I understand that jacks dad isn't doing well and i wish him the best, and know you guys are busy. just a quick question?
WHERE IS THE IGNORE BUTTON? I THINK I LOST IT?
i mean, I like to read all threads because i really like to digest information from even the idiots, and i have way too much time for one person to use productively.
But now, I've come to a point in my life where i can't take it anymore. without singling anyone out in particular, how do i ignore someone and make this place more enjoyable for myself without getting flustered with some. i used to do it, but can't find the function anymore.
Just so no one gets offended, if any of the below descriptions concur with your beliefs or opinions, I'm talking about you.
do you:
1. talk openly about the general public is betting so and so knowing full well that you are as sharp as a rusty dull butter knife, and wouldn't know who the public is betting if it hit you in the head.
2. talk about the public hammering, i mean just frigging hammering appalachian st. games that aren't televised. because we all know the public likes to hammer east coast non televised basketball games.
3. quote line moves from such square outs as canadian books and those named after a dog.
4. talk about winning 3k for the board as if you are the king of swing and as if 3k is actually a meaningful amount of money.
5. use the lock word in any meaningful way. or any unmeaningful way
6. reference the term soda pop, or pop, or any other feminine word when ordering a coke. even if you really want a sprite.
7. use such words as gayer when saying something derogatory. example, that line that came out is so gay.
8. absolutely ignore feedback or questions from others because you obviously cannot be wrong.
9. recap previous winners to prove that in fact, you did know it all and that everyone else is dumb.
10. quote amounts of your bets like you are betting 1000, which ps, isn't really all that much money and use expressions like huge, humongous, larger than life, as if i think you are a big shot hot to trot sharp, when in fact since you see that money as large when in fact it wouldn't even move a line a penny overnight, and you are a dumb college aged kid who unfortunately got this web site address.
11. use more than one user name
12. user named after pele.
13. quote how you are laying the lumber on minus -5000 moneylines and then expecting everyone to tell you how great you are when somehow it hits. and how we are all idiots for not follwing you.
14. posting a play and then going into every other thread on the subject and reposting your play if its in opposition to what they like.
15. giving reasons for games, such as: they are gonna crush them, they are just better, and my favorite, the last 3 times they've played, team a has crushed team b when in fact they haven't played in 20 years, but team a did in fact crush team b 20,21,and 22 years ago.
16. did i mention using the term pop when refering to sprite which is really in actuality order by saying give me a coke, and then the waitress or bartender can ask which kind to which you refer sprite.
Thanks again IE and Jack for such a great site, just wondering if you could point me to the ignore button so my experience can be improved without wasting anyones time.

oh also, i know there is off the wall, but is there a chance we can get a curling/womens handball/chess forum open. Not a lot of people visit off the wall, but with the womens handball finals concluding this week and lots of money to be made, i think some readers would find it an exhilirating read.
thanks again, sorry to those i offend.
