Rarely does anyone tell a poster what they can post. Calling someone out for ridiculous comments is not telling them how or what to post. That just doesn’t happen. I would venture to say the negative “knee-jerk” reactions are 5:1 negative to positive (I don’t have actual figures), which to me is insane given the record of the Brewers.

This is just patently false.  There are literally posts in this IGT telling other posters to relax, as if the offender has any idea how relaxed any other poster is or is not.  I would bet 90% of the toxicity goes away if the unicorns and rainbows crowd just accepts that the whole world does not view things like they do.  You don't have undertand it or like it, but you do have to accept it.  If it's OK to "call out" what you percieve as ridiculous comments then everyone else has the right to do the same to your rediculous comments, as I preceive them.  This is about YOUR intolerence.

Yeah, and you are one of the guys who wants to control how others post.

Read the writing on the wall man, the IGT just isn't for you.

Rarely was what I said. Rarely. One or two posts in a thread that says that is rarely. What is your fascination with unicorns and rainbows. What are you referring too? The positive comments?

Show me where I want to control what people want to post.

Makes a nonsensical and reactionary comment. Rightly gets called out for it. "How dare you!" Or something...

Works both ways. You can definitely post whatever you want. But at the same time someone is totally free to point out how over the top and non-factual it is as some of the early game comments were particularly so yesterday. Freedom of opinion=a beautiful thing!

I don't have to.

Your comments toward all those that don't post how you like proves it in spades.

The IGT thread just isn't for you.

Please don’t try and control where I should post.

You are sooooo witty...

It's ok to admit that the IGT isn't for "certain" personalities...

there are clearly positive cheering and negative posts every game on here

some people only see what they want to see.  If  cris collinsworth doesn’t spend the whole three hours saying g how great the packers are, it’s “everyone hates the packers” blah blah blah.   That’s what it devolves into when you have to have a freaking autopsy every game on the degrees of negativity in here.  Nothing will ever satisfy anyone.    At this point who gives a ****

Not often the IGT stuff pours into the next day.   I’m ready for the twits and turns of a new game.  

If the play on words was intended, well done sir.
