I just want to say one more thing...
So many of you guys are 'funny' in how you react to this kind of thing. It's like... it's like if i go to a game, and someone in a Georgetown sweatshirt walks up to me and says "Syracuse sucks!" I'm likely to have one type of reaction. I'd be motivated to 'fight back.' But, if a friend/SU Alum walks up and says, "oh my god, our offense is such an atrocity this year, it's hard to watch" — well, then we're going to have a very different type of exchange. It's going to be amicable, and constructive, and we're going to end it very pleasantly, even if we have differing opinions on why, or to what degree.

Here, in this forum? So many of you treat [U][I][B]fellow fans[/B][/I][/U] as if they're attacking your very person. And, so you need to retaliate. And then divide, so that you can feel like you're in the 'right club.'

If you really look at what i tend to write, most of it is either questions, or arguments about logic, debating assertions someone makes. Not insinuations about a that person's character or 'fan status.' About the quality of a statement. I thought that was the 'higher level' way to pursue things. Maybe not in a sports forum.
