Why are these avatars different?

I agree that post is not appropriate. Sorry for not seeing it sooner.

you clearly feel very strongly about this. why? do you feel keed’s discussion was making that particular thread better? why, if so?

Goofyballer’s post doesn’t excuse Jbro’s attack on Jman. I think a distinction can be made between the two in degree and in Jbro’s post being the latest in a string of these types of attacks directed at Jman.

It makes me sad to see that people on this weird message board have internet friends who will defend their ludicrous behavior to their death way more than my actual real life friends would for me.

I’d pay good money to see a horsemen vs captains rap battle

No one is falling for it

It’s days like this that make me wish I’d listened to what my grandmother told me.

yea, I agree there’s value to dissenting opinion, but also feel that line crosses a lot into trolling on this board. I agree that reasonable discussion can be generated from this. I guess for this kind of discussion to happen, opposing sides would need to respect each other at least a little bit.

I’m embarrassed that I ever just accepted the notion that keeed was a troll because that’s what the crowd was saying. He’s an excellent poster.

yea keed has a heart of gold and genuinely believes every position he holds - what are we as a board putting money on that at what odds? like +1000?

theres like 15 years of posting history here.

Don’t sit too close to the TV or you’re going to go cross-eyed?

Eh?

Is horsemen and captains going to be the accepted terms to use to refer to the factions in this long-running conflict?

They’re also trying to get pedophiles to stick. Guess we’ll have to see which one wins out.

Does that mean you accept ā€œhorsemenā€ for your side?

We don’t have a unified side like they do. It’s a false dichotomy. For example, Goofy and I don’t particularly see eye to eye. I think he’s taken more shots at my posting then some of the captains have. The only thing we have in common is that we’re not here to try to burn the place down.

This is like the modern version for nerds of West Side Story between the Jets and the Sharks.

I think both sides should flip a coin and the winner picks between Jets and Sharks and the loser gets the other. Those names are cooler. So are the avatars. You could have like a Mark Sanchez butt fumble, Rex Ryan, Bobby Hull, maybe some fighter jets… and then like Phil Ivey, Patrick Marleau, Joe Thornton, a great white…

Much better than Captains and Horsemen. I think whoever came up with those names on each side should eat equal bans.
