Yes, fans discussing sports. KL's style and discussion method is VERY different: It's like he's written some sports article and responding to his readers/commenters. A bit creepy and I can see the distorted stretch...but still creepy. He doesn't deviate from this alter ego even when he is degrading another team. Many believe that the norm is for people to read articles and accept a writer's stance as fact...even stretching insinuations into fact. I wouldn't largely disagree. Maybe KL believes if he writes this way, people will, by default, accept his view as fact. I've seen fans try to cram their opinions down other's throats as fact. That's nothing out of the ordinary...but this style is creepy on many levels. JMO.

Lol. To you maybe... When all you have is the written word to understand what a person is trying to accomplish in their message, me being bothered by his style isn't all that unusual. At least to me. But how bothered am I? Only bothered enough to comment on its creepiness. Not bothered to the extent you are insinuating. This board isn't and never has been a place where people kept their feelings to themselves. It seems that many here are vehemently passionate about their feelings. Mine was nothing more than an observation and a surface layer emotion being described.
