Watch out for the “One flavor” opinion forum

[Corso]

There's a description for people that like to label others because they know best.

I label you...
I label you InTheZone. I sure hope you're ashamed of yourself.

I think the worst is when people insinuate that there is an "agenda" for some people not being all in on a certain player. It's clear what they're trying to say that "agenda" is, but since they're not allowed to use the word, they keep repeating "agenda", in the hopes that the mere thought of being "agenda based" in that way will make the other poster stop stating his opinion. It's a cheap, dirty, cowardly tactic, and there's no place for it...anywhere.

So you’re saying there are gray areas?

Now Mr. 22 Flavors Bob Hazes... I'm not so sure about some of the flavors your establishment is serving >.>

As long as that cactus flavor doesn’t have cactus spikes in it, I might try it, lol.

One of my favorite statements of intolerance of differing opinions starts with “you must not watch the games”.

That, and "since you clearly don't no anything about football". (I intentionally misspelled "know".)

Almost any statement that starts with, “You must not...” is a slippery slope. An unsavory flavor of gelato so to speak.

Stating that they hope the team loses, just for the sake of losing or something to that effect is not being a fan, but even hoping they lose so they can get a better coach or draft pick is hoping for something better, and thereby rooting for the team..... albeit in their own way.

meh I disagree theres a small percentage but all they do is complain for 12months about ALL things Blue and silver and some of us CHOOSE to have an opinion they are NOT Fans..see how that fits lol

they IMO are wolves(philly fans) in sheep clothing,.. they claim to be DC fans but just come here to !@#$%^&! and complain about them..

I can't say that's an impossibility for one or two posters...... but I think some are just incredibly hard to please, or they say things they know will get the approval of some of the more aggressive posters.

Great post. I agree, the differences of opinion on here only serve to make it a more interesting place, AND occasionally someone will educate me and change my mind.

The main thing that bothers me is when fans are unnecessarily rude or mean spirited towards other (Cowboy) fans. We are all Cowboy fans, there is at least some small brotherhood we share there. We (self included) should make more of an effort to be good to one another.

Some of the best posts for me are the ones that challenge my thinking. Looking at the team from an angle I hadn’t thought of is good medicine.

This forum has been like this for years and if it seems worse this offseason it's only because the QB of the Dallas Cowboys is a free agent.

There have also always been these threads that pop up in times like these where the OP mildly chastises the behavior of forum users, and then lots of users chime in about how they agree, and then nothing changes.

There are far too many posts that challenge my thinking, but not in the way you mean.

 

[Redball Express]

Some are haters because all they do every thread, every post, every day is come here and hate on something. Some of them are posting in this thread trying to come off like saints.

Very true.

My first wife told me shortly after we married..

that she was broken. I asked her about what.

She said most of her life she had reacted to negative things in her life..

that she did not always see the good parts of life.

She said that was why she married me. Because I made her see positive things even when she could not.

I smiled at her and told her the reasons I liked her was she was good in bed. At first she liked the answer but after awhile she asked this question frequently.

The truth really was becuz of her money. I liked that she worked and b/w hers and mine, we were fine.

The point is people are funny. They can be positive or negative about something but most of the time we hide our true feelings.

Whether it matters or not depends on whether they are good at sex or not. I only deal with females BTW.

I keep it stupid and simple.

But it's "different" when they do it, because they agree with themselves.

90%

Edit: I agree with your edited post.

 

[DasSchnitzel]

90%?

I edited my post because I too felt I was being too strong.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I sense a "hidden agenda" here.

LOL... I sense the frustration of years over the road in the Eastern United States.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I even had a poster take me off Ignore to tell me he was sending me back. That's going the extra mile.

Sounds more like going the extra mile on a 20 ft. stretch of road.

Edited my reply. lol

 

[Runwildboys]

Ya know, it's OK not to like someone. But if you find that really does influence your posts, better to just avoid them. I've never used the Ignore feature but I've had threats from others to send me there. I even had a poster take me off Ignore to tell me he was sending me back. That's going the extra mile.

I think Reality should serve these posters better and actually have a PM sent to a poster put on Ignore "Dear CouchCoach, this will serve as formal notice that ____________ has exercised their right to Ignore you. Please do not try to contact this Member and stay at least 10 posts away. If this Member decides to forgive your impudence and actually acknowledge your existence once again, you will be contacted. As a reminder, it is against the rules to Ignore this Member now as the Ignorer has the first right of Ignoring over the Ignoree".

If Reality sent you a formal notice, you'd just ignore it...........PJG lives!!!
