I fucking hate even discussing it with anyone and everyone. People turn into fucking idiots with zero objectivity and fail to think rationally. And the stubborn factor grows.
Political discussions are even worse than talking sports with idiotic fans that don't know shit about the sport and won't listen to anything that isn't kind to their favorite team. Think that...only much worse.
I have my own opinions of Eric, but I felt that he's made a strong effort to stick to football discussion as of recent. Gidie should take some heat though. Love Gidie the poster, but I feel like the way some of the bannings and thread deletions are handled are head scratchers.
Eric and gidie have made clear their policing around here is inconsistent at best.
As far as directive, it's Eric's site. Any moderating gidie endeavors is Eric's directive as far as I'm concerned.
no one really knows jack shit about the internal workings of the political arena. You only know what is spoon fed to you by the media. That's not me trying to sound holier than thou. It's just the sad truth.
Go ahead and rally around your favorite team (party) and insult anyone or anything that crosses your path. Enjoy.
pretty close. The comment was that McCain was a man of great honor and integrity.
Eric quoted it with a question mark, and wrote "yikes".
Several of us responded with some not so flattering remarks about Eric's character. Filthy got banned. I think the post where I called Eric an asshole was the last post in the thread before it got nuked.

This is both objectively untrue & wildly presumptuous.
but if there was one guy in Washington that I thought people could universally agree on his integrity and his service, it's McCain. That comment was bizarre.
wishing condolences to somebody with brain cancer should be one topic that there's little chance of a shitstorm erupting.
It isn't about politics, religion, race or gender. It is well wishes for somebody who is likely dying.
When you factor in that it is a man who served his country and society and wasn't a criminal or even an unsavory character - it makes it that's much more bizarre.
Hell, Jimmy Carter is on the other side of the aisle as I am, but I don't have a mean word in me regarding him, and I've hoped he'll beat his cancer too.
But then again, we are talking about an entity that also wasn't too broken up at the death of Giants ownership, so it isn't really a first swipe as assholishness.
Yet a scumbag like rockyt was able to run around this site under
I think Radnee falls under the ban worthy parameters.
I've been warned by both Eric and gidie about certain posts, and in fact, Eric specifically said I was violating the political ban several times. This was simply not true. I started a thread on Christie and that was it.
Now we hear about a "yikes" post questioning McCain? Yikes.
may have not shown as much honor and integrity as other Americans who gave up the best years of their life being tortured like everyone else and turning down easier treatment and early release. Like you know...other guys. So like Yikes.
He may or may not have honored all his contracts in his business life. Some posters really disdain politicians who have even the slightest contractual disputes with contractors or their lenders.
McCain divorced. Some posters think less of a guy who cant keep commitments their whole lives. So absolutely Yikes on McCain.
He may or may not have been the politician with the least lies. Some posters really get pissed off when a politician does that.
So yeah...yikes on McCain. Why not a real hero?

fair enough. I know I don't know shit about the true inner workings. Ill leave it at that. I wasn't trying to imply that we don't know shit about the individual, only the entire shit show of an institution. But I don't want to start any shit. It's shitty enough.

Certain you won't give a fuck.
I think you misssed the sarcasm in Bill2's post, Beez.
And the bannings/deletions are straight-up pathetic. I'm not going to slather John McCain with praise, however, because I am not a fan. Hope he beats the odds and makes a full recovery.
No need to tear him down at this moment, and neither is there a need for anyone who doesn't admire him to say otherwise.
It's just incredibly hypocritical. We certainly don't need to be banning our posters that actually bring value to the board.

Cowardly censorship. But absolutely par for the course the way this place has been run for years now.
Come on.
Yeah, like me. Because I'm the fuckin' best.
...
Baahahahahaha!

May go down as the most ironic insult in political history...
It was almost like somebody yelled "Randy!", but it was squelched before it could be heard.....
As soon as someone wishes Randy Happy Birthday, the bitch will be history.

don't really see how you could question that about McCain, although I have my guesses as to the reason
Ill-placed comment, imo.
Disallowing folks to say it was crappy based on who typed it? Really shitty.
No.
"Yikes."
Love the Giants ... despise assholish hypocrisy.
Some respect lost.

Well, we're talking about unreasonable behavior here, no sane person should be wishing Randy a happy birthday.

Yet jackasses like this guy are still allowed to post. What a double standard.
After the treatment McCain received from the VietCong, from Karl Rove and from Donald Trump....he doesn't need us pissing on him.
C'mon -- 1 week till Training Camp starts.
Get well John.
