An anti-DPM response I wanted all of you to add to

I wrote what I thought was a good response to a typical DPM post, and I want all of you to add to it if you feel the need. I said everything that was on my mind, and I hope that some of you will do the same. I'm not angry...merely tired.

"What argument are you talking about here? If it's the "Chris Perry is better than Rudi" argument, then you aren't right. Chris Perry was injured most of the year and didn't do much in the time that he played, and Rudi just set the Bengals' single-season rushing record. I don't understand how that makes Perry an automatic improvement over Rudi, and you haven't given any facts to support that claim, just your opinion.

If it's the "Corey Dillon is better than Mad Williams" argument, well no s**t, dumba**. Dillon is an All-Pro RB with years of experience under his belt, and Mad is a 2nd-year starter who was one of the hottest young defensive rookies in the NFL last year. Despite the fact that they play two different positions, yes, Dillon has been better at his position for a longer period of time, but while he was a team cancer who had to be shipped off to avoid hearing his whiny, bitching mouth, Williams brought much-needed improvement to the secondary and looks to be a star in the coming years.

If it's the "Rudi is an average RB" argument, you're basically arguing a point that many actually agree with you on because you feel the need to get under people's skin. No, Rudi isn't a star RB, but he's pretty damn good, and he's the guy that will be our starting RB in the 2005-06 playoffs. If your argument is that he is an average-at-best RB because he isn't Corey Dillon, then he probably falls under the category of the other hundreds of NFL players who, in your wise opinion, aren't (or aren't as good as) Corey Dillon.

What other arguments have you made where you have used factual evidence over personal opinion to prove that you are right? I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I didn't have a 3.7 GPA in college ;)

I don't use personal insults because you are using arguments where I cannot defend my point of view...I insult you because you claim to be a fan of a team, yet you seem to hate most of the players on that team. I insult you because you pass off personal opinion as fact and try to make people feel stupid when they argue your points. I insult you because you act like an elitist, yet you can't spell common words correctly without using a spell check and use the same five points when arguing any subject. I insult you because you are a cancer on a board where even those who disagree with each other share a mutual respect and don't try to make others feel unintelligent, because we are here for the same reasons and share a love for the same team.

So while I am sure that you will enjoy this immensely, and that it probably just proves that in your eyes I'm a neanderthal and am incapable of being constructive without being insulting, I hardly seem to care anymore. I am one of many who wishes that you would just go back to whatever board it was that you plagued before this one and continue to revel in the fact that no one likes you, but it's only because they don't understand your "greatness."

Have a wonderful day."

Why is so much energy put into arguing with people like that?  You're not going to change his mind.

I think we should rent out a boxing ring and have "BengalsZONE FIGHT NIGHT!" Heck, I wonder if they'd let us do it at PBS. Doubtful, but it does sound cool... then again, there maybe a few hippies that may challenge me to a bare-knuckled brawl :blink:

Uhh, since when do i make people feel stupid for disagreeing with me? I think you guys need to stop taking these posts so seriously. I state my opinions, if you disagree with them, you dont have to get offended, i dont sit here making fun of you guys personally, i attack stupid arguements, i don't appreciate it when i am insulted personally, especially considering its not something that i do to you guys.

...I insult you because you claim to be a fan of a team, yet you seem to hate most of the players on that team.

^^^ I don't hate most of the players. I dont hate any of them. There are some players that i dont like, and some that i don't think are starter material, but for every 1 i don't like, there are 2 that i do like. Just because Corey Dillon is my favorite player, doesnt mean the bengals arent my favorite team. I don't get why its wrong to like players on different teams. Im a fan of a lot of players around the league (Culpepper, Takeo Spikes, LT), but i never want them to win if they are playing the bengals.

His name is DontPushMe...I'm lazy, so I shortened it to DPM. He just said something that set me off, so I wrote about it.
