So how's it going? (3 Viewers)

[NCCommish]

Hello everyone. Some may remember me some may not.

I got a very nice message saying I was missed. So I decided to see what was up. Not sure I'm a fit here anymore. Seems like it's been pretty much scrubbed of anything real to talk about. In this day with what is going on in this country and no ability to discuss it here? I'm in a bit of mourning for what was lost.

Now it's Joe's place and I know his opinion on if you don't like something here, and he is completely within his rights to do as he wishes with it. It's just sad to see.

So not sure how much I'll stick around but I do have one thing I'd like to discuss that I don't think is too political and see what you guys think.

To all the OGs still here love you guys. To the new folks you missed some stuff.

We can't discuss politics or religion because it brings out the worst in all of us. That's not a "Joe" thing, it's a societal. Joe was right to nip in the bud before we all started hating one another. Don't take it out on him, please. There are dozens of social media forums for you or me or anybody to discuss and argue hot topics of the day. This is a fantasy football message board that does a whole lot better when we aren't angry at each other over things we have no control over.

I miss you too, NC. But don't go after Joe, please. He's doing the best he can to keep this place open and operational at no cost to us.

I'm not going after Joe at all. His house his rules. Never had a problem with that and don't now. I just disagree.

How would you manage things differently here?

 

[Bossman]

I also miss the discussion and debate in here of the now taboo topics.
I enjoyed reading and trying to understand what I consider "the other sides" views and opinions. Learn some stuff along the way.
... but I do understand why it had to go away.
Unfortunately I've not been able to find anything the same to replace it.

There are zero music ranking threads on first two pages - zero.

People actually like each other in the handful of music threads that do exits - imagine that.

Thanks @mr. furley

And welcome back @NCCommish . Always great to see you. Not sure on the "I know his opinion on if you don't like something here", line. We've tried to be extremely thoughtful and sincere in what topics we have here.

We gave a valiant effort I thought for several years in trying to allow politics and probably tried a couple years too long in an effort to make it work. We could not. But that's not much about what I like.

The reality is there's lots of community here and it's strong. With lots of smart people with lots of experience. And we have other things to talk about besides politics. Hope you join us.

You must really hate music for some reason because I've seen you spread this hyperbole a few times the last few days

Maybe start some topics about things you do like.

No, I like music, but it had become, in my opinion, comical how many of these have been started. I am still allowed to have an opinion or make an observation am I not?

If you want to make inaccurate statements, I guess you do have that right.

Joe glad to see you. Correct me if I'm wrong but your position has always been if you don't like the rules here there are other places to post. Which I think is perfectly valid and have no problem with. Like I said your house your rules. That's what I was referring to. Thanks for the welcome back.

[NCCommish]

So I guess I should also catch you guys up on how things are going here. My wife passed away in early February. I think it was a heart attack but I don't know because the coroner in the relatively small town we lived in at the time just wrote it off to natural causes with an external exam.

I moved to Tennessee to be near my elderly parents after that to help them out. And now I work for Buc-ees. Pay is really good, I have good benefits and it's not the worst place I've ever worked. If you guy are interested I'll do an AMA.

Next week I move into my new place. I've been staying with parents while I saved up but we all need our privacy at this point. So I'm looking forward to it.
