Self defense applies to the American legal system, particularly when one feels an impending and reasonable threat, thereby justifying one to take action to prevent the said threat from being carried out.

You're assuming that calling names represents a threat and therefore justifies your actions in calling a name back. Calling someone a name in response does nothing to prevent any threats from being carried out.

Self Defense is used to prevent something from happening to you. That doesn't apply over a message board, you can't prevent anything.

Bring it on logic boy.

So, take your shot. Let me hear your logical argument.
Like I said, when you grow up, I'll engage you. Furthermore, Matty locked the thread for a reason, and I'm not about to go over his head.

Besides, you've already made my point for me. By taking your position on statistics, you recognize that you will never be able to prove someone else's statments about a player's ability wrong.....so there's really nothing to argue about.

How about you go back and address my posts #71 and #73. I never heard your opinion, and since your opinions are always right, I'd like to know if I got these questions right on my test. I await your opinions.
You don't actually expect me to comment on your posts when you ask like a smartass do you?

Shame on you Schneed. Don't you know who you're talking to here? When you ask Huddle a question, you must ask it in a certain way. You must be "nice" when you ask it. How DARE you disrespect the Almighty Huddle that way!

I. Name calling was not involved; the charge should be dismissed.

2. You most certainly can prevent further attack by demonstrating that you're willing to defend yourself.

1. Let's see. Insecure and incapable of offering logical argument? Not name calling? Technically, maybe not, but the comments were meant for the same purpose as name calling.

2. I can assure you, with respect to me, you are wrong.

Just as I figured. You've got nothing.

You're right, by taking my position on statistics, I'll never be able to prove someone else's statement about a player wrong (nor can they prove they're right).

But that wasn't what the debate was about...was it?

As to the debate on whether or not conventional football stats actually have value, your point is completely irrelevant.

I'll tell you what, you get Matty to approve our reopening of this debate, and we'll have some fun. You see, I actually have some respect for the moderators on this site........and I'm not about to apologize for that.

Hmmm, respect for others.....you taking notes yet?
