perhaps that will engender a more level-headed approach to posting.
i wonder how many temper tantrum posts i've typed, but hit the 'back' button, rather than the submit button....gets the words out of the head, without anyone having to suffer thru reading them!

people would be shocked i think...well, maybe not. i have a quick temper, but it cools pretty rapidly. i'd hate to put up something that i know five minutes later i would be embarrassed about typing--especially since it's not something i would say out loud. i try to walk away for a few minutes if someone ticks me off, so i don't put into words exactly what is in my head.

cooler heads must prevail.

I do my absolute best to remain neutral (although I often have an opinion on the 'fight of the day') so I find myself writing things out and then just hitting the back button like you said.

Hopefully everyone not following this thread will find out.

How do people updating their picks in the picks section update them with the results? Just make more posts below? I really enjoy how it's done now, for what it's worth!

I think the results should be posted in a new post. The original post with the picks should not be editd in any way.
