I write this fully expecting to rack up the "I'm just being realistic!!!!" types of replies. But when did CF become full of 80 year old 'Get off my Lawn!' types in here. This site has been consumed by these types of posts in every thread, especially regarding football, hence why I posted this as a football thread. To top it off, it has seemed to open the door to every opponent's posters to chime in on their opinion, ie. 'You suck!' types of posts regardless of topic.

Without calling everyone out specifically, posters I always thought had a positive attitude have succombed to this level of posting. A poster I'll call 'XXXXXX' fits this bill perfectly right now, and man it's depressing coming on here. I'm even GASP thinking of finding alternative ways to waster my day at work. So in the immortal words of Vince Vaughn in Old School, "Come on baby, you're better than that. There's kids around, wag your tail a little."

Post honestly, but highlight the positive, enjoy the summer! Melting down before something ever happens ensures less enjoyment if you're wrong later on. This is much much larger than my typical post of some snarkey comment, so here's the preemptive TL;DR posters too. I got this sneaking suspicion we'll all be pleasantly surprised this upcoming season.

Narwhals?

But yes, I agree with OP. Lots of old, overly sensitive people on this site.

My man, calling out other posters is frowned upon in this establishment.

Also, get off my lawn!

Welcome to the world of anonymity behind a keyboard. I agree, it's old and I regret when I succumb to it as well.

FYI - white helmets suck.

How subtle of you to change two letters and add space.

3. Tuco - hok fan
4. Section8 - hok fan

it's pretty offensive that these guys make the list but I don't see twocoach or lakebison on there. I mean, I know they are hok fans/can't spell common names but still. :jimlad:

Thank you! Saw your lead phrase and thought I was going to be called out for being overly sensitive.

psst...tuco is CF slang for twocoach...hok fan as in jayhawk.

:wink:


ooooo got it now. I don't keep up with him enough to know his nicknames. I still think I'd take airbag and 1-T Bret over those Bison fans.
