Steve Forbes should be our next basketball coach without question.
I had to google Jalen Cone. Only time I follow Wake hoops is March when I hope our coach gets fired.
This board?
As a Prof and PhD candidate in Hebrew Bible and the Ancient Near East I regret to inform you that, despite your WASP upbringing and brainwashing, there is no commandment or law regarding anything about cursing. “Taking the Lord’s name in vain” refers to swearing a false oath which is not relevant in the modern world.
Maybe, just maybe, he thought he would ask for a little respect and politeness from the board community. But... nah !
The funniest thing about is, I'm not a millennial nor a christian.When people get offended by things that they interpret incorrectly that’s on them. No one is being rude to anyone by saying “Christ.” Boomers say millennials are “too PC” about things yet they are the ones that complain about crap like this.
I'm obviously from the same general period. I could do without the off-subject banter and occasional snarkiness but have come to understand that folks considerably younger than I have somewhat different ways of communicating and might express themselves in ways that used to make me cringe. I've adapted to the new normal - perhaps my already thick skin has further evolved, or simply my understanding that our generation is no longer the leading force of determining society's norms.
IMO, the older generations' duty is to pass on our knowledge and offer guidance but otherwise, get out of the way.
Sorry Mebanedeac, I wish people could be a little more respectful even if they disagree with your requests. I come on here to get info and most of the time it’s just smartass answers and people looking to be the first to jump on someone. And I know I choose to view this forum and probably shouldn’t
This is exactly how I feel as well. I used to check this board much more than now. That’s because it has become a contest of who can have the snarkiest reply.
And here we have a fellow Deac who simply made a request that isn’t disrespectful to anyone and all he gets in return is garbage. I’m guessing if anyone made a request that is meaningful to you, you would, at the very least, appreciate no crap from family members.
Maybe my expectations of the Deacon family is unrealistic at this point.
There’s much more reliable information on him being gone than getting another season. I wouldn’t start freaking out yet.
