@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.

Sorry.

Like everything you said besides the comment about younger fans for no reason.

What did I say about younger fans?

That they know everything?

You a parent?

Keep on double spacing! It is so much easier to read than a run-on paragraph(s) without a punctuation mark to be found

Those are the ones where you stare hard and eventually spot a boat in them.

 

[ShiningStar]

at the end of teh day, we should remember we are all cowboy fans and insults to each other are beneath us. This is why i never bothered you wth your spacing, i have not walked your path.

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?

Do whatcha gotta do, buddy. I've got some of the same health issues. Sometimes, it seems like I swallow more pills than food.

The complaints don't get to me as much as the name calling and personal attacks. That really chaps my hide. It seems like people today cain't disagree without wallowing in the slop like hogs.

I actually prefer double spacing myself. It's easier to read and makes for more concise points.

Thank you for sharing.

Red, we squared accounts a very long ways back.

My sincere prayers will always be with you.

I recall the Star War 'years' on the net and still tire of burn barrel buddies and their Ripple motivated talks...but alas, if a person does little Cowboy observation and a ton of insult and gripe...ignore can be useful.

I enjoy your posts, and for us real fans, the more by yourself...the better: Beat the Colts!

 

[CowboyMort]

You do you Redball. Double spacing etc doesn't bother me a bit.

 

[Montanalo]

Thanks @Redball Express. Although totally unnecessary, I do appreciate your taking the time to explain. To be honest, I thought it (the double spacing) was just your style and thought nothing more about it than that.

Regardless the spacing, I enjoy your contributions to this site.. from one Cowboy fan to another, thanks and all the best.

 

[LandryFan]

Keep on double spacing! It is so much easier to read than a run-on paragraph(s) without a punctuation mark to be found

Yep, there are a couple of posters that do that and I've learned who they are and simply scroll right past them.

Dang, Jake...you gotta thing for hogs? I think this is the second post from you I've read today that referenced swine.

 

[Nightman]

Keep on Keeping on

 

[Tangle_Foot]

God bless you Red ball, don't let others affect you, definitely not the negative posters. There will always be some who critique everything. I've even seen some tell others on the game Day menu that they're cooking their food wrong, as if they were invited Just. keep doing you

 

[Reality]

Exactly

 

[SoBlue128]

You are obviously a very strong individual that has succeeded at life in spite of all the setbacks. Don’t ever let some keyboard cowboy get in your way of you being you. Post on and share your thoughts as you wish fellow fan
