I agree, Rob, and I disagree.

Nothing is accomplished when everyone sweetbreads topics. This nation was founded on argument, blood and sweat.

Where I agree is that there are times when better use of this fine forum can be attained. For instance, the denigration of posters as "trolls", as "lying scumbags" and similar would accentuate the perfect examples of abuse of forum rights.

As to you, I would offer this advice, take or leave as you would.

You made a grievous error in starting your forum, this I and Fitump56 predicted would be demised. Your personal situation with the MLB umpiring Guard has been diminished, severely, or slightly, time will tell.

With only a few slots open each millenium, the question was rightly proffered "why did you take such a chance"?

I do not think that you are doing yourself any favors posting here, considering the circumstances. Again, I would offer this advice, take or leave as you would.

Certainly, in the order of things, havng you advise us on how to act is much like the donkey lecturing the carrot about moving along past its nose more quickly.
