Message: [QUOTE="UCfor3, post: 3109996, member: 567"] It's all in the nuance of the opinion and how you state it. It's one thing to say "I think this coach, while he has been pretty successful, is a little overrated in my opnion and here's why." It's another thing when someone says the national player of the year is mostly just an athlete and isn't all that great a basketball player despite all evidence to the contrary. The first thing usually and hopefully prompts a discussion. The second thing prompts a reaction, which is probably what it was designed for. We could all probably be a little less dismissive of others somewhat benign opinions that we might not agree with but over the top outrageous opinions usually provoke equally outrageous reactions.
