At the rate we're going with some of these posts (here and at PA) I'll have to start releasing some of the idiots from my IGGY BIN. I mean, let's face it, Fischer's BS probably is no less valuable than that offered by most in here and he's, at least, been at it a bit longer.

Posting on this board is like walking through a minefield. It seems like many who post here are sitting behind their keyboard, drooling at an opportunity to jump down someone's throat. If someone writes a few paragraphs of thought, the odds are 3-5 someone quotes their whole post, bolds out a sentence and exerts some sort of "authority" because they have all this "knowledge." Maybe it's ego? Maybe it's how they get their kicks? No matter, to each his own, but how is that fun for everyone else?

I apologize for the post and I'm sorry it bumped down one of your countless, endless, nauseating complaints about this or that in the game. I made a few observations about how in my time in this game, which granted, is no where the time some people have spent, I have seen it change. If I posted how every track should have Trackus, or that every ride is bad or that Giant Oak deserves a look, would that have been better?

well said travis. back to your subject. I do believe as you that the polys throw a wrench in the whole thing when the derby is on good old dirt. example a horse like Bittel Road, maybe just a notch behind I Want Revenge and PIoneer of The Nile is nowhere in the lanes end. west side bernie looked good on dirt, also nowhere. . many of these going back and forth from the poly does make it more of a guessing game i believe

Travis, I would say I've got your back on this one but based on the amount of years Ive been associated with this game, Im probably defined as just another unexperienced idiot who doesnt know anything and has no authority. Not that anyone gives a damn about what I say on this board, I see nothing constructive about degrading people on a personal level. I think (which nobody probably cares what I think) that everyone who comments on this board is looking for a reactive stance to whatever topic is being brought up for the purpose of progressive conversation. But I could be totally wrong because I dont have a clue what I am saying. I am an idiot.

Come on Travis, You're not going to score any board cred with an attitude like that. It's the currency that drives message boredom and you need to start acquiring wealth fast.

Get into the trenches, unleash the smack, and take a dump on a hapless moron or two. You'll thank me later.

Oh yeah, and you really gotta do something about that terrible handle. Who the hell uses there actual name when they can choose up a kick ass moniker instead? Try something simple for a new handle like Balls of Stone .. slap on an avatar of something absurd like an ancient tyrant or an 80's baseball player and get in there and kick some ass.

Well said Travis

[Travis Stone]

The only problem is Travis Stone is my stage name.

[jballscalls]

his real name is Bossier City Slim.

Do have to commend Travis on his putting his name as his handle. There are already too many announcers who post with goofy handles so they can be anonymous!
