major is a stretch.

Just glad that PonyFans is free of some prize muppets and we can get back to unfettered panic regarding the state of basketball at our beloved hilltop.

Funny in a not so funny way. Family disagreements are so complicated.

On a happier note, go riddance to bickle/Callahan/east Texas or whatever name he chose to go by.

Why good rid of Bickle?..if you didn't like him..if he bugged you, don't read his [deleted] and certainly don't feed his [deleted]...pf.com is comical.

Other than being a generally annoying what finally got him the boot!

He was like a computer virus. Very hard to ignore someone like that. This is not a publicly run forum so it is a privilege to come here and discuss SMU athletics. If your purpose is to antagonize the fan base you do not belong here. He is free to support Doherty, not to antagonize the fan base. Heck, anyone that reads these threads knows that I am a staunch Doherty supporter. That said, you would have to be an idiot not to realize that this season has been a complete disaster. Short of winning out, I don't see how Doherty is retained. Make your case, but once you see that no one is responding positively let it go and move on. As they say, watch out when you are driving on a street and it's not just one car going the wrong way, but thousands lol!

Finally we have some peace with mutual friends sharing idea's and we all don't agree at all times, but at least it's somewhat civil. Those two or tree posters were over the top rude and disrespectful, and I couldn't stand coming on here. Thank heaven they are...... 'outta here'.

A person was banned on KF.com for posting a picture of smoking hippies in a field and calling it a "TCU team meeting", Bickle attacked every single poster and resorted to copy/paste tirades on every single thread, not an exaggeration. Get off your high-horse. Bickle was saying nothing productive, coherent and was just generally being a pest. He's probably one of you guys.

That was an incredible summary. Bravo, sir.

PF is run in a manner which attempts to ensure high standards. There are people who operate the site expending considerable time and effort to bring us quality information about our athletics program. This is a resource, it's not out own private playground, and we are held to a standard. No one in my experience has ever been banned for their opinion, but all the recent banned posters were warned that their attitude needed to change. They had their chance.

Personally, I much prefer it, but mostly I recognize that if I put as much time and effort into this as the mods do, I would want to ensure people wouldn't empty their bowels on it either.

You obviously never read his posts. You are free to start another board with him. That would be some quality analysis.

Yeah!

Give me a break with the higher standard. This is a message board!

by **ponyscott** » Sat Feb 18, 2012 12:50 pm

If it was a 'higher standard'....we ALL wouldn't be on here posting our lower standard views....lol

I always love Robin Williams quote:...."I was violating my standards faster than I could lower them!"

I wonder how Mustangsabu knew that all the recently banned posters had been warned.
