Please listen to me for a minute here! First off lets everyone take a step back and calm down.. deeeeep breath.... OK.
First off I want to implore Dan not to go. Dan you bring a witty sense of humor and a lot of sportsworld knowledge to this forum and I know you would be sorely missed, please re-consider.
Brian, ( Bri ) you have not been much involved this year but you to are a great guy on the boards here and personally I would hate to see you go.
Skinpinch I have stated already that I respect you but let me ask you this, you did offend a few great guys here in your mission statement, with all due respect are you not going to paractice what you preach? Maybe you should apoligize to those who YOU offended. As far as Ax and Stown's bitter battles, Stown does not stand alone in his distaste for Ax and his offensive nature, I am well aware of the distastful things Stown has been subjected to by Ax, obviously the Mods agreed, thats why he was banned several times. Stown is a great guy who brings a TON of humor and info to this forum and has been around a long time. Why should he put up with threats? verbal assaults? He is here having fun like everyone else right? I know your heart was in the right place with your post but maybe it should have been worded differently? As far as Ax goes I personally did not have many problems with him other than when he was in his "JasonA" alias mode, his 5th or 6th alias is now Stitzen and yes he has tapered down quite a bit at the start but like I said before his old ways are almost back in full form, and now because of him infiltrating back into the forums everything is in an uproar now!
The Bottom line is Ax has been way out of line and owes many apoligies, but when crossing some lines apoligies just dont matter anymore. As the old saying goes "You make your own bed, and now you have to lay in it"
Anyways I am nobody other than a guy who enjoys these forums and the input from you guys and I hate to see it get ruined because of this. This my full dollar and if anyone happens to read it, thank you for listening. And sorry for the bad grammar..

I think the damage has been done, unfortunately...I hate to see valuable contributors like Dan & Bri go, but I can't say I blame them, either. BTW, I agree with your starements above, as well. It's also one of the main reasons I don't post here on this particular board as much, either.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
I apologized for offending New Yorkers in my statement in the other thread. That statement interferred with my intentions of lending a hand to somebody. It could, no it should have been worded better.
Perkdog, I showed hypocrisy in my generalizatios as you pointed out, and I am guilty of that.
I am sorry to New Yorkers for making negative generalized comments in your direction.
<< <i>Grote, Bri, softparade, if the damage has been done, I will bow out, and encourage you to stay. Hopefully Axtell can come on and mend some wounds. >>
Axtroll doesn't mend wounds. He inflicts them.
Thank you

I refused to comment on Skinpitch's thread because I thought it was completely distasteful and he decided to inflict damage on many to protect one. And the one is a bad seed. Now the good guys want to go.
In no way do I consider myself a good guy. In fact, I know I can be a downright a$$hole at times. Ive been trying to stick through the baseball season on the sports talk boards. Now with people going...many I enjoy the Yankees/Red Sox/baseball discussions with...are now leaving. I can't say I blame them one bit. As I said, Ive just been trying to get through the rest of baseball season before I disappear from there also.
I acknowledge my part in pounding Axhole into the ground. I have seen the loads and loads of CRAP and SPEW he has brought here over the last couple of years. Who do I support? A bunch of guys who I consider my fandom friends or the one idiot that throws crap? Sorry, I'll stick by my friends.
Oh, go ahead and support him now with his "newly"(not really) formed attitude. Mark my words...it will become the same thing in time. That is why I began with the quote "A leopard cant change his spots".
Thats all I have to say
All I will say at the moment is, I seriously hope that good posters and fellow board members Softparade and Bri3237 will stick around. Both of you guys are part of the reason why I like to post here - good, fun, commentary about the Sox and Yanks. If you guys go, who will I be able to pick on when the Sox eliminate the Yanks this year from the postseason?
It's just a sports talk forum, and everyone needs to chill out.
<< <i>Wow - miss one day here, and look at this mess. I don't have time to read it all, and frankly, it's probably best that I don't.

Well said CT.
Yankee bashing is no fun when the real Yankee fans don't bash right back. You guys should stay . . . and not just through the end of the season. I am looking forward to reading your comments when A-Rod decides to take Lowell's place at 3rd in Fenway.
