Smack talk in the Sports Forum has always been the best.

A bit tamer now because of the stupid juries, but still the best.

Oh sure I get my ass kicked quite a bit here--- but --- I've kicked some ass myself.

Some of you new guys may not have been here during the Cboy4 days. Holy Moly he was really good at stirring up shit in the Sports section---I mean legendary good. AND then came Upton---who many suspected to be Cboy's Sock Puppet.

El Supremo absolutely cracks me up with his avatar changes and he takes the smack in stride and returns fire effectively.

We all kick the shit out of each other and sometimes we get a bit mean---I'm guilty of that....but all in all...We have fun.

Which brings me to Joeybee: Dude---what the hell? You are one of the best smack talkers in this joint. You kick my ass daily.

Remember Bully-Gate...I'm a fucking Phin fan!!!!!

This putting us on ignore is chickenshit! Take your lumps, defend your boy, and this will all be gone in about 10 years--maybe 20.

I don't participate as much as others but there are some topics that get me riled up. Well put, trumadinmaryland.

I pulled that shit in the past without actually ignoring anyone. It's a way of gaining attention.

Imagine how happy you & I would be if our Vikings finally won the big one. Only to find that they cheated to do it. Of course my initial reaction would be to justify it by any means possible. Blame the media for sensationalizing it. Etc.

is on this weekend. Should be a good, action-packed bout. Might not last a round.

Maybe Joeybee is taking it to the ropes on l'affaire deBradygate .

I know I don't intend to get into any lengthy debates on it myself.

What am I supposed to do? Root for the Jets?
