UCLA vs Texas - 3/23/18

Do not insult the young women - of ANY TEAM - on a personal basis. I’m talking about making jokes about their intelligence, looks, etc. Reserve your criticism for their basketball play.

I have a hard time letting ignorant posts stand with no counter. It's a weakness.

Try using some facts, not insults, to counter inaccuracies.

Is someone going to start a thread telling us how the Pac 12 is underrated?

I was responding to someone who simply stated that MSU was 35-1 against a bunch of nobodies. I've addressed MSU's schedule strength elsewhere here and did not think such a flippant insult to their record deserved another rehashing. I honestly felt it was an ignorant statement and called it such. If that's unacceptable I won't do it again.

Not everyone reads every thread. If you’re bound and determined to address all perceived insults, be prepared to defend the team without insults

So it's ok to type a clearly incorrect statement like "versus a bunch of nobodies" with no support and clearly insulting both my team and all their opponents but calling that stupid is out of bounds? I should spend two paragraphs defending MSU's schedule against someone who can't be bothered to look at it before calling everyone on it a nobody?

It might help to keep the data on hand so you can just copy-paste to give timely refutation to uninformed detractors.

I could start with MSU is 4-1 vs teams playing today with the 4 wins all by double digits.

That is a good idea, btw. Thanks.
