The grinds my gears thread

[brewersfan19]

Hey I am a Steelers fan!!! I don't think that I am high and mighty, it is just that all of the rest of you are beneath me.... HAHAHAHA... J/K I really love the Steelers, but I also am a realistic fan, and we will have our hands full this season.... BTW... Good luck to the Bengals this year...

Now, what grinds me is when people don't like other people's opinion, especially when it comes to music, sports, etc. When they can't be open to new ideas/thoughts of others and realize that they just might be wrong... Sports are awesome, I am even a physical education teacher, but sports have clouded reality, and send lots of bad messages...


I have given up coaching because parents have ruined it for me... They think that their child(ren) should be the star and give too much imput/opinion and aren't willing to commit to be the coach, just a pain in the ass... Sports are just like anything else in life people, if you aren't the best canidate for the job/position, get of your high horse accept the fact that someone else is better that you!!!! Truth hurts sometimes, get over it and do something about it!!!!! Pout for awhile and then give yourself an ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT!!!

BTW...... OPINIONS are just that.....OPINIONS.... There are no right/wrong answers.... They are meant to be ideas/thoughts/suggetions/topics of converstaions, THAT IS IT!!!!!!!!!

Couldn't agree more there.

Another gear grinder for me is when a couple of people start arguing, lets say over the best way to evaluate a player. One guy likes using a different set of stats from the other. They get in a big argument (not a debate, a real argument with profanity and everything) and they never realize that their argument is based solely on their opinion, and there is little to no chance of changing the other person's mind.

Amen!!!! Alleluia!!! Opinions Are Great If We All Just Remember That...

You know what really grinds my gears? People that excuse the ****ed up actions, behaviors and illegal acts by their heroes (sports or otherwise).


See:

• Barry Bonds
• Ray Lewis
• Bart Farve
• Todd Bertuzzi
• OJ Simpson
• James Brown (singer)
• Michael Jackson

**** these people and **** the people that support their sorry asses, through cheating, crime, sorry behavior and the like. Love them for things you saw them do when they played, but don't support their criminal asses!. DON'T be such an ignant homer! And THAT is what really grinds my gears.

****ing driving 45 minutes to the other side of Orlando for my first class only to find the doors locked and later to find out that the teacher was a no show. ****er.

Whoever prefers "what grinds my gears" over "what pisses me off". Take your gears and shove it up your ass.

That guy who comes over the PA at the airport rambling on about how you shouldn't leave your baggage unattended, baggage is subject to search, don't accept baggage from strangers, yadda yadda yadda... and then, when he's finally done, he repeats himself!

But that's not enough, after he's finally done, that girl comes on over the PA and says the same exact thing....and then she, too, repeats herself.

Do they really think we need to be told the same thing 4 times in a row on 15 minute intervals?
