Jon's other site:
Screen Jam
TV and more ...
1) using profanity or any euphemisms for profanity
2) personally attacking other commenters
3) baiting other commenters
4) arguing for the sake of arguing
5) discussing politics
6) using hyperbole when something less will suffice
7) using sarcasm in a way that can be misinterpreted negatively
8) making the same point over and over again
9) typing "no-hitter" or "perfect game" to describe either in progress
10) being annoyed by the existence of this list
11) commenting under the obvious influence
12) claiming your opinion isn't allowed when it's just being disagreed with
I have gone out of my way to keep references to the war from this site - and not because I don't care about what is happening over there. I think you can understand.
I do invite you to read the many responses on Baseball Primer to the decision by Hall of Fame president Dale Petroskey to cancel a celebration of Bull Durham.
I will limit the print version of my many thoughts to this. Displaying tolerance of different opinions - displaying our humanity - can only encourage the positive treatment of the United States of America and its citizens.
