We have four pages of discussion on Landshark Lager Beer (or whatever the name is) which has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the Dolphins in particular or FOOTBALL IN GENERAL. It remains open on the discussion board.
Yet, when one of the most significant football players in recent NFL history has been released from prison and the burning question is whether he will be let back in FOOTBALL IN GENERAL or the Dolphins in particular,.............................................
our moderators closes that thread on the grounds that "It is no longer about football and certainly not about the Dolphins, so it does not belong here."
Moderators, you have to admit that you closed the thread simply because people were getting angry at each other.
However, we are big boys, not children.
Whether Michael Vick should be allowed by the Commissioner to play again is being discussed by football fans all across the country.
Don't you think it is slightly paternalistic to close the topic here just for the sake of keeping peace on a discussion board where everyone holds hands and discusses non-controversial topics such as which beer they like or don't like?
