The fact of the matter is, it's probably good that we don't 'share' views on everything.
I don't see the Washington Post promoting the Times and vice versa. We watch ESPN because they are going to give us a different flavor than Fox or CBS. I like the flavor of Warpath, it fits me. Shit, if I want some ES articles, I'll go over there and check it out.
I'm oversimplifying some, but you get my point.
I've been a member here for a little over a year I guess, and while I think there is a healthy, for lack of a better word, rivalry, I don't sense any hatred.
So in the spirit of competiveness..I bid my brothren at Extremes the very best....more power to them. But for me, home is where the heart is.

I totally agree with you on all counts. Being new here, I wasn't sure what the vibe was between the boards and I'm not here to debate the pros and cons of either one. There is a reason I signed up here and I must admit this board has been much more responsive and accepting of me as a new member than ES was. I really haven't posted much on ES anyway because there tends to be this "blood in the water" mentality with a few of the members, but I do enjoy reading alot of the content by the mods. The bottom line for me is, this is ultimately "your house". I would just like to be clear on what the consensus is on this issue so I can act accordingly.
