If you don't feel attacked, then how do explain characterising me as having my "panties" in a twist? Is that just how you talk normally? It's 2020... you can insult me without implying that I'm female, and hysterical...I'm sure you can.
It just seems to me you're very upset at the idea that i think Curtis Scott has played NRL footy at a high level and i believe he's has shown real NRL talent.
That's the only thing i've pushed back on. I've never once defended his level of play at the Raiders and have mostly agree with you guys about his play this year. But you just cant move past the first bit. Its a very bizarre.
This argument wouldn't be in the worse 500 arguments I've had on this site... i'm sure any number of posters would attest to that!
Frankly, i've enjoy this because its actually been pretty cordial, especially compared to 99% of my arguments here.
The only time i've taken anything said here so seriously that i felt any way about it was when an overtly racist and homophobic administrator was allowed to retain his position in a site i played a large role in creating. This kind of thing? Na, if i felt attacked by this level of discourse, i'd sent myself insane many, many, many GH arguments ago!
I do take your point and accept that criticism on the use of that idiom, I confess it's something i use quite flippantly when talking **** with people, and had never taken the time think about the fact it is rooted in some level of sexism, so i sincerely appreciate you highlighting that.
But that'll be my last post on this.
I've had my say about where i think Scott is struggling right now, what course of action we should take now and into the future, and i've spoken to what i believe at his best he could be. And im perfectly ok if every, some or no one agrees with me on those points.
