PATIENCE!!!! Try to be a FAN!! History Lesson

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

Iventop, thanks for your post clairfying your previous post. It wasn't so much any single post that got me (and a few others) on the defensive. I think it was just the whole "atmosphere" following the loss to the Browns. Another contributory factor was that electronic messages sometimes do not properly convey one's genuine attitude; so a post can often be taken in the wrong manner.

I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone in my posts and for the second time, I do sincerely apologize if I did - believe me that it was in error.

Hogskin, I'm not quite sure what to say. I don't harbor any ill will towards you and I didn't mean to indicate that I do in any of my posts. My recent posts in this thread have been intended to "clear the air" and try to smooth things over. I tried to show where I was coming from - hence my apology and disclaimer that I was not trying to attack anyone, just explain things. I'm not quite sure why you're fired up at me....maybe its an "electronic misunderstanding?"

Fair enough, Ramseyfan. You made an excellent point about electronic messages. As far as the heated exchange, I guess you just hit a nerve for me on that one issue. It's all in the past as far as I am concerned. I don't ever hold grudges.

OH!!! I just realized you may think my last post was directed at you. It was not - it was for the "finger" I received.

One last general comment, and I'll stop there. It seems very difficult to be allowed to just have a positive or hopeful thread here. Matty tried it with his thread - and even asked the negative posters to not post in that thread. They took it over. I tried a thread giving a message of hopefullness, and after several very positive responses, folks decided to tear it down.

There are so many negative threads here, it's a shame we are not able to have one positive one.
