Enough

This whole thing started because zrinkill was upset there was no Bears vs Cowboys discussion in this thread. Why would there be?
Why ask me? Why not ask him?

I'm here because I choose to be in a heated discussion. I posted a thread with a primer about the Bears. I'll gladly discuss them in that thread if anyone wants to respond to it.

Bull .... you are just trying to deflect the fact that you are trolling and have been for a month.
Holy cow dude, would you give it up? The first thing you did when I began posting here was hunt me down like a stalker. I had to repeatedly report you to get you to stop doing that. I'm a Cowboys fan just like you are, not a "troll". My views don't fit in line with yours? Fine, ignore me. It's that simple.

I don't have a problem reading your posts whether they're rosy or not, but I'm not here to respond to your posts insisting that I'm a troll. You're not a Moderator nor an Administrator.

Hunt you down?

That would imply that I knew you before you started posting under this name (which is probably true)

fact is I first commented toward you a week ago.

fact is I have never commented toward you in a thread you were not trolling in.

Never once commented toward you when you were discussing football.

Oh wait ..... I know why.

No, hunt me down. It's what you did. Every post I made that's what you did. "You're another poster here, you're another poster here!" You're not a Moderator. Your job here isn't to determine what anyone is, nor enforce or govern the rules. It's not my job either, however, I'm not running around finding your posts and calling you a troll or stalking you.

Please stop bringing up the Moderators. Discuss with him whatever you need to but don't bring them into the discussion as they have no bearing on his opinions.

I wouldn't be surprised if Z ended up moderating here one day.

First time I commented toward you was a week ago .....and not more than once 2 days ago .....

So unless you have another account ..... I do not know where you got that from.

Nope .... that job sucks.

To much restraint toward idiots involved.

Fine. But am I allowed to just jump into threads and call people a troll because I disagree with their posting style?

Interesting.
 
First I will admit that i only read the first page of this thread and the last 2 pages.....

However, this place has gotten really bad lately. I have been coming around here for many years now and it seems like its at an all time low.
I viewed the board a few times yesterday just to see if any new articles were posted and all i could see was negative spamming. I know some people get upset over calling them spammers. But how many threads can a person type or even how many negative responses can a person type before they wake up and realize they have a problem?

It seems like we have a few very active members on this board that just cannot grasp with this is really all about.

So I will give a little lecture on football and fandom.....

We are not on the cowboys. We are fans. We all want our team to win. The cowboys players, coaches and management do not post or read this. They have other things to do. As much as you many want your spamming whine to actually make a difference it will not. You may think you know whats wrong with the cowboys and how to fix it but you really do not know anything. You have your opinions, we all do. And they are all different from each others. But the Cowboys are not your life. They are not feeding your family. They are an enjoyable escape from the stress and reality of having to feed your family. Learn to find some emotional balance in your life. Getting so angry over the outcome of a football game that you are not even playing in only makes you look foolish. Sure cheer, discus football, buy merchandise, go to the games, but take it for what it really is. Its sports entertainment. Control your emotions. If the cowboys win this week your life should not be better or worse than if they lost. It has nothing to do with you. The cowboys are trying to win every game. And we all want them to. But to let the failures of another get you so upset that you are calling them names only reflects on the sad state of your life. You are on a dangerous path of unhealthy obsession. Before long the victories wont even taste as good because you will only thing about he negatives.

Enjoy your family. Enjoy your friends. Play with your kids. Take your dog for a walk. Do something to help your financial situation. Watch the cowboys and learn to enjoy it. Finding the right balance will make you a happier person.

It's not as bad as it might look. I jump on here, post for an hour or two, do other things in between. It really isn't as serious as you make it out to be, not for me anyway. I don't even get angry when the Cowboys lose anymore, I've changed my tactic. I used to, but it didn't help me nor anyone else around me.

[devilsadvocate]What if some of us already subscribe to many of those theories but still feel the need to vet a loss for a couple of days afterward (assuming the vetting remains within reason)?[/devilsadvocate] Would that be ok by you?

Continues is right - it was here well before Sunday...

Here's the thing - you are always going to have the over-reactors who want to cut Choice or fire Wade one game into the season (I am on board with his ejection, but not mid season), or firing Garrett and replacing him with the special teams coach (!?!?!), or other ridiculous knee-jerk responses...

But I would respond, in the spirit of your topic, "enough", that as frustrated as you are with the above nincompoopery, that alot of fans are equally grated, saying "enough" to a team that is addled, slovenly, unprepared, happy-go-lucky, and far less than the sum of it's parts should be.


This would be me.
