Sorry for getting out of hand on this whole Keith Nichol rumor. I still don't believe it, but there's no sense in getting into a pissing contest over it. Again my apology to the good people of Michigan.

You don't need to apologize.

A suggestion would be to just drop the confrontational BS and mix in a little variety into your posts.

Most here won't have any problem with your opinions whatsover.

Very true Glenn................Look at Zip, he has been such a good poster lately that we've forgotten what a weasel he was when he first posted (j/k Zippy!!!)

Actually, I think Zip's posts have gone downhill since day one.

Sorry, I was just reading the "sports cliche" thread and was trying to "light a fire" under Zip to "give us a spark".

Although I'm still pissed that Zip's Holiday Singalong never materialized.

Instead he got drunk and threw up in about 15 threads.

Well, the trouble with this forum is that there is too much time between posts. I like a conversation, a FLOW, if you will.
I think that actually I've had some pretty good stuff lately. My thing about Meadowlark Lemon was hilarious. Even my cat laughed at that one.
Actually glenn, I've tried to tone my stuff down a bit, because I had gotten the feeling that I was pissing too many people off, and when Jetrho said "Everybody hates the two newest posters..." I figured that, well, maybe I'm just an asshole.
But in all fairness, I think cccsdad has brought alot of energy to the board, and I've gotten a PM from another Sooner fan that tells me I hit a nerve there.
So, as assholes go, so go I. Take care WTF Detroit, you guys have a great site here, and I hope it grows to rival the Detroit News Big 10 forum, which is truly a conversation as message boards go, even if the News is run by a bunch of hypocrites who don;t know a moderator from an atom bomb.

The problem is that for some reason people post on ESPN, MLIVE or other boards that totally suck, but get more exposure than us.

I started off hating you, but meh, you are just having fun. You started trying to be a bit less crazy too. And I agree that more pace needs to be added, but you need more members for that, and we aren't there yet.

detroitsprts:
I'm easily hatable, and admit it. But, ax Dr Tre, I, though the biggest Michigan fan in a tri state area, told him to get in touch with an MSU fan who could bring life and new spirit to the board(Not that it needs new spirit, but it has a Michigan lean, and my buddy is a huge MSU fan who is informed, and can write with the best of them).
I am happy to announce that I will not leave this board, it NEEDS Zip Goshboots.
Why? Because I am a weirdo.
My Christmas stuff was innocent. I just thought it would be neat to see Zip Goshboots on every thread.
Why? Because I'm a loser who seeks validation. NO WAIT! Just kidding LOL PYTGB JHHUT
I just thought it would be funny.

cccsdad, you did make quite a name for yourself but manning up and apologizing for the way you approached disagreeing is cool in my book. (dont read into that as anything bad) IMO its fine that you dont agree, wouldnt be much of a forum if thats all we did was agree. Zip you are easily hateable, and I couldnt stand you at first. But after sifting through the bullshit and when you arent trying too hard you are pretty funny. FTR This is my fav board because it is smaller. Its more like a community, I actually have a grip on the personalities of the regulars here. Unfortunately a lot of people probably have a grip on my personality lol. I also think that for a board with basically no rules (look I said fuck) its moderated awesomely. Sure you can check back after a couple hours and have no new posts but that doesnt bother me.

UxKa, I NEVER "Try" to be funny. My posts are off the cuff, I don't think about 'em before I post, I feed off of what other people do, and if I miss the mark, so be it. At least I give it a shot.
Yeah, I could sit here and say shit like, "Say, maybe the lions could trade their 4th round pick AND third string linebacker Dink Fengroof for the 6th round pick and try to draft the running back out of New Mexico State, Hermie "The Gold Tooth" Pfiffnograph and develop him over the next couple of years" and BOOM! Shoot me in the fucking head if I ever get like that, PLEASE!
But no, I look at the world sideways, and that's the way it is. Sometimes its GOLD, and sometimes it pisses people off.
Now, tell me why I'm hateable. Go ahead. I can take it. Is it because I fart so much?

Hey I wasnt rippin on you. I chose the word hateable because you did in your previous post haha

That doesn't mean you have to agree with me.
Hell, if you think I'm that big an asshole, and you hate me that much, we shoulda got married!

I feel Zip, have from the start. And I would choose to read Zip's posts all day long before I read any more of Super Mod's babble.

Thanks, Jickboy. I honestly don't understand why Jetrho had his "hate on" for me from the start.
Zip Goshboots is sort of spiritual. It's a "thing". Any of you guys could do "Zip Goshboots" if you gave it a shot. If you see the words Zip Goshboots as your handle, BOOM, you're out there in left field wondering where Katarina Witt and Tommy Prothro are. You're wondering who's bringing the KY jelly and the paprika to the prom.
Ask hip digit. He'll fill ya in.

Zip, it sounds like you might have taken this post seriously.

I'll have you know that you are one of 485 finalists for WTFDetroit Rookie of the Year, and that is high praise.

I'll have you know that not only have I been nominated for your "Rookie of the Year" award, but Tom Brokaw has nominated me as one of the "Six Billion Nicest People In The World".

Well, all you have to do is make sure you don't confuse them at the wrong time.
