Thanks jersey and TBH. I read through it several times and came to the same conclusions. I mainly entered it here for confirmation. Although I have to say, some of the frothing brouhaha is very creative.

I am trying hard to refine my posts and comments. I have refrained from posting lately and just tried to read and "listen' to the tone and content, trying to get a better feel for whats acceptable material. To that end I would like your opinion on this column. It's not directly about sports, but it does involve sports figures and organizations.

I feel the need to apologise to you all for the OJDerby thread. I thought I had found something out in the weeds so to speak- not an AP or ESPN or Yahoo link, but a local story about an unusual columnist, and the reason why I put it under a Culture heading rather than say, Football. I had no inkling it would degenerate into the whole innocentguiltyracial pit that forced the admins to close it. My intent is always to provoke thought, not anger. I am also guilty of using the first few sentences of the article after the link, but in my defense I was following the format I saw in a lot of posts. I think I have a much better idea now of what you expect in posts, and I will definitely be more selective and original.

I didn't get an invite but here's $5 (USD) from my paypal account for Atheist's gender-sensitivity training. There is a thread on another really cool Ultimate Sports Community site about hoaxing some old folks on a primitive sports forum.
