    Nothing LJB, absolutely positively nothing. Will this ever end?

    You can quit the woe is me act. The entire board sees you for what you are.

    Dude, I didn't do a damn thing here and you know it. Get off my back. The threads, unless they have been edited, will attest to it. I say one thing and you and the crew begin. It's amazing but true, sports people follow a heard mentality.

    What's a 'heard mentality'?

    Non original thought. If you cover a major team in a major city, you undoubtedly have noticed that guys tend to follow each other around. That is known as herd journalism.

    It's beyond belief. Thumb aside the racists (reverse, end-around, double-reverse, whatever), sexists, classists, elitists and all the other pseudo, wannabe -ists who collect here every day like monelia cells, but let's kick the shit out of one guy because he started a carefree thread about cornholing his neighbor. Grow the fuck up.

    Just nit picking with your spelling, boots. I know what herd mentality is, just not heard mentality.

    And I had no problem with your correcting an error.

    LJB, that was all he had done until that thread got locked. Then he decided to infest the rest of the board.

    Take a look at his most recent posts. Look at the ones from about three weeks ago. They were priceless.

    The groupthink behavior on this board, so third grade (or lower), is totally out of control, especially when it comes to him. Blow into the conch, everyone comes running, there's a guy at the bottom of the hill. Well, fuck that. Enough is enough.
     
  11. Dude, you've really had a stick up your ass lately. You're not helping anything. You're just encouraging Boots. I've been ignoring him the last couple of weeks and I've been fine. If you would stop emboldening him, hopefully he will grow the fuck up.

    Is that hypocrisy I smell in the air? Not that I necessarily disagree with your overriding point here, LJB, but I can't help but notice from earlier in this same thread that you appear to be a steadfast member of the Whitlock bashing herd. And let's face facts, NOTHING brings the same pack of knee jerk groupthink haters running together like a blast from the Whitlock conch. Yet I didn't see you protesting this mentality in that case, I only saw you gleefully diving in to join them.
