I'm not trying to defend his responses, I'm just using him as an example. I thought about using OS but we all know that wouldn't have gotten me very far. That post was the most recent that allowed me to show that someone says something and then a select group jumps on him and says, no your wrong, then when that doesn't work, they say prove it. Then if that doesn't work they try to tangle the orignal poster into a big circle so they can see, we got you, that's not what you said before, you must be lying because you changed you statement here. See we were right the whole time, you just shouldn't post because we don't believe anything you say, because it doesn't conform to our beliefs.

Sometimes however when someone posts a question or a response another poster will react as if he/she is wrong and they must be ridiculed for it. I, like all of you, agree that there is no place for someone to just post bad or misguided information.......I think we all know who did that on a daily basis........but then there are the cases, such as the post from Kansas talking about head coaches. Instead of believing or questioning this post, some just said that can't be right this guy/girl is an idiot. Why? If you were from there or knew someone from there perhaps you would have thought differently. All I am saying is that different isn't always wrong.

Even then you might still think I'm an idiot.........All I'm saying is that we shouldn't jump to conclusions just because what is being said is different from what we are use to or think we know to be true.
And all I'm saying is exactly what has been said to the many others who have brought up the exact same point......

DON"T TELL US WHAT TO POST!!!!

That is not your job, or any of your business either. What gets posted here is determined by the owners of this site and the moderators, not by you, me or anybody else.

I would be for this change universally, imo it makes for a better game flow. At a minimum make it available for state adoption.

Forgoing the "home team wear white" is one thing, but making the away team wear white is just plain hockey ^H^H^H^H^H^H hokey.
