if thats not comparing what is ? maybe you should look up opposed Originally Posted by CJ7

I know I can do it if no one insults me. I have my doubts about how many others can, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
Can anybody even respond to my initial post without hurling a name or insult?
Anybody? Originally Posted by markroxny

And don't forget the up and coming North Korea, or the beautiful life that can be had in Venezuela, according to Sean Penn.I stand corrected.
See how well socialism works? That's why the Soviet Union continues to thrive. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

But you can see the caliber of individuals you are dealing with.
I think I keep it polite with 95% of all posters. But there is at least one half-wit on this board that is deadlocked in naming calling arguments with about 80% of the board. After about 3 posts, he resorts to name-calling and I respond in kind. He long ago gave up any right to be treated like an adult. Originally Posted by ExNYer

Nope. Mets, Jets, and Islanders.The Mets are cool, too. I still remember when Casey Stengel managed them. My Dad grew up in Flatbush, and indoctrinated me in all things New York. Of course, that was before the Mets, and he is still mad about the Giants and Dodgers moving.
Although unlike many in NY, I don't feel hatred for the other NY teams that I do not root for. Originally Posted by ExNYer

You really do have comprehension issues, don't you. Originally Posted by NiceGuy53COG might do so but he is a lying or better stated distorting my post. I used a quote from a famous person(can't remember who) from wiki, you do not need to link that as a source as it is a direct qoute. In my haste , I included a comment from that wiki link. Never have I tried to pass off shit as my own. COG is just mad at me because I outted he a JD Cornhole as butt fucs.

I LOVE the Yankees!
