Both here and McGriff's (RIP), all boards seem to be quite sedate and respectful except the baseball board.

No kidding. Maybe they need to rip people as revenge for the crap they take on the field. What I particularly "enjoy" is how much they like to belittle anyone who works a "lower" level than the one they work. College guys belittle high school guys like you can't believe and you don't even want to mention you may only work Little League. It's just pathetic. I wonder if any of them ever consider that maybe they catch most of the crap they do catch because their attitudes both on and off the field sucks.
