I have a request.

Could everyone please put your gender in your profile? Male, Female or Trans.

I ask this because after 8 years of assuming Joeybee12 was a male, someone just said she was a she.

I really can't think of a good reason to hide your gender. But I may be wrong. What do you think?

Fuck me! Oh well--- yes I'm trying to get along with her---him.

Notice the new and nicer trumad for 2012.

Hell--- I'm even trying with Upton.

I consider the long time regulars here in the DU sports forum Brothers and Sisters and I enjoy their company.

It's these newbies coming in with their high horse crap I'm having a problem with.

OK--with that said--you guys are still douchebags.

Given the fact that I have posted in the Sports forum since it started (wasn't a group in 2003,That I know of, on edit.) (as MrsGrumpy). Not a newbie. And yet, I mostly don't have a problem with you.
