Why do you like to argue about sports on the internet?
 

I can't honestly answer this question for myself.

I don't. I'm here for the ladies.

I can't anywhere else.

No offense to the rest of them, but your wife is probably the hottest female poster here.

Because I make a difference

This all sounds too clinical and psychiatric, its a trap.

That's very kind. She's getting up there in years. It's almost time to trade her in.

It gets me as hard as a diamond in an ice storm.

I think its so u dont have to agree with ppl. Usually when someone says something stupid IRL u dont say anything back and be polite

I'm nicer on here than I am in real life. IRL sometimes I blurt stuff out but it takes more time and effort to type than to speak.

That's the problem with the internet. It actually is "IRL" unless you're buried deeply anonymous. You would think you would have learned that by now and I'm not even talking about the lesson CP taught you. I'm talking about the lesson The Pitch taught you.

In a way. eg. IRL if you insult someone there could be consequences, on the internet what happens? I mean, im not saying its anonymous but its not real life like talking to someone in person is

Because i like it so i can vent.

That's not what I mean at all. I'm saying that things you say on the internet can and do affect things that happen IRL. All the time. Ask Billay if he agrees.

On the internet you can say what you always wanted to say and not get your eye dotted.

I guess if you live close to the people youre talking to, yea.

In some instances, yes. But Billay could have done what he did to me from anywhere on the globe.

what did Billay do?

Don't really want to rehash it tonight but he affected me IRL by saying things on the internet. Plenty of people have had IRL circumstances based on shit said on the internet. That's the problem with thinking there's a difference between the internet and IRL. Every single person posting here is IRL on their end of the computer and you are IRL on your end.

And people have the ****ing gall to wonder why I was upset, yet continued to call ME names for months after I left and continue to this day.

I consider some people here real life friends that I have never met. I'd love to meet them and hang out with them hope to tailgate with them at Chiefs games. If they are cool with me I am cool with them I don't need to argue, but I am quick to defend Chiefs Planet from trolls such as Black Bob. I make Chiefs Planet an every day part of my life as much as I can as I love Chiefs Planet & it has enhanced my Chiefs love afair IRL. Even with out Chiefs Planet I'd be freaking out about the state of the Chiefs and proby would have broken another TV if I didn't have this outlet & be amongst folks with the same feelings.

I've had arguements from Chiefs fans I know that liked Matt Cassell a couple years ago & I'd have to walk away & under my breath wish them to die in aids fire. I wonder what they think of Matty Cassell now?

I don't see it as arguing. I see it as educating clueless people. I'm a giver.

Because R8ers is a douchebag.

LMAO

doh

**** you. That's why.

No. **** YOU. **** you very much.

I don't, really. I'm here for the poop threads.

Funny it took you 10+ years to acually get a clue from everyone here...

But if you can make it this far there are hope for others...

I used to enter into football discussions a lot here. Now I mostly read the news and become even more disgusted. But when I used to, it was pretty much how I'd discuss sports IRL. For the most part I stayed away from the flaming AIDS tree stuff.

With owning and running a international company, Flying, my sons football, soccer, golf and my wife of 21 years I rarely have time to socialize with buddies.

So this is my place to grab a cold beer in the evening and chat with guys about football... I know some of you guys personally and have become extended family of the Buehlers_445's. CP is a great place to hang with a bunch of lifetards and chat sports...

did you finish smoking the turkey?

**** you.

**** you.

**** you.

I get more insightful commentary on here than I can find elsewhere. Also, the sports news here is typically focused on what I'm interested in. The people here typically think like I do (as scary as that is). Have you ever looked at an ESPN message board or talked sports with people in real life? Most of the people are really uninformed, naive, or just plain stupid.

**** you.

Forgot to thaw the turkey didn't you.

Let me guess, liqour store is closed today?

Kills time.

go eat a bug

Why not asshole? :D

where else am i going to befriend a san diego charger fan?

I think the level of football discussion to maturity level on this forum is right where it needs to be for me to get the most out of the discussions. It is nice to hang out in a place where ever now and then you can call someone a sister ****ing **** nugget and be cool with them 3 posts later in another thread.

I've learned a lot about football on here and it has come because of people challenging my line of thinking and forcing me to see it from a different perspective. CP rocks.

Ask GoChiefs

I did. Hopefully it turned out OK

It gives you a bigger group of people than you get to argue it with in real life. With that you get more deas, controversy etc etc. You all know how it is.

The best part is you get to turn them off if you are tired/bored/agitated .

Not to mention the internet has some of the biggest idiots this world has to offer. It's always fun to see what they have to say.

I don't. But I do enjoy reading the arguments of others from time to time.

Because not enough people in this world fist their grandmothers

I was sentences to 8 years over an argument about Raiders. I can't do 8 years for shooting my computer and catching it on fire.

Fair nuff.

LMAO

Im way less opinionated IRL. The main thing I see on CP compared to IRL is so many ppl really are pleased with themselves by calling ppl names. U wont really ever hear that IRL. Ive never really been one to name name call just because I disagree w someone. Just seems childish to me...you can disagree with a person respectfully except on the internets

You must have me mistaken for someone else. I dunno what u mean but ya I do agree that if u are a big enough troll you will get outed like midnight vulture

Disregard. I realize my error now. Sorry, I was confused.

It's safer than arguing about sports in bars. I've never gotten punched on the internet.

The Internet is happy with joy.

You help people "get a clue"... that's so thoughtful.

Haha great thread topic.

I ask myself that all the time.

I really don't like to argue sports on the internet... or anything else for that matter. I'd rather share opinions, input and ideas. As it is many people want to argue and I've been drawn into it... and I'm not proud of that.

cause I can't constantly masturbate to porn

Because you get such a wide range of opinion from so many different types of people because the internet is world wide.

Opposed to the locals whom which you all may have very close opinions growing up in the same area/traditions and such.

And I don't automatically argue btw. The title should have been worded discuss.

Yes you can. Look up Rachel Starr.

Because the guy on the 10:00 news told me to.

He gives me secret messages, you know. You guys just can't decode them.

You can "see", too?!
