[amdhunter]

Ignant people piss me off too.

Why the fuck would someone waste their time being a "fantasy football commissioner"?

I can't think of a more useless activity.

(oh wait, i'm posting in ATOT)

I can't think of two more useless activities.

Well there you go. Did you think that remark was appropriate?

You over-reacted. Tell everyone you don't like reading such comments, and if they are your friends, they will respect your views.

There is a difference when approaching someone with "I do not like seeing the n-word, and prefer it not be used within my fantasy football league" and "Fuck You, you ignorant racist FUCK! I fucking HATE you!" One is an appropriate response, while the other is not. And guess which one of you it says more about?

How do you know I overreacted? You don't know the response I had with them? Here, I am pissed and showing my emotions. With them I didn't make a public scene of it. I communicated my feelings about it via private messages.

That said, joking about one's mom or sister is one thing. As I've said. Clearly it was a joke. Calling someone a nagger is not joking - because that shit isn't funny, ever.

I'll never understand that word. Black people can call each other that term and it's not derogatory or ignorant, but it becomes that way when a 'non-black' person says that to a black person?

The only reason there is racism is because people call attention to it. Leave it alone and everyone is on par. And not for nothing, but its sports...

It's an insider vs. outsider thing. A member vs. non-member. That's about as simply as I can explain it to you.

Yeah, no. It's just plain bullshit.

I was simply following what you wrote.

(1) the other guy trash talked him with comments involving his sister and possibly something of a sexual nature.
(1) this guy added the n-word in his taunt back.
(2) you declare he is an "ignorant racist fuck" and want him ostracized.

Is my sequence of events wrong? If you want to offer some other examples of his racist behavior, be my guest! If not, then in my *subjective* opinion you over-reacted. I look at that sequence of events and I say it is insufficient for me to conclude he is an "ignorant racist fuck."

To me, the n-word is just 6 letters, nothing more, nothing less. I will never feel the deep emotional response it triggers in other people. I can respect your view that you passionately never want to hear that word. But you have to respect other people's views too. I guarantee there are things that trigger deep emotional responses to me, that you would say "I don't get it." Respect goes both ways.

Hell, you just deeply pissed off anyone who has had a loved one suffer through rape. And you just pass it off as no big deal, all in the name of joking! You ignorant fuck.


(have you figured it out yet?)

I won't be inviting him back next year. Sad thing is another guy just called me about it and tried to defend his actions. *sigh* I just spent the last 15 minutes trying to explain to this guy why shit talking about someone's mom is one thing, but calling someone a n'er is a whole different thing.

if some jackass said some vile shit like that about my mother we would have a problem.

Or more likely just another way to keep themselves separated so they can call racism to 'non-members'.

I love ignorant people. Wihtout them the rest of us wouldn't have a baseline to guage our brilliance on.

btw, the guy that wrote that is just a plain dumbfuck.
