I’m an alcoholic and very recently relapsed. I was clean for 2 years in part because I worked on a forward operating base in Afghanistan and there was no booze. It’s one of the reasons I took the job, I needed to get away from it. I don’t think anyone here is trying to be disrespectful to people with substance abuse issues, it’s just a common turn of phrase comparing things to drugs. It certainly is appropriate when talking about addiction. Anyway, just thought I’d share since the subject came up. Moving on. You are making personal threats against me in PMs. Let's have it out right here on the board. Here I am. Like I said, you need to talk to chopper. Well first of all I didn’t make any threats, I essentially called you a shit mod for not cleaning this place up like you should. Secondly, I did it privately because it doesn’t belong out here. That you’d post about the PM out here (and lie about it) proves you’re a shit mod. Third, did you pick this quote to slander me or something? WTF happened to you while I was gone, you used to be a decent poster. Now your posts are as bad as your moderating.

I’d respectfully suggest that football threads stay focused on football, and if some want to go slug it out on other things in an off-topic space, then so be it. (I thought that was what Twitter and Facebook are for these days.)
I don’t know what’s being said (or not) in PMs, and I don’t particularly care about anyone’s non-football opinions (since that’s not why I’m here), but I do know that the persistent—and now thread-jumping—bickering is unnecessary and greatly reduces the value of this forum. This isn’t my house—but I’m sure not going to spend time in this one if this is the new norm.
I hope things resolve positively soon and that we can get back to football and the Bolts.

Stay on topic and I’ll do the same.

AF has graciously changed his avatar... I appreciate that. I have changed mine in return. Let's get back to football.

You are correct, because its my house. Time to clean it up I suppose. I have been mildly amused by the bickering, such is my way. But too many posters are being subject to the bickering, and they have had enough. If you fighters want to PM each other fine. But I've seen enough in open threads to do me for awhile. You guy's were fighting enough that my stirring actually had no effect. Look at it this way, where's the fun in that. Guys come to have a little fun, talk football, and really its that simple. Let's get back to it.

Bunch of snowflakes in this dump. Greta is a waste of oxygen. Americans did what what they do best. Make a global pandemic all about themselves. I'm not changing my avatar for anyone. That is all.

Of which nationality are you sdc ? I’ve been to Costa Rica 5 times in the last 6 months. It’s a tiny country so in some sense it’s apple to oranges but the mentality towards the pandemic is vastly different than ours. There is a sense of community and it’s all about being responsible citizens. Here it’s contentious, political, and completely self serving. A lack of tolerance towards other viewpoints has become our common denominator. Kinda sucks.

Happy to see someone getting this conversation back on track! Waiting for the "stick to football" crowd to post informed football takes...or even uninformed football takes, although there is a little of that. And... fact check... Freak IS a mongrel in dress shirt and tie. Looks like Dick Nolan pacing the sidelines.
