I know the two of you have clashed many times but that's a bit harsh IMO. This would be a very dry and boring board if we were all restricted like this. Maybe some of us go a bit too far but if so, I suspect I'd top that list.
I can understand that and would agree in the case of every other poster here but BC is the one who immediately cries someone is getting
personal with him whenever there is the slightest disagreement. Perhaps if he didn't post here like it was his personal journal then he wouldn't need to fear others are getting personal with him. He often makes posts like the one I quoted that derail a thread entirely rather than add some flavor or a personal touch to something that has to do with the Suns or NBA basketball.
In regards to politics specifically, I think those discussions should stick to their specific forums because it never seems to end well. I know it doesn't end well there either but at least those of us who don't wish to compare Ayton's suspension to the Trump admin's effects on the country don't see it and aren't told we're personally attacking him for asking him to take it to the appropriate forum.
I don't mind talking politics when they're directly related to the sport I'm following or discussing, like with how the players boycotted last week, but I don't want to be thinking of politics while discussing sports as a break from the political overload you get all over social media and virtually every station on TV. There's a time and a place, is what I'm saying.
