LOL, man up? Omg you're a joke man. What's there to man up about? It was OBVIOUS that I was exaggerating, and if you cant figure that out on your own, you're a ******bag. (In case you can't figure it out, I was trying to say Atogwe is a much better player then Hamlin)

Nope, won't work... not when you followed that up with claiming (presumably seriously) that Ed Reed was indeed "4x" better than Hamline...

get on my level.

Sorry, I need those extra 60 IQ points... if I lost them, I might also have to have words bleeped out of every other post... :D

no big guy, I'll teach you a thing or two. Let me know when you wanna get on my level. You need a ladder? And 'everyone'? Only people who seem to think that are you and your **** buddy, casmith.

Actually, I think a lot of readers are getting a pretty clear picture of you, and your posting style:

1) You engage in hyperbole with some frequency, presumably because you lack the intelligence to state your opinion with clarity...

2) You get pretty thin-skinned in a hurry when you're criticized (amusingly, this even happens when you agree with the criticism levelled"... it would appear that Mommy and Daddy convinced Junior that his feces don't smell bad...

This is a kind of arrogance...

3) You have a semi-foul mouth... again, this suggests a limited intellect...

4) You seem to be a dedicated Cowboys fan, which makes me inclined to excuse some of your faults... LOL...

Oh and Hos, sb's little diatribe is exactly what Bob is talking about. Its not a bad thing to have friends who back you up, btw.

Internet friendships ROCK!

I look forward to the day when someone can agree with me without being accused of being my follower.

Well, that's the down side of being an Oracle, Hos...

But you're right, it's too bad that some people substitute the word "follower" for the more accurate word "friend"...

Me, I think for myself, and one of the things I think is that you're my friend, so when somebody gets to rippin' on you, as a friend I tend to want to get in the ruckus...

It helps that you're ALMOST always right... :D

IOW, let 'em call me a "follower", I don't really give a rat's patootie... those pissants have no power to affect my self-image...

With all due respect, you don't know what the hell you are talking about. I am sorry people agree with me from time to time. I will try not to ever let that happen again. I control no man's thoughts. I expect no back up on any point I post. If people do, that is their choice. I consider you a friend, and we often disagree. jterrell and I were always disagreeing and I consider him a friend. dcfanatic and I disagree all the time and I consider him a friend.

I was talking about intelligent points and how to make them. 4 times better doesn't cut it. If you think it does, then by all means knock yourself out.

He's not 30 or older. So he doesn't get the join the overgrown, high-school clique.

Bobby, your thing with "cliques" in here is beyond bizarre... I mean, it's not like you're not part of a clique of your own, with me, bbgun, Yeager et al constantly poking fun at you...

Do you think we do that because we dislike you?? Well, OK, maybe Yeag, but the rest of us are just goofing on ya... which means you're part of our "clique"...

So it seems that your problem is not with cliques per se, you've just got a hard on (term du jour for this thread, I guess) for Hostile...

I am just saying that is what Bob s talking about. There are friends and then there are sycophants. I know you dont ask, want nor expect it but its there just the same.

Oh give me a break, bro. I have a ton of respect for you for but you with the grammar police routine has gotten really old.

There really is no difference between:

4 times better
a lot better
worlds better
a ton better
a billion times better

You knew exactly what he meant and all you are doing is criticizing the way that he expressed himself. To me thats a notch better than criticizing someone who speaks english as a second language.

The bottomline is that no one who has been giving him **** has had any difficulty understanding what he meant. Your seriously starting to sound like a 6th grade english teacher.

And sorry if im being a jerk about this but the whole grammar police thing is a huge pet peeve of mine.

Only a moron has to resort to that kind of hyperbole to make his point... Hos is quite right about that, the steady diet of hyperbole we get fed around here gets tiresome...

Actually, more than coming to Hos' defense, I was annoyed by the arrogance of Canuck...

Arrogance often draws my attention, and a response...

Apparently there are some in here that think it is... I can only assume that it annoys them because they have no friends backing them up, ever...

Actually no using hyperbole doesn't mean your a moron now get your nose out of Hos' backside. Its a very common writing device.

Oh and learn what diatribe means. The two are by no means mutually exclusive.

I don't care if you guys pick on me. It's what guys do. My issue is with the constant pack mentality people have of harassing dissenting opinions. And it's the same group every time.

This is where I disagree. People use hyperbole's on this board all the time and don't get called out like he did. You and Hos knew exactly what he was trying to say, and because you didn't like hearing what he was saying, you were looking for any angle to start a war. The bottom line is, if you don't like the way somebody posts, THEN DON'T RESPOND TO HIM OR HER.

I totally reject that notion as nonsense. I get respect because I don't spout stupid stuff. Even if you think I am dead wrong am I ever stupid about it?

I have already gone over this within the thread and really have no wish to chew the same mouthfuls. I am not a cow and can't regurgitate a cud. If it offends you that I thought it was ridiculous, then it offends you that I thought it was ridiculous. I suppose I will live with your derision of it. I believe I will exercise my right to state things as I wish. I frequently do exactly as you do and jump on posts I find to be ridiculous. Should I find some pet peeve against your methods so we are even? Or can you live with my methods?

If not, thanks for a lot of great debates over the time we have jawed with each other. Oh, and I have always been irritated at sloppy grammar, spelling, and stuff like text message speak. It didn't start with me writing a book. My apologies that it offends you. I have a great many offensive habits. Honesty is one of them. I actually value and respect intelligence. That is why I have always taken our discussions as enjoyable even when we are sparring and completely disagree. My apologies. It is a habit I probably will not lose.

Chuckle... I'm always able to bait you without really trying... but really, "get your nose out of Hos' backside"?? I had come to expect better from you than THAT...

Hyperbole is indeed the weapon of choice for morons who lack the ability to express their true thoughts clearly... yeah, it can be used as a sarcastic tool by a skilled writer, but of course Canuck doesn't rise anywhere near that level...

If he did, he wouldn't have to rely on asterisks to edit his posts...

Finally, I'm quite aware of what "diatribe" means... and I don't recall disputing that what I wrote was one, so I'm not really clear what you meant by that line... indeed, most of my responses to Canuck have been diatribes, expressing one of my pet peeves, that being a complete inability to accept criticism, even when you acknowledge that you're wrong...

Only to guys in their clique, LOL... if I didn't like you, I wouldn't give you so much crap...

Seriously, there have been times when I felt like reminding you of that, when I thought maybe I'd crossed a line with you...


My issue is with the constant pack mentality people have of harassing dissenting opinions. And it's the same group every time.

Perhaps rather than being part of a clique, they have the same pet peeves...

Actually, my reason for "calling him out" was the ignorance of his response... I didn't really care all that much about his use of hyperbole there, I found it silly but not annoying... what I found annoying was his profanity-filled response to the criticism, even as he acknowledged that he "exaggerated"...

I didn't like that, so I gave him a piece of my mind... just as you didn't like what I did to him, and are now trying to give me a piece of yours...

How sad for you that I don't particularly care about your opinion of me...


The bottom line is, if you don't like the way somebody posts, THEN DON'T RESPOND TO HIM OR HER.

Said the man who didn't like my post, but responded to it anyway...

Hypocritize much?? :D
