You must learn the difference between anger and contempt.

How's that grab ya?

[yankees228]

Contempt toward other poster(s)?

EDIT: Only asking because that seemed like an answer that begged a question ... so I was curious and obliged. Such is the result of boring afternoons.

[Emmz]

The ones I don't much care for.

[yankees228]

Ah I see.

I can absolutely guarantee that if you conducted a poll of hockey fans old enough to have seen them both, Orr would beat Gretzky by a wide margin. I would predict that the top 3 would look like this:

1. Orr
2. Howe
3. Gretzky

This is not a diss on Gretzky by any means. He was undoubtedly the greatest point-producing machine that will ever exist, a mastermind of getting the puck in the net.

Right, the reason Orr beats Gretzky is because Orr was the more complete player. It's no secret that defense wasn't exactly Gretzky's thing. He didn't ignore it exactly but, well, it's kind of like Marc Savard on defense. OK, yeah, sure, I can get that done, but that's not why I'm on the ice. As a defenseman, even a highly mobile, offensive minded one, Orr couldn't do that.

Or I could just let Don Cherry and some nice Bobby Orr clips make my point for me.

Since I consider hockey the most athletic of the major sports, and Orr was the best all-time hockey player ever, I consider Orr a very, very good candidate for the most athletic all-time athlete.

How's that?

Edit: Anyways, doc, as much as I appreciate the amateur pathology diagnosis, I have to say that you're way way off. Not that giving psycho-analysis based on text isn't completely laughable or anything.

Ps: Let's try figuring out the difference between anger and contempt before throwing out new terms above our heads, shall we?

Hold it, you know, your short and irritating posting style reminds me of someone who's been here before.

Edit: Gotcha. def SemperFi Sox. And someone else, too.

Jeez....will you stop living in the past? The people who hated you then are gone and it is whole new batch of people now that find you annoying.

If that helps you cope with me running you off the site, and making you look pretty stupid on multiple occasions, then congratulations on your moral vic.

As to people finding me annoying, I'd be offended if that held any merit. Most people speak positively of me and realize that I'm opinionated and make some good points. If anything, you're the delusional broad with a chip on her shoulder.

[ibot2much]

Delusional much?? You never ran me off the site, but I was here when they banned you for your mouth about a year ago....something you have never recovered from.
