit info vs. a smoke screen? you need to start thinking rationally before you post a question like this.

and as rarely as i agree with hughes, i fully agree with him on this matter. there have been more than enough times where you have brought absolutely nothing worth while to the subject... no info, no opinion, nothing but a weak insult (if that's even what it was supposed to be). you have a brain, use it.

*EDIT*
and hughes, i want to officially apologize for my comments and insults yesterday. they were out of line, and i took my bad day out on you personally. so i'm sorry.
