Announcement: I'm sick of the arguing

It isn't healthy for this forum anymore.

Do we need to all get in a circle and jerk each other off?

No.

But the atmosphere of this forum is beginning to get to the point to where I don't even enjoy coming on....which is the exact opposite reason I even created the damn site some 18 months back.

***And I shoulder some of the blame on this with my engaging of Hail over the last two weeks, so I'm not just pointing fingers here.***

True. For a troll-less forum, there has been a lot of trolling going on (myself included).

It's Michigan's fault Admin. This once great program has suffered in recent years. I think one thing we can agree on is we want to see Michigan back in the spot light in a positive way. Sadly, these days we are usually talked about after losing to App St, Toledo or barely getting by Akron and UCONN. It's got everyone stressed out. It's dividing us as a fan base. It's not good.

It is kind of funny but people talk about MSU and Ohio fans burning coaches and flipping cars. If Michigan beats Ohio this year I might just burn something. The days are gone where you just assume a win. I find myself being grateful for slipping past Akron.

Sigh. We need to be returned to our glory days. Winning will fix all of us. I am sure if you go to Ohio forum you won't see all of the bickering. Hell do those pricks even remember what losing feels like? Getting pissed again.

Time to sign off.

ive been away..who has been arguing?

arguing is ok if it's in good spirit!!

Disagreements can be healthy.

Admin I think the weather got you down. This site was a very good creation and is still better than M_LIVE and the junk that went on there , sure we have a few opinions that we dis agree on, but I think sometimes discussion is healthy. We can't always be looking through Maize and Blue glasses,. I for one look forwards to a different view of game as Hail has said some time I am a pessimist, That being said I still think a lot of good info is dispursed here. I check in everyday to see whats going on sometime there isn't much going on . and others there is more than I can handle.

I don't disagree with you there.

And based on most of the responses I see so far, I'm in the minority. And as I've always said since Day 1, I run this site like a Democracy.

So, if everyone is happy, carry on.

For what it's worth, there is probably only one person on this forum I wouldn't buy a beer for if I saw everyone at a bar.

I can only assume I am that person, 'hail.




(I am, in point of fact, a teetotaler)

Indeed disagreements can [ultimately] be constructive, if at first "painful"...but let's get to the point. There's a world of difference between disagreements and ad hominem attacks. It's the increased presence of the latter that's been my top turn-off here.

The fight's out there**, guys...

**-finger pointing in general direction of E.L. or C'bus.

I don't mind the back and forth or even the passive aggressive jabs at one another. It's no where near the cancer that took over Mlive. We're all on the same team. And oh yeah, I'm a grown man with real life problems. I don't fret over internet forum attacks, I laugh it off.

***NOTE*** Everyone hear loves me anyway. Why wouldn't they?
