well for the life of me, I have no idea why some posters, who we assume are human beings over the age of 17? care to continue vendettas on a message board. For one thing we are all fans of the same team (no I am a ND fan regardless of who the coach is; and I will never attribute infallibility to a coach).
To boot this is a Notre Dame forum (a predominantly Christian associated, at least in connotation), university).
These kind of exchanges reflect poorly on ND, ND fans and 'grown ups' in general.
But, message board bullying will not run amuck, w/o response.
Bury the hatchet, and talk football: great. discussions are on topics, not posters.
It realyy is up to the posters who want to conduct the forum and discussions with respect ( and no one gets to be the 'respect police')
I always say the best way to disagree is with a better argument/case. Name calling and personal attacks will result in like reply.
