It took all of twenty minutes for me to clash with posters in this forum when I arrived. Among other things, the main argument was over what trash talk (or what I refer to as smack) is, and what is and is not acceptable. Referring to someone as an idiot, moron, tool, newb etc etc etc is ok by some, and not ok by others. Some people in the forum think that smack is "intelligent" discussion only, and others such as myself think that there are other elements of smack that are worthy of time and energy. Basically my question is this: do you mind the name calling, and do you think that trash talking or smack is only limited to "intelligent" football discussion, or do you enjoy other elements of smack like word play, a little boasting (Hubris....psshhh) and things of that nature. I will be honest, I think that slinging some mud and some name calling and a little boasting is a lot of fun. I mean yeah at the heart of it all football talk should be prevalent, but in my opinion all work and no play makes johnny go insane. I am not knocking anyone who disagrees with me, I mean it is just an opinion. But I am genuinely trying to get the feel for this message board forum. Moderators I am not sure that this is the right place for this, but I request that you keep it here because that way the smack talkers who post a lot will see it, and hopefully respond.
