Ok..

Mods..please leave this thread up for a bit before you move it so readers can read.

I have been here for about 10 years.

Before that I did hand to hand posting on the Old Dallas Morning News postinga for the Cowboys.

That would be another 10 years.

Whew.

I say this because some posters seem to want to criticize me for my posts..

I have no problem with that.

But I get stuff about my spacing..

Double spacing..

3 years ago I had a major stroke and spent 6 months recovering.

I had brain surgery and it was touch and go.

I contracted pneumonia twice and had to go back to intensive care for a week each time.

I went from 220lbs to 150 during my stay.

Could not eat as everything tasted like metal becuz I had so many drugs in me.

I suffered kidney failure and lost one of my kidneys.

I have high BP and take 17 medications a day to control my issues.

I ended up with diabetes and inject insulin.

I have glaucoma and it's hard to read typing for me.

So to help it..I double space so I can read what I post.

Some of you have complained but I addressed the double spacing with the heads of the site..Winicki, Hostile and Brainpaint and they agreed it's OK with the double spacing.

They did not know.

I am permanently disabled now but I overcome it best I can.

I obviously am a long time and loyal fan of this team.

My family has owned 4 season tickets since 1965 to today.

They are on the 20 yard line below the pressbox in ATT Stadium.

At an average cost of over $4000/ yr. plus parking and food..

I and my brothers have put our money where our mouths are for years to be here.

That's it.

If I offend you guys..

very sorry.

But please stop all the silly comments about posting you think need my English teacher needs to see.

I am 65 years old. Hope that does not offend the younger fans who know everything and will tell you.

Haha.

Thanks for your time.

You guys are the best.

My prediction..

Dallas 45-Colts 17.

We will be NFC Champs in 2 days.

Who would have thought this?

Show of hands?

Dude...when people complain just remind yourself that some people are alive simply because it's against the law to kill them.

Post away any way you wish.

Sometimes I find double spacing much easier to read...but then, I'm getting old.

Thank you sharing I wish you the best and maybe I don’t agree with your posts always appreciate other opinions.


I haven’t been here as long but I don’t understand the hate people have just because of differing opinions aren’t we all Cowboys fans after all?

You can just put them on ignore and never see anything else they post or reply to you. That's what I do and it is such a relief.

Other than that, get well with all that is going on with you and........... How bout dem Cowboys

Man if our civility is held hostage by double spacing I really fear for mankind.

I with you the best on your health issues.

Sometimes there are difficult people in this world. Some of them are here on this site. It wouldn't surprise me that the personalities displayed here are latent to their characters, and they just can't help themselves.

Ignore them. I'm fairly certain the rest of the people surrounding them also do it. Peers at work. Their family members. Etc.

People who display rude behaviour can't help themselves. Double space away.

@Irvin88_4life provided good advice. Click on a member's avatar when they direct nonsense your way. The small box will appear with the Ignore link. Click Ignore and you are done. Nonsense go *POOF*!

Of course, this easily accessible site aid does not filter out moderator nonsense posts.
