Hey Landfill, if the Padres are such losers, how come the Giants had so much trouble with them?

Let me enjoy this, bay area teams almost always blow it before making it to ANY play offs regardless of the sport. :D

Hey Uncle Creepy, they had trouble because they're a very good team. They still lost though, which is why I called them losers.

SD has become a bigger rival for SF than LA and I am simply having fun with the fact that the Giants actually pulled it off. It's really not something worth getting bent out of shape about. :2

Yeah, when the Blackhawks won their first Cup in 49 years in June, I didn't start a thread calling the Flyers "losers". I am not bent out of shape at all, I just think your post was lame. :2

[Whee]

I am going to have to remember not to poke fun of anybody's sports teams from now on.


Massholes, you are safe for now....:D

[Darrell]

My hope with passing on this joke was to entice some of the Padres fans into a little post series banter. That failed so I'll be moving on now.

Go Giants!! :D

[Don Fernando]

all this verbal violence on something just as important as curling ;)

[KidRock]

2010 Detroit Tigers = Epic Failure :( 81-81 with a 150 million dollar pay roll. I hurt every year but oh well..Thanks Jonny Damon..you really are the nicests guy in baseball...thanks for being nice to me in Clevland!

Didn't see it as bashing. Saw it as something that has been done here lots of times.

Bashing is what happens when blood is in the water and pile on begins to see how fast we can get someone banned.

That seems to be the way things have been headed lately.

Is the Asylum flooding?

[massphatness]

I don't know ... there's something about good-naturedly ribbing your buddies about the woes of their fav team that helps create the whole rivalry atmosphere.

Hey now...


I watched curing on the Olympics! It was AWESOME!! lol

I don't really see that happening. IMO, the way the community has worked before (CS) and the way it works now is that hopefully the elder members on the board help correct actions that may be against the decorum of the community. An assisted self-correction if you will. Its when the members don't take constructive criticism well and respond with anger, negativity and insults that things begin to take a trip downhill.

Unfortunately we are not able to control how people react to such things and occasionally things take a turn for the worse for them. Overall I think the self-correcting nature of the Asylum works more than not.

We haven't gotten rid of Mean D yet...I doubt this is any reason to.:D

But for me it was a few words like "Losers" and having it being posted in the "Jokes" section versus "What do you call a bunch of guys riding home on a bus"

Nothing wrong with good old fashion ribbing of sports teams but keep in mind there are no real facial expressions and subtle clues of ribbing on the internet. So taking something as a joke versus taking something as being "Not cool, man" can sway one way or the other.

:2 If Darrel had posted this in a banter thread and took out the word "Loser" I bet this would have all been very different. He prob would have gotten some clever verbal retort out of it too.

I don't see that happening in this thread.

You could maybe (and that's a BIG maybe) make a case that it happened in another thread recently, but I think the membership here, by and large, shows a great deal of restraint. Not everyone. Not 100% of the time. But most everyone, most of the time is willing to live and let live.

That's not to say that some guys don't deserve what they get. If I come into your house and start talking all kinds of bullsh!t, I'd expect to get socked in the mouth -- even if I do have an internet article that backs up my claim. Personally, I've had a number of disagreements with guys -- even mods -- over the years, and not once did I find the need to resort to petty name calling or mockery. I can disagree with someone in an agreeable manner. But if I acted like a petulant child, I'd expect I'd be treated like one.

Just to be clear -- this wasn't directed at Darrell.

Apologies if anyone took it that way.

I figure Peter is hurting worse from Liverpool losing 2-1 to Blackpool than seeing the Pad's lose. :banger

I believe they took a plane Alex....So would the correct answer be:

Who are the 49ers in week 6 (when they play Oakland) if they don't beat the Eagles in week 5?

I'll take teams that haven't had a winning season since 2002 for $50 Alex. :D

[MajorCaptSilly]

I don't get all worked up over sports. More of a music guy. I have to say the Landfill and Uncle Creepy mentions made me laugh like child!

I'm seeing visions of a photoshop contest: Mean D as the professional wrestler, Landfill & pnoon as his manager, Uncle Creepy.

turns out I got banned, almost a year after I told maduro/habanolover to screw himself. Banned months after a fact and without notification. What a great management skills :=:

anyway, back on topic: Peter, will you become a Boston Red Sox fan now that they own Liverpool FC? :D

just read that the sale didn't come through and that Liverpool might file for bankrupcy now.

I know Peter. I am not a Liverpool fan (you know that), but I would hate to see them file for bankrupcy and go a division down.

[jwintosh]

well, i'm still a Padres fan! they did much better than anyone expected them to. the Chargers on the other hand... and to think, i could of been sleeping....
