I'll try and answer any rational question, I'm able to answer. If you are referring to your question, "Now, taking into account all that you stated above, why do you think he would join an officials forum in order to promote and make those claims?", I really can't give you an answer because I have no idea why coach Bryan does anything, so I obviously can't apeak for him, which of course, you should have realized before you asked the question.

I have never spoken with him about anything, so why whould you expect me to provide such an answer? Rather than speculate about what he might have thought, might have meant, might have intended, might have wanted to do or accomplish, doesn't it make a lot more sense for me to say nothing?

Read the question again, this time for comprehension. I did not ask you to speak for KB. I asked you to speak for yourself. I asked why do you think he would join an officials' forum in order to promote and make those claims. I am looking for your opinion. It's a valid question. Many of us have stated our opinions and I will be glad to offer mine again. I'm just curious about your opinion and I think it would be interesting.

Therein lies the difference, I just don't think my opinion of why someone, I don't know at all, might choose to do, or not do, say or not say, something about a matter I have no reason to consider, is of enough value for me to share with anyone. When I usually conclude that I have nothing of value to offer, remaining silent on the subject, seems to make the most sense.

Now I get it, we cannot give opinions (on a discussion board mind you) because you do not know the guy personally. Do you have to go out to dinner with a person to make a judgment on someone's motives when they come to your place to try to sell you on an idea?

I am sorry, but that is not how it works. And you have given your opinion about other people and you do not know them either. I am not sure why the question you were asked is any different.

In other words you are a complete fraud and hypocrite. Thanks for proving that point to everyone with these last statements (Was that a personal attack?)

Peace

Sorry, you don't get it, or perhaps just don't want to admit getting it. You can make whatever judgments, form whatever opinions, you like. Just because you form an opinion, doesn't require that you share it, dictate how you share it, or whether anyone cares that you've bothered to share it. You are trying so hard, reaching so far, to try and make yourself sound glib, and it just isn't working.

I haven't offered an opinion about anyone, I've just answered a direct question, stupid and leading as it may have been. When I have nothing worth adding, I usually try and remain silent, but I've interacted enough with you to know all I need to know about how best to respond to you, considering all your barking and bluster.

I am a grown azz man, I will share whatever opinion I want to and I do not think you are in a position to dictate how I share those opinions or whom I share them with. You certainly do not have the power to dictate what I say or how I say it.

You have added nothing to this entire board and you have told everyone how to speak, what opinions to share and what questions to ask. It is rather humorous to me and others how you want to preach to everyone on how to speak, but you are giving your opinion too. Though you do not have the balls to answer a simple question when asked by the people here, that sounds awful familiar. Maybe you are just Kurt masking as another moniker. That is an old internet trick.

Call it what you like, but it is true.

Peace

It's way past time you began acting like, "a grown azz man", instead of an angry teenager with an over inflated ego chip on his shoulder. Obviously you can't mount a rational argument to what I say, so you bellow about what you think I should mean. Grown azz men don't make up silly "stuff" to suit their needs and they're capable of getting a point across without trying to prop up whatever they are trying to say with a bunch of superflous BS.

All this nonsense started because you didn't like, and just can't accept, that you, and others, let your mouths get in the way of your thoughts and felt it more important to strut your ego than keep a discussion civil. If you want to act like a bully and a blow hard, that's entirely up to you, but you shouldn't be surprised when you're told it's making you look like an azz. Sadly, this ego thing makes a lot of the rest of us look like azzes, simply by association.

It's your parent's job to teach you how to speak, and not my role to make up for what they failed to get across, but when overblown ego and a rampant sense of self importance splashes mud on the rest of us, it needs to be pointed out, because you're just not competent enough to realize it by yourselves.

If any of you have some rational question, simple or not, you need answered, and can figure out how to ask it rationally and I'll be happy to answer it. Do us all a favor by not wasting your time asking me to put words in someone else's mouth or to surmise why they did, or didn't do, whatever it is you want an explanation about. That's not my role either.
