I wasn't trying to be an ass. And there is a difference between discussion/opinion and ridiculous bickering. A huge majority of the arguments you get into don't serve any purpose other than to prove that you are right, rather than accepting someone's opinion. It just gets annoying when that's happening in just about every thread.
I don't go to the football forum because I don't know football well enough to be able to intelligently discuss it. I always thought we were trying to be different than the football forum. It seems like that's not the case at times.
I've been here for 2 years as a member and another 2 before as a lurker. I am very aware of what a message board is.
