Now why do I get in trouble for posting personal pictures? 9yr is going to be pissed.

[QUOTE=9YRPLAN;352964]we didnt have a debate team. i came in the first day, dominated, and they shut it down.

remember, if you arent here to argue and discussion, but rather meet new people and find friends, there is always the Happy Panthers Club.[/QUOTE]

My point in this thread is that what Rice and his minion did during the basketball practices is so wrong and beyond the pale that there is nothing to argue about. It was wrong, pure and simple, and cannot be condoned, explained, or even half-heartedly defended in any way, shape, or form, and to try and compare it to miltary basic training under the guise of asking questions about what are the best ways to train our young people for future success is just an obfuscation of the issue.

To the bolded point; if your main objective for being on this board is to "stir the pot" and create arguments and/or discussion, than you cannot by rule get all defensive and thin-skinned when your "pot stirring" results in strong words used in arguments against your points. To do so makes you look silly and whiny.

Bloomberg Radio reporting that Rutgers AD is out the door. So unexpected (in the land of 9yearplan, at least)

in other words, "opinions are only tolerated if I agree with them"

how sad that you cant even recognize the point of the argument.

Now that's the pot calling the kettle black if I ever saw it. Examples: any discussion about anything remotely negative about U of I. Gee, thanks so much for being the "voice of reason" once again. What has happened to you lately, 9? You used to be such an easygoing guy on here - now it's all piss and vinegar.

Re: OT: Rutgers Head Coach Mike Rice is not a good person

i am bored. i guess i am in the wrong place for a deeper discussion of anything.

by the way, i am guessing that my pissy-ness coincided with crazy people unable to separate message board discussion from real life.

Re: OT: Rutgers Head Coach Mike Rice is not a good person

Nothing wrong with deeper discussion of any topic; however calling people "gaping vaginas" and the like probably won't lead to many intelligent discussions.

Re: OT: Rutgers Head Coach Mike Rice is not a good person

There is something terribly wrong here 9yr has made 3 straight posts and TH hasn't posted right after him? I wonder if TH is ok?

you should create an alternate twitter account posing as an iowa fan and notify him that i am posting, along with my name, address, and place of employment.

it was in reference to the coach getting the Axe but now it's apparently Lakes Bison's senior picture

Re: OT: Rutgers Head Coach Mike Rice is not a good person

I doubt Lakes uses Axe. I always pictured him as more of a doe estrus type of guy
