Anger is counter productive as it does not let you think straight and anger is also bad for ones health.
It's bad for the nervous system and your blood pressure too, this is why I strive to eliminate all anger from my life.
Hate is counter productive too as it's also a form of anger.
I concentrate hard not to be hateful and I pretty much succeed at being peaceful which doesn't mean I won't get down and dirty because if I have to I will but that's a last resort when all else fails.
I'm white, that's not my fault, I was born that way.
I don't hate the black man because that's not his fault, he wasn't born that way.
I don't judge by the color of ones skin, but the content of what is in ones heart.
I'm not even sure if God wants me to judge (good or bad) at all.
Speaking of God, I'm Catholic, I choose to be.
I believe in God, doesn't make me a good Catholic, but that's what I believe.
I don't hate the Jewish because that's their faith of choice.
The same with the Muslim or the Hindu.
Don't hate them, I like the fact anybody can choose (within reason) what they believe in.
No Bear, I don't hate you, I believe somewhere outside of forum land you have a redeeming quality or two.
But this is forum land for now and I'm responding to you in this here forum as a poster.
What I'm about to say we have discussed before but let's revisit shall we?
Remember I say this level headed and no hate.
The next time you write a three page post or thread with clarity let alone a three sentence post will be your first time.
I've got the time to do that because I'm rehabbing a knee and a hip mainly because of the athletic (I was a catcher for many years) activities I participated for years in and other physical events.
Also I have a passion for analytics and sports and writing too.
I do this for my own reasons too.
I post here to further my writing and analytical skills (it's what I do in real life) because I have a blog and entertaining thoughts of writing a book on sports analytics or the history of DFS.
Some may think I'm a geek, and so do I, but it's my life and believe it or not analytics twenty years ago was consider geeky, now it's considered hip.
Now how can I be broke when I consistently post my plays with snapshots of my wagers.
You can't (well you can) fudge those snapshots but if I did (and I don't) it'll be more than twenty or fifty dollars.
Broke?
I've been playing poker and wagering on events for years, I'm still comfortably in the game, still make every bill each month, still have a nice wife and still have a very nice roof over my head.
Lastly I think an occasional good fart joke is amusing.
It's always funny until it's about you though.
OK, on to you now.
Yes Bear, one can deter you from posting here, I can't because I don't have moderator abilities, but they do.
I think, and this is just my opinion that the moderators here allow you to because they pity you.
But know this (and I say this without hate) and know this well, pity is not compassion.
Like I said I think in real life you probably have a redeeming quality or two, but this isn't real life and I'm responding to you as a poster here.
YOU'RE ANNOYING.
You're beyond annoying.
You clutter up these here boards with inane questions that you could google the answers for in less time it takes you to type it out here and post it.
You don't think things out, if you did you wouldn't clutter up these here boards with the aforementioned inane questions.
Research man, look into it.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
Do some homework too, your'e Atlanta Braves thread the other day had at least four glaring errors.
What you post some may read. If it's full of false information you might be costing others money that don't know you.
I can only speak for myself however since I listen to and read others responses I think I'm pretty much qualified to speak for others that we cringe at what you write.
We really don't care if you don't know how or where to get laid.
We're not here to help you with that, figure it out for yourself.
Lastly (I could go on) but twenty minutes is all I want to spend on this post because I want to do real life Sunday things and watch some sports tonight.
YOU HAVE NO SHAME.
You're shameless, if you had shame you would consider what others post about you.
I didn't say care about what they say about you, I said consider.
