Wrong bible thumper, no one is bitching about too many threads. People are bitching about the subject of those threads.
Whatever the case, this Rams thread has sucked dick so far... preparation for what the Rams' are like under Kroenke I guess.
Used to work for a guy that had a dry sense of humor. One of the VP's, when making a point, was fond of starting a reply by saying "In my mind,..." One day he started a reply with that very line, but before he could get another word out my boss said "Wait a minute Art, I don't think I wanna go in there..."
lol, i used to have a boss that was a complete asshat he would attempt to add more credibility to whatever he was babbling by prefacing it with "the reality is..." i remember the day he got demoted, and the reality was he now worked under me
Dude, there are literally 2 threads clearly labelled "Lakers" and "Rams". You aren't being "subjected" to anything. It's like the old guy who doesn't want MTV in his channel lineup on the off chance he sees it while flipping through. Now you're just crabbing to crab. Lest you forget where we are...
And I don't want to turn this into an East vs West thing. I'm rooting for the Panthers in the Super Bowl, I feel they've been disrespected all season... they should roll over the Broncos. And of course North Carolina has given us the great Corey Seager. Plus I have friends from North Carolina.
Mousey, that is one fine sense of humor you've got there!! Thanks. But note that A) we were trying to "have a conversation about it" when some Mousey brained Mod claimed "I'm a Dodger fan and an Aries. Objection denied. Rams thread stays." Not much conversation going on there ehh Mousey my man? and B) I did in fact protest the Lakers thread within the Dodgers thread at the time it began. No one cared. Truly neither do I... but it's a whale of a lot of fun blasting people acting like hypocrites.. especially if they're friends you've drank beer with and damned nice of you to get the quote correct
I mean are we really complaining about how a free forum is run by guys who volunteer their time to keep it organized? For fucks sake... Guys just bkitch to bkitch. Mods Carry on how you see fit.. Fuck the haters.
yeah.. fuck the haters ... and fuck the fuckers too!! especially if they're mods... cuz Mods need them some lovin'... ...
IMO, the best part about posting with the same group year in and year out is that we can dish it out to each other without taking things too personally. I like a thread devoted to the Lakers and a thread devoted to the Rams in here. It makes sense to me. Ideally it would be in the Rams or the Lakers forums, but then it would have a different crowd visiting, and that holds true for any message board. I like seeing what Dodger fans think about these other sports teams. Did no one care about your protest of the Lakers thread? Or did others just disagree with you? FWIW, Rubes created both of those threads, which is kind of a game-set-match situation.
Honestly DSP could easily shrink down to an all LA sports site Nice to think there will be some future influx of posters but other than an occasional visit from an occasional guy the rest of the site is DOA
Mousey.. so true about not getting attached to sports blog statements in general but knowing guys for years, drinking beers together periodically, makes it OK to debate with energy without anyone threatening havoc on a random street corner. In theory. About Rube starting both threads.. it almost makes it poetic that he agreed with me. Umm OK then Rube. LOL. Yeah that is the core topic. Once in awhile people, Mods, teeth gnash openly over needing new blood with a bigger pool of reprobates to argue with.. Have we not been listening? Therefore making the DSP site all Dodgers, only Dodgers, and then maybe some threads on other LA teams but shown only in the Dodger forums first makes for an increasingly narrow fan base. Pardon me for noticing. Or listening to Mod complaints. Or being anal retentive enough to care. Slightly. No worries
This website is a forum for LA Dodger Fans primarily. And for fans of any other LA or SoCal centric team secondarily. Everything else is "other sports". If its SoCal and we have a fanbase for it here on DSP then there will be a thread for it in the Dodgers forum. Because the Dodgers forum IS the DSP forum.
Yeah we got it Rube.. So fuck all those Cardinals and Yankees fans!! Well that felt good to get out of the way.
Yeah I see that CardShark left for Thanksgiving and never returned... too much work.. too little reward And ole' F_Youk comes around once in a while to let us know that not all humans are Dodgers fans.. but not often No one else matters nothing really matters anyone can see...
