I wasn't even going to respond because most of this is ridiculous but whatever.
You contradicted yourself regarding "reasonable debate" in your USC postgame comment about BVG. "Don't even think that's debateable." Your "reasonable" apparently means as long as one agrees with you. That is what you meant, wasn't it.
Your takeaway from "Don't even
think that's debateable" is that I'm not open to reasonable debate? Of all the posts in this thread, that's the one you want to pick out to show I've contradicted myself? I could go back and quote the half dozen times I've specifically thanked people who posted substantively in this thread (kmoose is the best example) who disagreed with me. I've repped a lot of people with opposing viewpoints. But because I get mad at someone who never comes in here other than to troll I somehow am not open to reasonable debate. Got it....
And one again you felt obliged to pile on Schmidt. No he's not the most talented player out there but NOBODY HAS BEATEN HIM OUT.
There are plenty of people who agree with me. Is Joe your child that you feel the need to defend him from some guy on the Internet pointing out that he isn't a good football player?
Then you object to Wooly's comment and FBolt's comment (a picture is worth a thousand words so they say) which was appropos although you didn't think so you launched into a diatribe about FBolt's history (your version of it anyway) and whinned about you don't like the political threads . WTF did that have to do with anything except underscore your pique? BTW, FBolt followed ND football and posted here from halfway around the world 12 hours out of sync with ND game times. His posts don't tend to be long but usually are poignant. Like in this thread.
The point about politics threads is an example of a thread I vehemently hate but I just CHOOSE NOT TO GO TO IT. How fucking difficult is it for people to just ignore threads they think are stupid or pointless? Instead of posting a huge picture that slows down everyone's load times Fbolt (and anyone else that doesn't like this thread) can just not post in it. This thread is for people that want to discuss Kelly's performance after
every game
win or lose,
good or bad. It's not for someone to come in here after wins (i.e. mick something) to mock people on the other side of the debate. I didn't do it after the Clemson loss and I won't be doing it if we lose again.
There is a Game Thread every week and a Post Game Thread every week you could have posted your USC good and bad lists there like most people but you chose to put it in YOUR bitch thread (Go read the first sentence in you O.P., remember, "I'm just going to post a bunch of random negative thoughts about BK.") Your theme (negative) was captured perfectly by FBolt's pic.
The full quote is "I'm just going to post a bunch of random negative thoughts about BK in this post
but feel free to use this as a place to talk about him good or bad." Thanks for picking and choosing.
I chose to put it in this thread because there is an ongoing discussion about BK's performance. I want to be able to go back and track my thoughts in one thread. Is that so unreasonable? I don't want to have to go back and search through every Post Game thread. I'm such a bitch for wanting to do that.
I believe this is my first post in your thread as I abhor constant whiners as I have for the 10 years I've been on this board including my two stints as a moderator. If I was a mod I would have sent you a PM not made a public post about your posting history. I guess different moderators have different approaches. BTW, why don't you actually be a moderator and change the title to something honest like "gk's Bitch thread".
I abhor people that lack any objectivity and can't handle one iota of negativity without resorting to name calling and posts like yours. I hope your first post in this thread is your last.
Sincerely,
IE's Bitch
