    My Sports thread has an ugly departure...
    Well, perhaps the most followed thread in the history sports forums has been closed. I cant say I blame the mods. The thread took a really ugly turn after the Indy win with the failed cover.

    I hope that we can all take a step back and see this for what it really is. I hope that we can all take a step back and re-commit to the intended purpose of these threads. These forums are for us to share information and take money from the books. Anything else is irrelevant.

    I respect both juggernauts for different reasons. My only comment on that issue is that the internet and SBR is certainly a big enough medium for both to co-exist.

    You want a friend? Get a dog. Maybe just maybe, personal attacks can be left at the door going forward. They truly are counter intuitive.

      Use SBR to help you win money, screw the rest of the bullshit. Too many people get caught up in forum drama.

              ^^^^^the whole thing was petty and childish when I went to bed and was horrified to see it continue on through the night.

              For me, this is all about taking my book's money. Nothing else.
