Really hoping the games are played this weekend...

Yes. The infraction was no big deal. The penalty was even less. Far too much drama about so very little. It was Admin! Bill had to leave! It's all just too much for my sensibilities...

Bottomline, it just wasn't that big a deal. The whole thing was so nothing.

and his reaction had nothing to do with the length of the penalty, timing or whether it was released. your buddy's penalty doesn't sound like it's a comp. That's my point. For both, it was just that they got a penalty. Just not that big a deal. Both Bill and my buddy just took an innocuous act that...

I think blaming admin in this whole affair is unjust, in addition to being just downright unfair... Admin didn’t play favorites. He enforced the standard. In my book, that's commendable and warrants support. And Admin released the penalty. NJBill's penalty was nothing... and during the off-season. ...

You're not. It's a ridiculous statement.

But if a warning had been issued, ok, take the flag. Last 'brush' gets the flag. For sure there was a warning and, after the warning... a poster didn't let it go. What I don't know for sure, but I'd guess was the case, is that there was a complaint from a post-er before Admin issued the warning. Ag...

not sure I would call them "personal attacks", that's quite a stretch. NJ, are you getting your 3 squares? njbill telling another post-er, "You have an unhealthy, unnatural infatuation with this young woman. You pour over her stats again and again. You check her social media. And you...

Summit. Hungry...

Admin, was there a warning before this penalty? Sure seemed like a minor brush, not a slash...unless there were multiple such and an ignored warning. Multiple back and forths, Admin stepped in and asked for the personal attacks to stop, and... Sure enough. https://media.giphy.com/media/3o7aTmFZxRk1...

Not offended as much as confused. what youre saying dioesn't make sense.

And he doesn't. So why are you piping up?

JoeMauer89 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 07, 2021 7:10 pmWhy don't you just be honest and admit you are the Admin as well! Its not right that you are the Admin, and posting in threads regularly...

Joe

I have no idea who is or isn't the Admin and... Who do you suggest should be the Admin? What do you suggest?

Apparently not.

That's fair regarding the myopic focus, I do try my best and can ignore pretty much anyone on this site when I want to, but I am admittedly incapable of it with MD. I'm attempting to work on it... Why don't you block him in your personal settings so you don't see his posts. Make him a Foe. It's a t...

On the politics, frankly I don't mind reading the posts of someone who supports Trump, including continuing to support Trump (which does seem bonkers to me post insurrection and the Big Lie), posting about their rationale for such support...as long as it isn't this angry, in your face, attacking, t...

All Caps is yelling. Toxic is toxic. Attacking people is attacking people...

Sure, but I'm not ready to scream racism based on the account's timeline and one-sided nature. Real racism, maybe. Journalist's desire to paint a picture of racism, maybe. Market fluctuation and incompetency, maybe too. Are you saying that real racism is when a journalist points a finger at racism?
