Who the hell are you, redwing, to speak for the board? Have you ever donated a penny to the operations of this board....or are you just one of the many on here who have never donated a cent, but run their mouths and try to speak for everyone?
I swear, the richer that people get, the cheaper they get. Wake Forest today is living proof.
It was a glib comment I shouldn't have made, primarily because it went against my own personal guidelines of not responding to you. But since I already have, I'll go ahead and respond again and leave it at that.
For one thing, I didn't realize that the amount of money you donated to the boards got to determine how many people you spoke for. That seems very... oligarchic of you.
I have been on these boards since they were founded, and I left Scout primarily to get away from three posters that were ruining virtually every thread over there. One of those posters never showed up here, one of them has gotten better, and then there is you. You are right in that I can not speak for the rest of the board, but given reactions to your posts since the last time you left and came back, I would bet that a significant percentage of the other people here are just as sick of your sanctimonious, nonsensical tripe as I am. This is not the Indiana boards. This is not the Texas Tech boards. Not every thread needs to be about Bobby Knight and comparing him to what is wrong with sports today. Don't get me wrong, I liked Bobby Knight as a coach. He was able to use intimidation and toughness to mold great teams back when that was acceptable. Most players really appreciated his style in the long run. But it does strike me as funny that you are indirectly linking Bobby Knight to one of the worst coaches in recent college basketball history by constantly defending the indefensible. But hey, I guess since you had the money to spend and spent it here, that gives you the right.
