I see your point Rob, but a message board blog that says the same stuff all the time gets rather boring. The debate is what makes a blog or message board interesting and fun. I mean half the time I say shoot from the hip stuff just to get folks going. It is rather fun to be honest!!!!! Everyone here, with maybe a few folks, will cheer for the Skins no matter what even if they don't think the Skins realistically have a chance.

I'm not saying don't debate. Quite the contrary. I'm saying this thread was intended for some positivity, and people just jumped all over it. That's pretty much what my post was about. I'm just annoyed by so much irrational flagrant negativity (See every FIRE GIBBS/SAUNDERS/WILLIAMS/etc. threads and the arguments contained in those posts).

I love elevated discourse, and I hold the likes of Gtripp, Matty, SS, Jsarno, EQ (yes even quake), Schneed, Sheriff, etc. etc. highly, not because they're right all the time, and not because they're wrong all the time. It's just how they're right and wrong.

You see it over and over again. Arguments, supported by facts, supported by statistics/theories/evidence. It's what makes this site great. It's one of the best part's of being a fan. It's something that's been lacking recently. There are like 5 million other threads to bash the skins via angry nonsensical rants... This particular one just kind of irked me.

Anyways, Happy posting everyone. I'm out to get my drink on... (and not post while drunk... another key virtue rarely seen amongst the WP community)
