fair enough, that being said
regarding your a,b,c,d
a) "I know what im talking about" -Thats a bit of an arrogant statement no offense, and thats your opinion which everyone is entitled to
b) "I back up my opinions" Everyone can back up thier OWN opinion, thats why its their opinion, everyone can find statistics and written articles and put that together with their opinion, and then give it, doesnt mean its always right
c) "I love to argue which make threads more fun" Nothing wrong than that, but simply enough, some people dont and you just gota respect that its a Dolphins fan website and when you talk negatively about their team, true or not, they are going to get pissed, same way if someone from here went over to gangreen and started talking negatively about the Jets, Jets fans would rip that poster apart, respectfully so, they are being a fan and defending their team no matter what
"d)I am not some homer, I can criticize my team and I can praise Miami when each deserves it."
I can respect that you can give Miami praise when its due, but eevryone has a little homerism in them, or else they wouldnt be a fan of that team and it comes out in certain posts and not in others
A)I don't call it arrogance, I call it confidence. Do I know everything? of course not but for the average fan I know a heck of alot, if someone is going to prove me wrong they will have to be ready for a debate and have all their facts in order.
B)I don't form my opnions off the stats, I form them w/ what I see when I am watching games and for old palyers which I mnever saw live I form them from books, articles, clips, etc... I don't post QB X is better b/c he threw 30 TDs and QB Y threw 20. I understand stats tell part of the story which I do not believe most fans understand(not a shot at dolphin fans, I go through the same stuff on my Jets board).
C)I don't have any problem w/ someone not wanting to debate me or not agreeing w/ my opinions. I prefer when people will try to prove me wrong but I get alot of attacks just b/c I am a Jet fan. I don't have to put up w/ that nonsense, I am a regular here. I let alot of stuff go, I don't think anyone gets attacked more than I do but I understand this isn't real life. I don't take it personally, I would love to meet most of the posters at a Jet-Dolphin game. We'd have some laughs and have some fun which is what I like to do here on a daily basis.
D)Sure we all have some form of bias but my point was I don't come in here and say "Jets #1, dolphins suck!". I will critici9ze my team and praise your team. In recent
I like debating w/ you, there are tons of great posters at this site. I wouldn't post as much as I do if I didn't love it here. Fans are fans, no matter the team we all have our homers, our pessimists and guys that are closer to the middle. We love this game, love this rivalry and we have fun passing the time discussing these topics. We all spend more time, energy and money on this stuff than we should so why shouldn't we have fun?
