before using that chart. In the meantime,

making homoerotic aspersions about gary danielson constitutes misogyny on our part. but whatever.

if you really feel roll bama roll is particularly sexist in terms of it’s posts or commentary… i have to conclude you’ve not spent much time reading many sports websites. in fact, i’ll offer our coverage of the alabama softball team and the commentary it prompted as a counter-example to your claims.

because while we have little compunction at urging people to point their browser elsewhere – keep in mind how much you pay for the privilege of reading our work and participating in the site to the degree you are able – that’s not at all saying we don’t care about the input of our readership.

we actually care quite a bit about how our posts and comments are perceived and i think the overall quality of the content you find provided here is a sufficient testament to that. it’s not something we necessarily need anyone to express appreciation for (although many do with regularity and bless ’em for it).

what we don’t have much truck with is being criticized and talked down to for our behavior simply because someone dislikes our tone or the manner we conduct ourselves. we welcome criticism, but we have little patience for being patronized.

moreover, making a public post rather than a direct contact to express these misgivings reflects rather badly on you. (we all have made our emails available for use in matters such as this and i happen to know you have todd’s already)

lastly, my response above was meant as a reasonable response to your initial allegation. the casual manner you brush it aside makes it clear you’ve decided to be unreasonable in terms of discussing the matter – not me. the common description of this kind of behavior is known as “showing your ass.”

A blog is just that, a blog. It’s not intended to be a formal news organization or anything that is policed as such a thing would be. A blog is generally a person(s) opinions, ideas, thoughts, etc. on a topic that interest him/her. With reading a blog comes the notion that at times you are probably not going to agree with the author or everything they say or do. The beauty of this, however, is that’s okay. As we’ve all seen the internet has brought a huge of revival of freedom of speech. Some see this as a good thing, others do not. Either way the point is that blogs were never intended to appeal to the masses and they often carry a very niche theme. If you like the tone and theme of a blog, read it. If you don’t, don’t read it. It is really that simple.

And for the record, the whole argument of “watch your language there are women on this site” really offends me as a woman to an extreme. I do not feel that anything should have to be censored to me just because I am a “woman”. I am sure there are things I’ve said before that have been offensive to some men. Language should not have a gender barrier; it’s a matter of personal preference.

Now, aren’t we here to laugh at all the poor saps that lost this weekend?

And you couldn’t stay away for more than 18 hours? Color me shocked.

Complain all you want, but we’re obviously doing something right here at RBR if you cannot even stay away for more than a day when you get in your typical tizzy.

The fact that you have probably now read the comments I found offensive that I sent by email(I did not think it appropriate to copy them here), and yet still take the stand that it was ok, is very disappointing. I had thought better of you.

Have you tried the self-help section?
