And, if you like, I can send you links to posts in which I have defended people after they get blasted for predicting Redskins losses.

All that being said, I do not really have the stomach to tolerate people who appear to go into hibernation when the Redskins are doing well, come out of the woodwork when the Redskins are doing poorly, and generally write "negative post" after "negative post." What is, perhaps, even more aggravating is the attitude that those posters have towards other fans (i.e., "You are all blind and sheepish homers who don't see the truth like I do") and how they seem to enjoy blasting the Redskins players, coaches and front office.

Although I am a mod, I am a person with opinions. I have never tried to censor guys like irish from speaking their minds, but I don't check my feelings at the door. Moreover, I personally feel it is fair game to sharply disagree with disagreeable people. There's a fine line between "sharp disagreements" and "personal attacks" (the former are okay and the latter are not) and I hope that I haven't crossed that line. If I have, I apologize to all.
No mod has ever tried to stop me from making any positive or negative comments which says a lot for the mods.
