Screw the thin skinned pansies around here. I've grown sick of the BS around here, and am seriously considering closing my account on this board. Nobody says anything I care to discuss. It's all about opening up a slot for some G5 school, or destroying the Big XII so the ACC will survive, even though it still sucks as a football conference and has no business being among the power conferences.
You are not the only one. People keep calling me moron and all that for thinking outside the box of potential expansion candidates. There are people on this board hates D2, D3 and NAIA schools and think only expansions should take place by inviting only D1 schools. It does not work like that way. I lost Rep because of it.
In fairness, pointing out what isn't realistic and "hating" are two different things.
Believe it or not, merely existing is not the only prerequisite to becoming a top tier program.

The last neg rep I see on you was in Feb.
You can also delete stuff you did earlier. It doesn't have to be negative. It can also be all the good posts are forgotten because some weak minded fools doesn't like a post.
These people claim WVU got the Big 12 slot over them because they were "too ethical" to leave the Big East early and don't see the hypocrisy of a school that is so ethical hiring Pitino AND Petrino. Petrino's a good coach, but he so embarrassed himself and Arkansas, no other P5 school would touch him.

What else is new? They were also all too willing to attempt to use political influence to usurp WVU's slot though. How ethical is that?

WVU only got that kind of help after Mitch McConnell stuck his nose into things. Then Joe Manchin slapped him down on the floor of the Senate.

To the gutless coward that was too childish to admit it, you're pathetic, Wilkie.
I hope you grow up someday.

RE: I notice a good bit of hypocrisy around here
And I have no plans to delete all the rep points I gave Wilkie, which would probably drop his rating about as much as he dropped mine.
I'm refuse to stoop to the level of a gutless, childish coward. I have more integrity like that.

RE: I notice a good bit of hypocrisy around here
Now I guess I may have to actually look at the rep points. I thought they were like the scores in "whose line is it".
Holy crap, you have 61,587 posts! That can't be true?

RE: I notice a good bit of hypocrisy around here
The truth about rep points.
1. Some boards hand them out like candy.
2. Some boards are tough to earn one on.
3. We have some posters who might not be that good but they have amassed a large amount due to a huge amount of total posts.
4. We have others who are great posters who earn very few because the truth isn't always popular.
5. We have most who get rep from their buddies and vice versa.
6. We have others who give large quantities of rep points so they can take them back when they get ticked.
So rep points are basically meaningless. They really just mean somebody has been here a little while and posted way too much, or been here a long long time.
If used appropriately (which they seldom are) they can be a good indication of the quality of posts given by a person. But most times they mean nothing.
So take it with a grain of salt.

RE: I notice a good bit of hypocrisy around here
I try to use them appropriately. I don't give out many. But when one is deserved, or somebody tickles my fancy, I give 'em credit.

It only works for gutless cowards, zen man. For honest people with integrity, it doesn't.
