Win-win.

Just because it's a hard discussion to have and not a discussion you enjoy doesn't mean it's polluting every thread.

Seriously when you suggest something better to discuss in ANY thread then maybe I'll take your "suggestion" a little more seriously.

If we don't go dancing next year, we'll either have to consider firing JJ or else we owe Jeff Capel an apology.

If you take all of those out of the game thread, there won't be any game thread left...

I don't know about you all, but I prefer square to circles. Thoughts?

Can we change the name of this thread to ***** about the posters that you can't stand. It seems like we have gotten off topic.
Sooo... Circles or squares?

Sorry, I disagree...we normally make it a good 50-70 posts before it devolves into:

ODU SUCKS FIRE JJ HIRE COACH K RECRUIT LEBRON! ODU ROCKS EVERYONE BE PATIENT WE'RE SWEET 16 NEXT YEAR FOR SURE!

I'm just suggesting we save the sanity for those of us who would prefer not to be subjected to the same argument by the same 6 guys. They can argue in one place until they are blue in the face and the rest of us can talk about whatever the thread is supposed to be about.

After all, isn't that what thread topics are created for?

Like it or not, posts about what's wrong with the program are valid and related to the game threads, especially after a home loss to FAU.

Seriously, if you want change, then post the discussion you want to discuss and don't respond to the the posts that you don't like. A lot of times there will be a few conversations going on at once, some of it is good conversation and some of it is just repeated information, but my point is if you want to discuss the game - then post about it. Posting about the actions of others is just going to derail the conversation even further.

I'm more of a triangle guy myself, mostly because the less sides the better. I also don't like those 90 degree triangles, screw that. They either need to be acute or obtuse for sure, in my mind. Period.

I think we can all agree the more sides the better. But I take issue with your assertion that all four sided shapes are squares. There is a large and diverse set of quadrilaterals like Rectangles, Trapezoids, and Parallelograms who all deserve equal consideration and discussion.

I will say my personal favorite is the Rhombus.

Keep your circles, squares, and triangles.

I like curves myself.

The square with its four 90 degree angles and equal sides clearly is the most balanced option. Take your Rhombazoid or whatever and shove it. You are trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. It just won't work.
