Greg, since when is telling a fellow poster to "f-off" acceptable?

Oski003 should be banned.

He's had a history of trolling and shaming in this forum. Yet nothing is ever done. One of the reasons I left OT.

Welcome back to off-topic. Aunbear89 came into a legitimate topic and posted nothing substantive besides challenging me and calling me a name. I requested he reply with something substantive or shut the f up, which is a perfectly reasonable request.
I think pointing out the expensive investigations of Bill and Hillary Clinton was a very legitimate reply to your whine about the money spent investigating Trump. You didn't like being shown up and stepped over the line in your response.

I am not surprised by your stance here, nor your characterization of my post as whining. You are defending your group's bully, as well as your politics. Substantive discussion was welcomed. That was the point of the post, to discuss the amount of money spent on the Trump document investigation, which was almost 10 million dollars in the four month time period reported.

Again, Aunbear89 comes into a topic with no substance and throwing insults.

"The moron with dozens of sock puppet accounts brings up intellectual integrity."

Flagged this morning in the Invasion of Ukraine thread.
Heh.

Happy to have you explain to me how your "joke" wasn't just inappropriate racist innuendo? Please enlighten me.

Would you find it funny if someone said we've had enough black QBs at Cal? Because what you said is equivalent just FYI

I don't agree its the same thing at all, I did not denigrate Calzada due to his ethnicity as a Latino. I didn't say he sucked because of where his ancestors were born either. I was merely referring to the tiring drama around Mendoza and the interesting coincidence that Calzada is also Cuban American. I've watched a ton of college football in all my boomer years and I don't remember hearing about any other Cuban American QBs. I'm sure there have been some, it doesn't really matter. You didn't think it was even mildly amusing...that's ok.

So I've explained myself, I hope you can move on. I don't plan on responding to this further but figured I'd explain my thought process FWIW

I sincerely thank you for the reply. At least you confirmed that your joke was no more or less complicated than I assumed and I assure you nothing was "over my head." It may not matter to you but I feel obliged to point out that this type of ethnic humor is not funny to most millennials and younger. Unless you are of the same ethnicity, race or other discrete minority group or happen to know the target of the joke personally, it's just inappropriate to reference ones ethnicity or race as part of a joke. What if Nando or one of his family members were on the chat? Or any Cuban American? Good chance they would be offended. Is it worth the risk of offending to make that joke? Would you say that joke to Nando or Zach's face? Probably not bc you know you might get decked. But you did it on the chat bc you know you're protected by anonymity. It's at best uninformed and at worst cowardice. Football forums with hundreds if not thousands of participants are just not the place for this type of humor in 2024.
