I agree. It's too much politics on this board. And politics is the last I want to discuss in a world that become mad and insane. Football is w kind of escape area - at least for 4 month per year - for me. So I would like to see a clear separation between football and non-football related stuff. Maybe just do not put everything under category "discussion. Just an idea.... I just don’t see any requirements forcing anyone to discuss politics. So I don’t understand why one would complain. Before internet you had newspapers and no one forced me to read articles I wasn’t interested in. Yet I was never gonna get the paper to eliminate those articles. Its not a big deal. Don’t like it don’t open it. If a person is engaged in football topics only then they would never have any reason to care about other topics. This is how I see it as well; seems simple to me! I am new to this board, but I have been scolded by Canthony for busting on the fudge packer that lurks chops. I can leave him alone, besides being a belly crawling fudge smear as all puker fans are he isn't too bad,and for the most part I do, but if he comes around breaking rules #3 and #4 again I will surely risk another scolding. I am just a miserable prick you see.

Become a Mod and see all the complaints about people getting their panties in a bunch. Then go back and call the person they just complained about something even worse. It does get tiresome real quick I was a mod for many years on the original PT. I did get tired of it and quit. That's an option, you know. It is. PT was notorious for having Mods who simply liked their version of appropriate slander and the control of discussions within those lanes. The overt power lust in doing so brought that board down. Moderating is a tough gig, but once the moderator forgets the main duty and starts to force their own agenda, you just have a lynch board filled with hate and vitriol that mirrors that accordingly. Politics and Religion discussions wil and always have made people goofy. PT became the Richards on Main quickly, the Pullman Club of Vikings Talk.

I like the ability on the other hand to talk some about other things then football. And if you choose not to engage that is the great thing. Right now I have 3 sites I enjoy. Proudhorns "Viking Armageddon (best pure football talk and most of the "PT" bunch is there, This site good football talk and other things, and Vikefans.com again a few other from back in the SI board days. Key is you can ignore what you do not want to read. Vikings Armageddon is great if you enjoy 5467900 posts on switches, 4000 really bad Adrian Peterson - camel and baby momma bashing jokes and especially enjoying discussions on how Adrian Peterson is the most vile human being on the planet that has never lived a seconds worth of meaningful life - then yeah, it’s great. Just don’t ever give Peterson credit or else. Proud was so Proud of that stance that he banned 10+ years posters on a tantrum over a Peterson and bad Oline post on purple Thoughts of all things. Perma banned a handful of Peterson supporters then retire as a mod, just to be a dick. I don’t know Proud, but a person who can get themselves to hate a person or Vikings player that completely and thoroughly should be doing anything but moderating people or especially the discussions of Vikings players. He should seek help to get over it. You’d think Peterson stole his wife then dated his daughter or something. Purple Thoughts became the inmate running the asylum towards the end. Proud’s ego is apparently ginormous and he hates, with a passion, Adrian Peterson and he also hates any poster that isn’t on board with that. Many of us weren’t. It’s too bad too, because he split up quite a few of us with those purposely divisive moderating antics. Hell, doesn’t his board have an image of Adrian Peterson burning on a cross or something sick like that?
