Can we change the forum name to "AFC West"?
Seriously. No ill will towards the the backers of the teams but at least name the forum for what it is. Every freaking thread is a Raider/KC/Bronco/Charger/Tui/Collins/LT/Ratahan/Hey KC Paul/Hey Gaydah/Raider Nation/Chiefs best team in NFL.

Cicero count yourself lucky that most of the threads on this board are from chief/bronco/raider/charger fans. Despite some obviously myopic opinons, they're not as obnoxious as Giant and Cowboy fans. Even HH and DF are mild compared to most Cowgirl fans that I know. Giant fans are even worse.
Besides,would you rather have a board full of m2's? Neither would I.

SSdd, since 1999 on every board we have squatted. Where have you been?Cicero wrote:Seriously. No ill will towards the the backers of the teams but at least name the forum for what it is.

Seriously. No ill will towards you, but ...... you need a new board nic. "Cicero?" Give me a fucking break.
Cicero was great at one liners, at the rare times he was not looking to promote his own political agenda. You on the other hand, have yet to post a great one liner, and the only agenda you have shown, is posting crappy threads.
From here on, just call yourself "Old Newspaper."

THIS Forum has stayed together since 1999 because 95%+ of us actually know NFL Football; despite our TEAM alliegences.(sp)Cicero wrote:Seriously.

i wasted post 700 on this?
I wasnt bitching. Thanks to you guys I know more about the AFC West than I will ever need to, just a thought to the Admins.
I agree that you guys probably have more passion for your pro teams than the rest of us, and that threads about the NFC South would probably get pushed down the page.

A good start would be for you to post a thread regarding your team... otherwise, troll on...Cicero wrote:Seriously.

I would say yes. They play New England, ATL and the Saints to end the season who are all poor at Run Def and now that he is healthy, he is good for 85-110 yards a game.
I think next year he will rush to close to 1400 yards.

As Q put it, we're all fans of the NFL. Topics with legitimate discussion points (the dreaded take) will always draw in the opinionated posters in this forum. Topics that sink are sometimes poorly crafted (a light C&P article with no supporting opinion, for example).
Many of the rest simply sink because a great deal of us either can't or won't debate the issue and, instead, opt to deflect and spin out of the argument altogether.
That, more than anything else, is what sucks the life out of our threads, our forum and, eventually, our posters.
Case in point ... how many times have you seen this in the forum?
Poster A: Your team is going to face problems down the road due to a suspect offense/defense and a QB/RB prone to making huge mistakes.
Poster B: Why is _____ Fan running smack about shaky offenses/defenses? Go eat a ___ and stay out of this thread.
... and the beat goes on.
If you find yourself either on the other side of this equation or viewing it in a thread, simply fall back on the timeless John Bender line and feel free to pile on and hammer away over and over until the third-grade deflection ceases.

Answer the question, Claire.
Sure, it will make for some unreadable threads here and there, but it could also whip our forum into shape in pretty short order.
Post. Discuss. Defend ... it's not really that difficult a concept, is it?

Regurgitating smack isn't fresh and isn't really funny. Pick wytchin like Orc has done to me in the past etc.. now that's funny.JHawkBCD wrote:I have the feeling that "Jim's balls in his wife's purse" smack will always be fresh, so get used to it.
Aaron was the last man on a pile-on from a few months ago. He should have at least brought something new to the table.

Jhawk still piles on moi for stupid shit I posted five years and 3 IBB's ago...and it's still funny.jiminphilly wrote:Regurgitating smack isn't fresh and isn't really funny.JHawkBCD wrote:I have the feeling that "Jim's balls in his wife's purse" smack will always be fresh, so get used to it.
No, he isn't. This forum has a looong memory. You'll still be getting grief on the copied picks fiasco for as long as your stay here lasts.Aaron was the last man on a pile-on from a few months ago.
Besides that, Aaron (or Toos-as in Toostoned to us long toothed fucks) is the very last person here you want to fool with. As well, he's also one of the first you'd want to have your back should the need arise. Trust me on this one.
Did your wife tell you to say that?He should have at least brought something new to the table.
I like the forum just the way it is.........
