Say Good Bye To This Thread
First let me state I do not expect this thread to remain on line very long. I expect it to get deleted.
(Please refer to "locked" thread below) Quote:
No where have we EVER been told we cannot criticize by name a professional sports official that errors egregiously. Try to intimidate some one else. While I do not like or respect SDS's posts I will fight forever for his right to post what he wants. Your heavy handed style of this post leads me to believe that you are nothing more than an over aggressive basketball moderator that thinks you know more than all of us. I will post what ever I think is appropriate and live with whatever the penalty. Please if you make a stand as you did with SDS at least have the guts to sign your own name.

Public Apology
Perhaps, you are right. Chalk it up to a bad day along with many other factors that are unimportant to anyone else reading this forum.
As stated, Ed H is known by us and my knee jerk reaction to what I read may have been the wrong reaction. Therefore, consider this my public apology to SDS. Tim, I do think, you did make a very broad charecterization of me, with little data. I am not a basketball moderator, I adminster the site along with Brad and have for years. You can count on probably two hands the amount of posts I have locked over that same time span. So your broad charecterization with little data has missed the mark. You too take a very heavy handed approach many times yourself, so pot meet kettle! That being said, I do believe you add value many times to the forum so thanks. |
Hmm,
So anyone who supported my position came in and deleted their own posts.
As PapaC says: "Amazin'" |

I now predict you will delete this THEN lock the thread. Some of us have been here a long time and have even written articles for the paid side of the house (and also haven't complained publicly about some of the speed bumps in that process) and we are not exactly feeling the love this morning. Or as my friend frequently says: Some people simply cannot get out of their own way. |

I guess my only question, then, is: can you provide a list of umpires/referees/other officials that you guys know and like, so we know who we have to lay off of? For the record, I thought Ed H blew that call, too. I don't think that makes him a crappy human being, but it was a crappy call. For what that's worth. |
Yes, why exactly were all of our posts deleted? I didn't spend the time composing and choosing my words just to see them wiped out. I am a busy person and post at odd times because of this. I don't like wasting my time.
