personal attacks won't be tolerated. fine. maybe you should take a closer look at this board buddy including the archived posts and apply your policy evenhandedly. i've been personally attacked a number of times due to my critique of the coaching staff and now i just plan on holding those who called me juvenile, a novice and a moron accountable for being wrong. seems like a number of people are getting sensitive because we cheer for a poorly coached football team.

poorlycoached: I'm right here. As Grant points out, personal attacks are not tolerated. However, if you'd like to have a discussion about this, I'd be glad talk this over on the phone. Please PM your number and I'll even foot the bill.

:)
i'll get right on that. you should just acknowledge you were rude to me before.... and wrong about this coaching staff.

I have no problems with you, but I think the problem is the way you comment, and not what you say. There's a respectful way to criticize, and then there is your way.

this is a college football message board. a degree of smack and crassness comes with that. i attack the coaching staff. they are screwing up a once very promising season. we probably won't win 7 this year after winning 8 last year and returning tons of players. others here have attacked me for attacking the coaching staff and also apparently b/c i am not part of "the club".

That is where you are mistaken. This is NOT a typical college football message board, far from it! It's not the criticism of the coach that has people annoyed, it's the manner in which you do it. We take pride in the fact that our message board is NOT the typical, name calling, profane, garbage that you often find on other boards (thank you Grant and the moderators). I'm surprised that calling ZiggyZoomba "buddy" didn't get you a major smackdown from the other moderators. Grant, aka ZiggyZoomba, founder of this board, is someone we respect greatly for what he has done for BG fans! Be careful how you tread, you're in dangerous waters.... :twisted:
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

It's because you're being obnoxious, rude, and crass. Unacceptable here to behave in such a manner to others on the board. We criticize the coaches, yes. We put our opinions out there, yes. We have knee-jerk reactions a lot, yes. We'll poke fun at others on the board, but we make it clear that it is in jest and we don't' have any intention of actually hurting them, and if we do, we apologize. But we don't call out other posters, attack them, or act without class. So far, you have done all of the above in your brief time here and it is apparent that you don't fully understand how to carry out a discussion on this board.
MarkL has spoken.
You may all now return to your daily lives.

Here's the deal. I don't have to apply anything evenhandedly. This is my site! How much did you pay to be here? You're a guest here and MOST of these people are my friends. Many of them are my GOOD friends. You come on here and do nothing but spout vitriol and anger. Look at your screen name. You obviously don't want to do anything but rile people up.

You called out one of my friends by name in the subject line of a post, call him "big boy...". You were only looking for confrontation. OR... no... I won't go there.

I don't have any use for characters like you on this site. Have some respect for those of us who have lived through the bad times AND the good times. They'll be good again. It's all cyclical. We'll be fine. You just have to be around long-term, not a flash-in-the-pan.

If you're willing to come on here and have some good honest discussions about your views, RESPECT this site and its members, and contribute to the betterment of Falcon athletics, please stick around. Otherwise, please don't.

For real - many of us have been saying the exact same things for about 4 years now.

You're not wrong, or alone. You're just acting like an ass.

I think 'poorlycoachedbgsu' is one of tekenini's aliases.

umm you're wrong sir. my screen name is not meant to rile people up. instead i chose it because i truly am very pissed at this coaching staff which should be fired for a very disappointing season. when i first came on here i posted a number of times regarding my displeasure with brandon and his staff and their calls and a number of people on here got personal with me. just because all these people are your friends doesn't make their unfriendly posts towards me right.
