I have a proposal that I think would do a decent job to eliminate much of the asshattery in the sports forum that seems to happen.
A new rule called "Play Nice". Enforce it strictly because frankly the sports forum isn't even worth visiting anymore. I'm not saying we have to answer everyone with "That's a fine idea good sir! But here are some things that I disagree with that I believe you should consider..." but every thread seems to end in a bitch fit between posters that are fans of an opposing team or don't like the particular player/coach.
/whining.

It would be nice to be able to trust people to have intelligent discussions about different teams...sadly, because of a select few, it will never happen.

Have you ever even posted in this forum before? The 'asshattery' doesn't seem to dissuade the regulars from posting.

People can accuse Steeler players of all most anything, but say something about a Browns player and it gets locked up.

Yeah, I am not allowed to lock things up for "retardedness". I guess there is no rule. Free for all in this bitch.

Sadly it is just a few posters who behave like that. I avoid even clicking on certain threads because I know it is going to be nothing but junior high type bullshit.

Don't like a thread, don't read it. Don't like a particular poster, ignore them. Problem solved.
