My apologies to the members of BTSC

Just want to apologize to the participants of BTSC (with the exception of mikebb) for my behavior while interacting with mikebb the other day, I have a low tolerance for his type (which has nothing to do with Football). I cannot make him behave, I can only control my own actions and I didn't do a good job of that. I will be spending a lot more time reading and a lot less time posting from now on as I do not have the patience for those types of antics. Once again, my apologies for my behavior; I'll be hanging out in the shadows. ;-) John

Just ignore those comments

Unfortunately it really gets under my skin, so I plan to just "take some time off" so to speak.

but thanks for the support John.

I behaved just as "badly"...

…as you claim you did. You don’t need to apologize; he went far over the line. Maybe calling him out wasn’t the best thing to say, but wasn’t by any means the worst thing said.

For what its worth, kudos to you for the apology.

Thanks, I have yet to master the art of having deaf ears when the trolls are loose

That is my flaw to work on, but I do appreciate the support.

don't

let the trolls and gremlins win. It is hard sometimes, but there is no reason to stop posting

Just taking a step back, I will still be posting, just not as much.

nice

Apology is big of ya. What that punk said, made me want to puke. And at least slap him upside the back of the head. So I understand.

A few people on here are best to be ignored at least when they are standing by the ledge, myself included.

mikebb tends not to understand, nor abide by, the unspoken rules of social interaction. I like to poke him a little, and see what shakes. He can be funny! But I have seen him say a few things that show him to be a heartless bastard. That’s not funny!
