During Ole Miss, the chatterbox was an absolute blast - enjoyed every minute of it. The Missouri game was nothing but an exchange of punts in the second half, which led to a lot more useless, crappy blather.

yeah, good thing you weren't on Saturday saying this... Ox and URG were calling us idiots for not liking the playcalling...
I just can't let this blatant lie slide. You said it IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SECOND DRIVE - right after we'd gone down the field brilliantly for a TD on the first drive. At the time you said it, it was silly. It would have made more sense if you'd said it in the second half.

Secondly, NO ONE called you an "idiot" at any time. There was some sarcasm there, but no name calling. You need thicker skin, old hoss.

The banter in the box during games is just not to be taken seriously. Think---- quips, sarcasm, hyperbole, tongue-in-cheek, oxrageousness, outlandishness, foolishness, idiocy, etc.....and for a few of us even parallel universes.

Lighten up, Willisii.

:lol: This thread...just wow.

And I still don't know what offended Hogtowne so much. It may be why less females post. I don't remember anything being offensive or worse than what's said in some threads. I'll admit certain things people say piss me off, but I'm not going to pitch a bitch fit in public and announce I'm leaving. If I have that big a problem I'll do my best to handle it privately the way it should be. And I won't announce to the world I've gotten or sent PMs.

If you think the mods on this board are heavy handed, you haven't been on many message boards. Differences of opinion will always exist. The moment you voice yours in a public forum, you open yourself up to criticism. Ox has said it many times, message boards aren't for everybody.

That being said, we lost a pretty good poster after this weekend due to a perceived "offensive tone" in the chat box. I really hate seeing good posters leave due to poor behavior by others. I haven't been scrutinizing everything said in the chat box during games because quite frankly, I'm trying to watch the damn games. At some point, you would hope people would understand it's a public forum and especially the chat box is right out front and in full view of anyone who just happens to stop by. Generally speaking, the average adult should understand the implied assumption that the chat box language should always remain G rated simply because of it's visibility. Unfortunately, not everyone fits into the average adult category.


G rated? Come on man, a little PG 13 never killed anybody ;)

P.S. Sorry if this comes across as scrutinizing or clamping down on you :lol2:

Wait until Festivus to "air your grievances". Until then, put on your big boy pants and sack up.

There really wasn't a whole lot to concentrate on during the 2nd half against Mizzou. Unless you REALLY like punting. :lol:

Yeah, defenses really took over in the second half. Or the crappy offenses did. Either way.

A few weeks ago I learned an object lesson on "distracted TV watching". I streamed "Narcos" on Netflix (excellent show, by the way). Anyway, I do have a habit of surfing the web while watching TV - mostly with my phone, but sometimes with my laptop. Much of "Narcos" is subtitled - something I'm not used to. While lost in an episode, I'd habitually and mindlessly grab my phone, start to surf while still listening to the TV, then look up at the TV and realize I'd missed a crapload of dialogue that I was supposed to read. I spent the first 2 or 3 episodes having to rewind to rewatch chunks of the show I'd missed because of this Pavlovian behavior before breaking the habit....
