friesianrider has blocked PMs, so I will apologize in public
My thread was obnoxious and wrong.

I'd have apologized in private via PM, but can't. Her PM is shut off. So here it is in public.

My thread sucked, and was wrong to boot.

The Eagles still suck. Oh yes they do.

But making things personal was wrong, and I am sorry. There it is.

friesianrider still makes me nuts, and we will brawl from now until whenever. But I fucked up.

Cheers to friesianrider. I apologize. We're not friends, but I know enough to know when I've screwed up. My apologies.

1. Good for you, but frankly
I didn't think it was any rougher than what would be said in the typical American sports bar, and locking it for 'calling out' somebody was asinine.

Yeah, yeah, I know, "Please direct any comments or concerns to the DU admins." Like that ever does any good. :eyes:

4. Well, at least you can know that you're the bigger person
Some people are just entirely too thin-skinned about sports (or anything for that matter), and love to dish out what they can't take. But anyway, that's quite gracious of you.

Come now. If I'm thin-skinned, what does that make you? :) I wasn't the one bitching that "people are always talking smack about the Patriots." Because we all know the Patriots give a crap that you're here defending their losing-asses like a Mommy defends her first-born baby :crazy: People talk shit about the Eagles when they suck (and boy did they ever this year), but the thing about being a Philly fan is we usually talk more shit about our own team than other team fans do. When the Eagles are playing like shit, those players had better be scared to walk down any street in Philly. No one here gives any athlete a free pass.

I mean really...f you can't handle the smack talking, don't be a football fan! :hi: It's part of the game kids - it's amazing (or, is it, sad?) how many people get SO bent out of shape about a team!

O Defender of T.O. In All His Majesty - I've seen you visit your wrath on anyone who disagrees with your assessment of anything.

8. Thanks
It's all in good fun, Will, honestly. No biggie. :hi:

I'm sure you'll get plenty of opportunities to get me back for my taking pleasure in the Patriots losing...as an Eagles fan, I'm quite accustomed to being disappointed in my team :)

12. This sucks
I expected fireworks, or at least mildly entertaining and obnoxious back and forth.

I posted in that late night thread on Sunday after noticing Will got it wrong by assuming friesanrider had switched allegiances to the Colts since she wrote ponies.

Now, several days later, nothing high decibel at all. A lock and an apology. That's not football.

BTW, as a Dolphin fan I volunteer to win 3 of the next 4 Super Bowls and then be called out as pathetic and overrated after losing in the second round in 2010.
