I give up. I may come back come baseball season, but for now, I give up.

Several topics recently have had initial posts that were at least interesting enough for me to begin reading them. Then, maybe 3-5 posts actually related to the initial subject. Then, invariably, someone (often the same person) either has to bother to post that in his opinion the topic he's replying to is not worthy of a reply. Someone else has to then throw in an insult. Then the invariable attacks on grammar, spelling, and one's parenthood or lack thereof.

This is stupid. There is no better word for it. I feel like I've walked into the chat rooms of a bunch of 11 year olds on AOL in the early 90s.

GROW UP.

For me - this place no longer holds any interest. It used to be a great place to learn, discuss plays, and argue the finer points of the rules.

Now - it's WORSE than Esleeze or McGripes. I'm out.
