I'm not too clear

I did not say, nor did I mean to say, the discussion items were brave.
Again, we just can't agree on umpiring and that is fine as we will never, thankfully, work a game together.

Maybe I'm dense but this says nothing about being brave enough to come to a discussion board.

But I am glad that you now see it my way and don't put yelling at umpires in the class of bravery!!
We've found our first common ground...Parents yelling at umpires is not brave.
There's hope for us yet Tim
