    So presenting an opinion contrary to that of the moderator is justification for being banned? I'm sure I didn't see that in the useage agreement...

    Yeah, right - SRJ merely posted an "opinion contrary to the moderator". You and SRJ are so alike. Both "wankers". Pass along the message to Marc as well, or did you assume we all thought it was pure coincidence a guy from Australia signs up right after he got tossed and starts defending him?

    T-minus 43 minutes.

    That's my prediction.

    I thought Screaming Rocket Jet was just pulling y'all's leg in a friendly way when he started this thread...didn't sound ill-spirited to me... :(.

    Yeah, I got that feeling as well. Just a little thing he thought might stir up some of the posters on the board. I'm sure he meant to harm to it all, just a bit of fun.

    But anyway, I can't speak for SRJ...


    For the record.....Aussie Rules Football came from the Irish 'Gaelic Football'. The immigrants to Australia changed the game enough so that we could call it out national game.

    I know absolutely nothing about American Football, but I watched most of the Superbowl and found it strangely entertaining, and I eventually got the general idea of the game. But I don't see myself getting totally 'into it', like I am with AFL or basketball.

    I know more about soccer (err....football ;) ), and quite enjoyed the World Cup.

    Hey, dimsie here again using hubby's account. Before I jump to conclusions or anything, what does it mean when I can log in but not post or read threads? Have *I* been banned?

    It could mean your mouth wrote a check your ass couldn't cash.

    Sorry... that's one of those American sayings. :D

    Yeah, cute, DoD. :) I still don't see the point of banning me. I insulted no one in this thread. All *I* did was laugh and ignore the 'shut the hell up' order from a self-styled authority figure. Banning me for that is awfully lame, don't you think? Clutch can't handle some chick giggling at him on a message board? Pathetic!

    dimsie,

    I like you and Elvis...you know that.

    But you can't say this to the guy that runs the site and expect no recourse:

    You don't think that was insulting what you said to Clutch?? I hate to think what you feel an insult is then.

    I would give it a couple of days and then maybe a contribution to the tip jar if you want to stay.

    Oh and continue to posting using Elvis's account will probably wind up getting him banned.

    I sincerely apologize :( ;).

    Oh, and by the way, we were lucky in that game, as in almost every single game since 1966 when we beat England and the Netherlands...too bad we keep screwing up in the Finals...3 out of the last 4 :(.

    Oh, and sorry for derailing this thread, too :). No harm intended.

    Clutch, don't take the southern hemisphereans too seriously... too much sun and alcohol. Free my people!

    Manny, you still don't understand girls my young padawan learner. If you had a wife or a girlfriend, she'd call you a dork everytime you logged on and give you the emphatic "uhhh... its just the web". dimsie is leadership material; sassy to the boss can be sassy to everyone else. Hell, make her an admin Clutch! Free my people!!

    LOL, Heb!

    You're probably right or it may be due to the fact that I had one of the most miserable experiences ever with Arby's and that was after a 10 hour work day!:mad:

    Thank God for Herbie Hancock!!

    Why are people sticking up for dimsie.

    She was being a b****, and she was practically begging to be banned. She basically said that Clutch had no authority over her.


    BTW, this whole thing is over some non-Americans with inferiority complexes. Deal with it. We're better, our sports our better, our athletes are better. Even in soccer we will be dominant as more of our kids start playing it. Deal with it!
