i have ONE infraction on my record so far...and it was over something that in retrospect, was pretty ignorant. BUT what i said about Sproles and his talking issues is getting alot of heat...BUT there is a thread...and actual THREAD about his stuttering problem.

hypocracy...i just don't get it.

Thank-you. At least in here you won't be blind sided by those kinds of things. You enter expecting to see a "train wreck" so to speak.

Being fat and gay (in 99% of cases) are one's own preferences. Being born with a speech impediment is not a matter of preference.

I thought all of you were above this petty bullshit.

If you don't like the way this board is being moderated, take it up with Mike.

I'm sorry Hitman, but I am NOT going to allow anyone to make fun of another person's disability. Being a disabled person myself, I find it ignorant as hell and very low.

Not if you have a thyroid problem. And a lot of gay men and women will tell you they were born that way.

Hey, I have my own disabilities. I have a severe kidney disease but I don't care if a boxer gives kidney punches.

But Mike created the Blast Furnace with the disclaimer. And I donate money to Mike.

SteelCityKing · 01-04-2009, 08:03 PM

what about everyone calling certain players retarded?

i think that totally crosses the line, BUT...it's going to happen. in the Blast Furnace it's going to happen.

so, i'm in no position to tell you how to do your job, but someone has to. let whatever happen happen. whatever someone says, let it be said. because making fun of Sproles not knowing how to talk is the least of your worries. i'm sorry if THIS offends you, but i, among others can see the hypocracy and it's really annoying.

so, either delete this thread or keep sending people infractions and tell them to keep their comments in the Blast Furnace where people who are sensitive dare not travel.

i have an infraction already. i get what i said was wrong, but i don't think what i said about Sproles is even worth making a fuss about. but that's just me...and 43Hitman.

ppl being fat is there own choice.. there are SOME cases of thyroid problems but for the most part it is b/c they can't stop eating...

And being GAY is A CHOICE.. don't give me that BS that they were born gay.. there is no gay gene..

the reason it's wrong is b/c he DOES NOT HAVE A CHOICE TO HAVE IT OR NOT...

u have a choice to be fat, gay, smoke, thug, or w/e... the jokes are based on there choices not what they were dealt
