#1 the "pfftt" was a joke. but you took it like the grumpy old man you are.
It would seem that you have a weird definition of the word "joke"... clearly, you were disparaging the opinion I expressed, now you're trying to weasel out by claiming you were "joking"...
#2 their's no point in me defending why I like him. you already made it clear that you don't like him so why should I waste my time trying to change your opinion?
Because believe it or not, sometimes folks with whom I'm disagreeing DO change my mind... but they only do so by making a logical case, based on facts...
Example-- on another board, I was touting Lamarr Houston as a possible backup NT for the Boys, and a poster made a pretty compelling argument that Houston was best off in a 4-3 scheme... I thought about what he said, and decided he was right... so now, I'm not as hot on drafting the guy...
It's what they call "debate", or "dialogue"... message boards are supposed to be about dialogue... maybe you don't change my mind, but maybe you impress some of the folks reading your arguments...
I mean, you don't seriously delude yourself that I care about YOUR opinion, do you?? And yet, I engage you in debate... part of the reason I do that is for the readers who are reading our dialogue who haven't really made up their mind on the subject... hopefully, the facts I provide give them input they didn't have before...
#3 lol I'm not looking for a debate with anybody. save that crap for politicians. I'm a stubborn guy and you're a grumpy,stubborn guy
Actually, a lot of the regulars in here consider me one of the funnier posters around... I can only assume you're mistaking my sarcasm for grumpiness...
Stubborn, yes... grumpy?? Not usually... I have my days, but none of them have been real recent...
#4 this is a football forum, most of it is opinions. for some reason you feel the need to start a "debate" if you disagree with someone's opinion.
I guess you think this board is supposed to be a forum for you to express whatever ludicrous opinion might cross your mind, without being challenged...
Which brings us back to your apparent belief that your opinions are always right, and thus above being challenged... permit me to ROTFLMAO...
I put lots of opinions out there, and lots of folks "debate" me, or even "argue" with me... unlike you, I not only expect it, I welcome the challenge of making my argument with logic, reason and fact...
I figure if I can't, that means my opinion needs to be reconsidered...
like I said the "pfftt" was just meant to be a joke. obviously you didn't find it amusing and that's cool. but lighten up, man.
And my crack about you and DaBoys having the same IQ was also a joke, if that's your definition of a joke (apparently, it's a lame attempt at insulting another poster), and you obviously didn't fine that amusing either...
Seems you can dish it out, but you can't take it...
