No one wins, in that situation. The crazy redhead will never admit she is wrong, and
your time will be wasted, in trying to do so.

She cooks me dinner and drops it off all the time, on her way to work, just because she loves
me. I am a lucky man
No it's 100% in Cliffs hands now, and Cliff wasn't in on shutting it down.Canuck wrote:What a joke!! If adrian Peterson plays for the vikings anytime soonis this site going to shut down again. Freedom of speech is great isn't it.
After reading the sticky, like you said, it seems like it's now in Cliff's hands. I do hope the site wont be shut down again; if more abuse occurs perhaps other techniques for 'troll supression' can be used.PurpleHalo wrote: No it's 100% in Cliffs hands now, and Cliff wasn't in on shutting it down.
It's the reason why you wont see me commenting on stories like this. You get the heated clash of the forgivers and the lynch mob. These stories become so huge in themselves, it really gets old and over done. It is what it is (says Kelly Campbelljuventus1 wrote: After reading the sticky, like you said, it seems like it's now in Cliff's hands.

I wouldn't have expected this board to shut down in the first place, but the post I mentioned does explain much. Unfortunately reactionary/emotional responses from both sides have seemingly won the day when it comes to societal interaction regarding these recent issues (on a variety of platforms). Hopefully we can keep the arguments in the future both civil and productive.

I had not posted my feelings about the news regarding AP, but saw what was going on and I was very saddened to see the board was taken offline. I am glad that it is back, as I feel that though incidents like this can create stark divides in our opinions and might bring out our worst, this is in fact a great forum with great fans whose opinions on football should be heard. This situation regarding AP took us all off-guard and I think we all need to take a deep breath and accept that fact while looking forward to a season that likely won't be what we expected, with a cloudy future regarding the face of our franchise.
I woke up after a nap Friday afternoon to find a trade proposal in one of my fantasy leagues for AP, that was just too ridiculous to accept, and so I declined the trade. A while later, I turned on ESPN and realized what was happening (I probably should have taken the trade because my friend that offered it knew this was happening and where it would likely end up). The entire weekend I felt sick, which feels so weird to say. I was given the ticket from AP's 296 game in 2007 by a friend and I had it signed by him at training camp last month. I shook his hand and said to him, "I should get coach Turner to sign this too" and AP laughed, smiled and said, "He talks about that game everyday". It meant so much at the time, and I have always held AP in high regard despite his minor legal issues. I was fortunate to get his autograph and shake his hand last year at camp as well. It's not like I personally knew him, but in those two moments and as a Vikings fan, I felt like I did. This whole issue has me feeling sick, and I hope the best for AP. If that means he never plays for the Vikings or in the NFL again, so be it.
I am glad the forum is back, and lets hope that the Vikes can salvage something good this season without our best player
