Actually, I am serious. If I cared enough to read through the threads for the past year and do a statistical analysis, I might be able to prove it. That's not going to happen so it is only my opinion.

You assume these guys know what a bad post is and that they have no desire to see you guys go ballastic and leave the board so they can take over.

If a couple of silly posts is all they need to take over the board, with the response that you guys are giving them, they are half way home...

pardon the pun...

You can't be serious.

So a new poster is going to read this thread, see how there are many people here who flame "bad" posts, and then decided that this is a good place to post another "bad" post?

And you can look back and see that the only person who actually answered the orignal question was a coach. Every other poster is just complaing about the "bad" post in one way or another.
