Every night in the baseball forum(I imagine the same will go on in the basketball and football rooms once the season starts) posters freak out over losses or specific players that ''screwed them over''

These threads end up in the rubberroom. Why not just make a rule that there's no whining about losses and/or players?

I have on the rare occasion made a comment about some loss by a team, once in a blue moon, but it seems as if it's the same posters night in and night out crying and uttering words of profanity after or even during losses. It's absurd and annoying.

Comments like, ''it's a loss, we have no chance, it's over'' or the Yankees suck(even though they might have won 8 out of 10 and covering runlines the whole way'' are idiotic.

These same posters will be flooding the NFL and/or Basketball rooms soon. Again, it's mostly the same posters complaining about a loss when it's only the 4th inning or trash talking players, even really good players because they didn't hit a 3 run homer to win them their runline bet so therefore aren't earning their millions, etc etc.

How much are y'all betting on these games because some of you act like your lives depend on the outcomes? Geeez yo.

Okay, that's my rant. I know nothing will change and the internet is a place to vent(as I'm doing now) and it's a free country so whatever..I'm just killing time before Big Brother starts...which by the way sucks this year..but that's another rant...

Wouldn't this be an example of whining?

Also, who are the very good players? Can you provide me a list of players that you would consider very good.

Sorry, I am just messing with you. I actually agree with a lot of what you are saying.

actually, there's couple of posters who regularly start in game threads who i like to fade because it seems like they always lose.

i'll bash a tout from the service play thread all day long, but i do think rxers who share their plays shouldn't be cussed out, unless maybe they tout themselves as the greatest thing since the bud light 15 pack, 16 ounce aluminum bottles....part of the fun of gambling are the ups and downs....if i had a dime for every poster who thought their miami loss was a loser, it would offset my loss from being on fsu....

Well if you can't beat em, join em? No, this thread is basically pointless. I'm just mildly annoyed by some of the whiners and complainers who never give it a rest so I started complaining about it.
