[mlcspinner]

you are so wrong. whenever people read my posts, they DO pay: it gives them a headache the rest of the day.


(BTW, do you mean Kapow? what's the heck is kabow?)

[stonebreakerwasgod]

no, the voices in my head all agree.

KAPOW !![/QUOTE]

How close is that to the Kung Pow pork I had for lunch?

 

[hawaiiboy]

Why no copy and paste from places like ESPN?

 

[SoCalDomer]

mostly cause ESPN writers/reporters are full of poop

 

[stonebreakerwasgod]

Copy and paste is the worst thing, IMO.

Better to provide a small bit, and then the link to the story. Keeps us out of trouble.

 

[IrishGrizz]

Most people, IMO, would rather not read a whole article in this forum. Shorter attention spans (at least in my casegrin: ) and a summary w link makes it so if people want more detail, they can get it.

But if its free, why would it matter?

It's called taking someone else's work and making it your own.

Why are you being so persistant about this? We've stated the rules and that's it. If this is going to be a problem for you, I'd suggest posting on another forum.

It's ok to quote and cite PUBLIC info. But if it's premium info from another board (like Rivals or Scout) and it has not hit places like AP or ESPN, then no.

Those folks offer premium inside info for a lot of money. If we post it here before it's "public" then it is stealing.

However, if on the PUBLIC boards at Rivals or Scout there is information, you can share it readily here.
