Every Sunday morning this place turns into a cesspool.
HA! Can't imagine why I've stuck around for a couple decades... 
@Esox posted:Well Blair, it's like this: Everyone is wired differently. We have:
1) Whiners,
2) Whiners, who whine about whiners; and,
3) Whiners who whine about the whiners who whine about the whiners.
I consider myself in the latter group.
Seriously, to me, there are two extreme groups of contributors within this forum:
1) The extreme optimists who do not want to read anything negative about the Pack. To them, such an act is considered sacrilegious and the offender should be painted purple and then excommunicated from Packer Nation for such behavior or die!
And,
2) The extreme pessimists, who just have nothing but negative posts and/or provide ridiculous statements such "Fire TT, MM etc."
I find it comical and sometimes pathetic, but sometime entertaining to see these two groups of contributors go after each other.
Me, I'm somewhat emotional and can get caught up in the games, such as last night when MM did not challenge the incompletion. I thought that decision was FU, but by no means do I dislike MM. Heck, I think he's a damn good, but sometimes stubborn coach. So yeah, I will continue to bitch or applaud as warranted, but never hate!
I also admit that I am a bit of a pessimist, and when I get a bit bummed out regarding the Packers' situation (such as in the case now) I find myself looking for a collection of optimistic posts to fuel me with some hope and/or enthusiasm - something to chew on. I can't drink IPAs everyday.
Anyway, that's my take.
We got winners
We got losers
Constant whiners and boozers
We got stupid trolls
We got free range A holes
We even had us a Jaymo
And the girls next door compete for Miss X's Four
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, I love this board.
Apologizing in advance to Toby.
Blair is the best game thread monitor of all time. His diligence policing peoples reactions is 2nd to none. Rumor is that he started mastering his skills at an early age as a hall monitor. While other kids were trying to sneak a smoke in the can or sneak a kiss from a curious girl, he was laser focused on telling the other children how to behave properly. We need to get this man a lifetime achievement award.
We probably need to revisit Keils guidebook to X4 etiquette
it’s a cookbook

What makes you think he doesn't already have several of them?
