does NJ get Jets and Giants titles and not NY cause they play in NJ?
- 2Real

I don't know. It's so confusing. Ask matchett, he knows the new rules.

There is no such city as Tampa Bay. That was the point.

I mean, if we're going to get stupid about names, let's really blow it out.

NY Giants? F'n liars.

Minnesota Vikings? Bullpoop.

Washington Redskins? Not in the state of Washington.

Ah, gotcha. Well then, if there is no TB, I guess that they can be celebrated by everyone in Tampa and greater Tampa region (unless they play on the shores of the bay). As for the Gianta, and Vikings, at least they claim a home city of the team name (where do the Vikings play). As for the Redskins, I guess the Flyers are liars since they don't play in Philadelphia State.

Those titles belong to the George W. Bridge and waste plants.

It should be the Washington D.C. Redskins then. Let's be accurate or it's a farce. Think of the children!

Do you live in the greater Pittsburgh area? Are you a fan of a team that both claims and plays in Pittsburgh? How about the same, but with Philadelphia.

There was another poster who got banned that night, a good guy. He doesn't get mentioned much, but I hope he returns.

It wasn't a great night for anyone involved, because of the length of the bans. Hopefully we all learned something from it, those of us who were there.

Redskins is inappropriate.

I hope you just threw up in your mouth a little.

Even as a joke, it was difficult to write

haha, fair enough.

For the record, I'm not "Up in arms" about it. I don't blow a gasket and beat the crap out of my cat everytime they're associated with Boston. It's just incorrect is all, and I was stating that a Patriots Super Bowl is a greater NE area title, and they they neither claim in their name nor play in Boston. Everyone else took super offense to that claim.

Seriously, would you come back to a site that banned you for months?

What a hilarious concept!

We lost a lost of good men back then. I get choked up every time I think of it.

Cats are sneaky and deserve a good beating every now and then even if you're not sure what for.

Well...hockey's a sport where I always thought fanbases, though they fight, still kinda band together, share the ups and downs of rooting for a Cup winner, because they're so hard to win.

It's just sports, you know? I'd like to think that even when we disagree strongly, there's still room to remember that we all root for the same team.

it happens constantly on this site. either they change handles or wait out the ban.

I've never been banned but I've had posts deleted. I've said some pretty bad stuff and never got a warning. I think I'm fortunate.

Yup, I've heard that.

So do those bigger slobbery cats who hump your leg, piss on the carpet, make you get up and/or go outside at 3 AM in February, track paw prints through your house, knock stuff over, and eat their own excrement.

Let us bow our heads for a moment of silence.

- PhillySportsGuy

Ha! Nope -- I was there, and I had an exchange or two with some folks that night, but I had backed down before it got to the point of banning.

Yup, I've heard that.

Washington DC Native American Savages.

Although they're technically native Asians who crossed an ancient land bridge, but now we're splitting hairs.
