What do I tell the coach?

Acerbic, nice word, I did not intend to sound bitter though. I hope you did not mean to say FYI as opposed to IMO, afterall, a debate is about opinions or am I wrong again?

No, I meant what I said. When someone loads their posts with sarcasm and biting humor, it makes from some great one liners and peps up the cheerleading squad, but it doesn't do anything for making your point with those who disagree with you. That's not debating, it's a one-liner competition that really only calls for responses directed towards "yo mamma."
You said in a different post that you like debate among "peers." If that's the case, I recommend stifling the wit a bit.

Frankly, I find the use of "IMO" to be unnecessary and redundant.
