The imfamous "team ****"

GSPALLTHEWAY · 08-22-2007, 04:34 PM

lol ugh.... you guys are losing it out there in FF land.... first off, ive NEVER even addressed irish mike, he has no business calling me out over the internet totally out of the blue.... in fact while i joke around (as do other members) myself and them understand the line between that and being directly rude without being prevoked at all...
everyone stay calm and chill out with the insult on the remaining members....

my final take is while personally im in the minority of not liking the ** members (not ALL, some were very cool) and while they did have a good understanding of MMA and did provide good posts, they had no business doing what they were doing (if you dont know yet read the mods posts) as a result, its an easy decision from the powers that be and they are gone... they crossed the line, end of story, dont let other members go down in flames over something that was justly done

It's a shame to see people being banned for minor infractions such as in Mike's case, I hope it was only a temp ban. I'll continue to play it safe and keep quiet on this matter even though I have an opinion.

i remember wayyyy back there were ways to see what the infraction and post was for banned members along with the penalties... anyway to still do that??
snow patrol you have been quiet in general (aside from this for awhile) get back in the mix, your posts are fun to read and i envy your points\cash :sport-smi

You shouldnt have to play it safe. If you have an opinion, you should be able to share it without fear.

I am scared people are going to quit posting what they think because of fear of either getting in trouble or getting flamed by other members.

About a week after the next UFC event. On Fightnight and the week after, we will have to ban lots of guys again for bashing members and fighters. Always happens, and I blame the UFC. Stuff like that does not happen when boxing matches are around the corner ... boxing fans are way more cool.

Things will be happy once we have something to talk about (i.e. UFC 74)! 3 days baby!

IMO Gsp, you might need to cool it down a little bit, you've been coming off a bit arrogant as of late with all the "I called it, I knew team **** was bs" and all this negative talk of members, I'm sure he seen one of your posts on the subject and that's why he felt the need to stand up for himself. Please don't take this as an insult on yourself, it's not. I would just really like to see all of this cool off and I think comments such as those may only be fueling the fire.

i respect your comment kent and dont take offense..

i see what your saying and will take that in.... as of late im just sick of hearing about it myself, however at the time it was something that i knew was going to happen all along... (regardless at this point id rather keep good members then "add fuel to the fire")

jm1010 · 08-22-2007, 04:57 PM

Edit: Sorry Kent i didnt see your post.

He had an opinion and he was simply expressing it.

Edit: Sorry Kent i didnt see your post. I pretty much said the same thing as you.

dont be condescending to me.... you are posting in these just as much as i am, trying to seem impartial when in fact your not at all.... kent made the post, made his point, i awknowledged it and said id cool it... dont edit and say you said the same... edit and delete it so you dont piss me off, be rude, and make me post thing in response... give it a rest....

Easy man. I am not talking about your comments in this thread. I am talking about your threads and what not. If you want it deleted thats fine I dont care. If you read my edit you will see that I stated that I did not see his post. By the way, how was I condescending at all?

Mike said he was stepping down so closing his account is what we do. Ask and you receive. Mike was a good poster, but so is this:

Find a more core film--I dare you. :sport-smi

I can respect the ones who decided not to come back, I can even respect the ones who get banned for the team. But the ones who are still here are ass suckers.

since there are no more teams i think all remaining members of FF should focus on ufc 74, boxing, or training threads and do what they can to contribuate to FF from now on regardless of what they were a part of etc etc....

How boring is that? Don't you think the constant drama is way more cool?

i know your a boxing guy, but i think the extra time off between the UFC shows have fried some peoples brains to the point where they would answer yes!

Bull · 08-22-2007, 06:19 PM

FF should be a boxing-only forum again. LOL

Everybody knows UFC sucks!

*waits for verbal abuse*

Calm down, it's fun.
