Oregon State pbp/discussion

And I'm sorry to even interject but the irony of you of all people complaining about a political post was just too much to ignore. 83% of the posters on here probably had the same thought if they are being honest with themselves. At least you are now in agreement that this isn't the place for those posts.
I’ve always been in agreement with that sentiment. And have always wished someone would step up and clean this place up. That’s all I wanted. And I was hoping that new mods would recognize the subtle political jabs MSU has been posting the last few months for what they are. No luck in that, apparently. But I don’t hear you complaining about the current posting I’m referencing, so there’s that…..

Btw, you of all people not understanding what I just laid out above, doesn’t surprise me.
 
I actually debated not even using his name, but, for many, the context, scope and any humor almost certainly would be lost.

To be clear, it is 100% possible to be in no way political and actually use a politician’s name or even an ongoing joke associated with one. Equating a nationwide joke to one guy’s opinion of an Iowa wrestling coach is pretty much the entire point…
I don't disagree at all, I just also see the view of "why mention the name at all"

I have nothing but love and respect for Tarp, but I think his version of "TDS" has become a permanent ailment and the only way to heal him would be Tom retiring or being replaced...

TDS= Trump Tom Derangement Syndrome

@IAChief32 would you please get rid of MSU’s political crap above? I’m really getting tired of seeing him post political shite, but you guys don’t seem to do anything about it.

Sorry man...been watching the Chiefs trying their damndest to get me on blood pressure meds. Ok...here is the ruling El Dub: This wasn't a political post. He even crossed out the political candidate's <ahem> name and made it about wrestling. The post was about Tarp's budding dislike for Tom as a coach which he has been kinda shy about up until now.
 
Just because the original usage started with Trump, doesn’t make my changing it to apply to Tarp’s feelings towards Tom political in any way.

I wasn’t arguing for or against the dude in ANY way. It was simply a play on words to make a fricking joke. Only those with their underwear incredibly wedged into their nether regions would see it any other way.
I thought it was a clever use of TDS dude 😉
 
@TarpHawk

Any feedback? You are really the one it was intended for. I was hoping you would take it as the joke it was meant to be and maybe even give me a quick guffaw. Was I off base? I do actually respect your opinion enough to take your response to heart. If you do think it was too over the top, I will happily apologize...

How does the PbP thread get turned into this? Come on MSU158, help us out. Please

Sorry, man. I took some heat here with what I truly meant to be a simple joke. I simply figured I would go to the source and see if he thought it was misplaced or inappropriate. If he did, I was openly offering my mea culpa.

I will happily bow out from here, but I am truly interested in what Tarp has to say, if, of course, he even wants to respond...

I think it was a well played joke - most "jokes" have the potential to offend and that is why they can be funny.

I don't want to add anything more to this thread, LOL. Peace to all :)
 
Again... enough beating this complete dead horse already.
