The rules here are fairly simple. Act like a reasonably responsible adult, be capable of discussing and/or debating matters of opinion in a professional manner and respect other posters as you would want to be respected by them. Act as if this is a forum available to you at NO cost, maintained through the hard work and dedication of people you've most likely never met, with cash that does not come out of your pocket.

Finally, remind yourself that none of us are currently being shot at in a routine manner or deployed to areas of the world with temperatures of 110 degrees. None of us are being taken away from our loved ones for long period of time, made homeless, or are so poor that we cannot afford food, let alone electricity and the internet. None of us are being dragged out of our homes and/or being imprisoned for having a different opinion. We're all pretty fortunate in our own way, living and posting in one of the greatest countries in the world. It's the internet, it's not life or death. We're here to have fun, unwind, commiserate, and most importantly, plan for the upcoming New York Jets Super Bowl victory.

Being a fan of the NY Jets can be hard enough....having to deal with self-inflicted drama can make it unbearable.
