His comment was stupid I agree, it's the name calling that I find idiotic. I know I make stupid comments and I'm pretty sure you do too from time to time, it doesn't mean I am an idiot, it means the comment was stupid.

I don't give a fuck what you think about other people, but name calling and then insisting it was justified is something I will not just let go because it's your favorite type of comment to people you disagree with. There's plenty of that shit elsewhere in the net and I don't want mf to turn into that.

Boy I didn't realize how thin skinned some of you are around here. I've been here a long time now and I rarely get into arguments with other posters let alone call them names, I think it was perfectly justified in this situation and if you don't like my comment feel free to skip right over my posts in the future. I honestly don't care.

Or better yet feel free to use the ignore feature provided by the message board...

Thanks, guess you can't take your own advice and ignore idiots. I was not offended even if you called me an idiot, I just think you're smarter than resorting name calling as if this was twitter. If I was thin skinned I'd ignore any confrontation especially one not involving myself. I just actually enjoy mf and wanted to keep this place different from every other place online as it has been.

Since you can't take criticism, feel free to call me whatever the fuck you want and I promise not to hurt your feelings or feed the troll.

Fuck Toronto, fuck childish behavior amongst men and most of all fuck DC!

Sometimes I think the entire Red Bull existence has been some 19 year old kids football manager save file he only plays when he comes home drunk. - 'Mibabalou'

I never called you one lol

His comment is something I'd expect straight off Twitter and he didn't bother defending it because he probably realized how stupid it actually was.

If you respond to a post you disagree with by resorting to vitriolic name calling (even if the post is wrong, and in this case I actually do disagree with Norm) you do yourself no favors.

Just because I've posted things I probably shouldn't have doesn't lessen the wisdom in what I said in my last post.

didn't realize he needed people to defend ... himself


Norm is a dear friend and a brilliant person and I am going to respond to anyone who verbally attacks him. I did not call you names, just asked you to chill. Instead, you have double & triple downed on this nonsense.

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

That's wonderful, you're not a mod so you don't have to try to tell me to chill or police these boards like you own them. I can post my opinion whether you like it or not. That's great that you all are on a first name basis but I don't know Rybka but I'm pretty sure he could fight his own battle if he didn't like my post and doesn't need your help defending his dumb ass comment.

to SatanHockey-

 

The personal insults you have thrown at me were completely uncalled for. I did not insult you or use profanity at you. I merely made a general post that you did not agree with. By making these ad hominum attacks towards me you are attacking the foundations of this forum and you are degrading its tradition of civil discourse.

 

As for this so-called "stupid" post. You mischaracterized it by thinking that it was accusing you of sympathy towards the maniac that killed innocent people by running them over. NOT SO. My post merely asked you and others to lay off the "hate" towards Toronto and their sports teams for awhile. I felt that we as a forum we should show respect for a horrific tragedy that occurred only a few days before TFC lost in the finals and the Maple Leafs were knocked out.

 

But my single post is no longer the issue here. Some here think that it was "stupid" and some do not agree with it. I am okay with that. However these vulgar ad hominum attacks are a much bigger issue than my post calling for "cooling" the rhetoric towards Toronto. A forum that is filled with vitriol and venom is not an attractive place to discuss Red Bull soccer.

This forum has had countless arguments over the years with things that have been said that are way worse than what I said. Your buddy Mike has said way worse and knows its himself cause he just admitted to it above. Hell we have a supporters section that thinks yelling to the opposing teams keeper that he touches little boys and to leave those kids alone is hysterical but oh no I called your statement fucking idiotic. This is where the line is crossed? Lol Oh the horror! Shame on me!

Let's not pretend everyone here always gets along and plays nice just because we support the same team. There's a reason why we have 3 supporters groups to begin with.

Toronto's sports teams don't deserve a bit of sympathy from me because they have absolutely nothing to do whatsoever with the tragedy that happened.

Vulgar attacks? Don't be so overdramatic and sensitive. My opinion was that IF and I did use the word IF you truly believe that we should be nice to Toronto's professional sports teams because of an event that has absolutely nothing to do with them other than being in the same city then yes I do believe it's a fucking idiotic statement. Which you clearly believe is true so hey I still stand by what I said.

You don't agree and neither do a few others but hey guess what that's the best part of a message board and life in general, you don't have to like what I have to say but I can say it anyway.

If the worst thing that happens to you this week is that someone you don't know thinks something you said on a message board is fucking idiotic then fuck you're having a pretty fucking good week.

And I can call you out on it, whether you like it or not.
Meanwhile, if the mods had any sense, they would delete personal attacks, not sever threads and eventually lock them.

You can post whatever the hell you want, won't bother me at all since I don't take anything here personal and think it's ridiculous that anyone would in the first place.

I don't think rooting against TFC has anything to do with the tragedy up ther.. but there is no need to swear at people.
