Dude -- if someone wrote this to you-- "If Alan Branch drops to 25 you're the queen of merry ole england. k? I enjoy your posts because your ridiculousness engages me to reply and thus you aided me in reaching my minimum 50 posts. cheers!" You wouldn't respond like that? Especially after 100 beers.
Probably 95% of all scouts and people did not think that Branch would fall to pick #25. So it was a great prediction by you, but people saying that your prediction was ridiculous was obviously justified, as very few people, scouts included, would have thought the same way. Just like Brady Quinn falling to #22, if you had predicted that, people would call you crazy. Don't blame other people for believing what almost every scout in the country said. You made a great prediction, but you do not have to try to start fights over it. You already won the fight, as you predicted correctly and he predicted incorrectly, you don't need to try to win verbally too.
Well first of all, I wouldn't have 100 beers. But second of all, no I wouldn't respond like you did. You already proved him wrong, you don't need to try and attack him more, and try to provoke a fight. You won, no need to continue.
I made a serious thread-- he responded like a jerk-- hence, the reaction. I don't care if I'm a dick to that guy-- it was kinda the idea.
Thanks Kevin. Ive had a problem with his attitude for a while and it wasn't something that needed to be shared with everyone else. I'll be speaking to the mods about this kid.
I'm sorry... how did we "kill him for a month" cause I dont recall? Ive said maybe two things to him since coming to these boards.
Well, I wrote this to your PM, but now since you have decided to talk to the mods, and keep writing in here, then I'll include the PM so the Mods have my response at hand. "This has nothing to do with being right, it has everything to do with you responding to a normal, positive thread, (where I was not being an asshole), by saying this: "If Alan Branch drops to 25 you're the queen of merry ole england. k? I enjoy your posts because your ridiculousness engages me to reply and thus you aided me in reaching my minimum 50 posts. cheers!" You say I'm the asshole? I am when provoked-- You responded like an asshole to a thread that ended up being 100% correct. Hence-- I threw it right back at you. Can't take it? Don't respond like a jerk then." Mods should not have a problem with me responding to your insulting comment about a thread that was meant to express my opinion about Branch, and work ethic/character issues. It WAS a decent thread, and my intentions WERE good, until you, and others started your typical groundless bashing. Now I have a chance to throw it back at you, and I am taking full advantage. Have fun crying to the Mods BTW- what are you 8 years old you can't handle it yourself? Don't write BS like that to people if you can't handle when they end up being right, and call you out.
Keep in mind that there was only 1 guy I called out-- the guy who responded like a jerk. I never said anything to the 10 others who disagreed, but did not insult me.
Let them have it Cotch...you saw it coming all along (about Branch falling)If it was me!.....I'd be all over those guys...make sure they shut up..They are only getting what they deserve
Perfectly fine, but I suggest you don't respond with insults to a normal thread, where everyone is expressing opinions. You obviously can't take the criticism in return. And I hope the squeeky wheel does not get the grease-- just because you complain to mods like a child does not make you right in this situation. Any one of them can read this thread and see exactly where the turning point was between a discussion, and insults. To show people how silly you looked, I brought it back up- and several people seem to appreciate it. I can be a dick on here, but it's always in retaliation from someone getting off topic from football, and making it personal. You started this, I just finished it. Peace
