Once my daughter became a college athlete I changed my attitude about these bulletin boards just a bit.  One day she looked over my shoulder to see something I was posting about the performance of the players, and she asked whether I would appreciate amateur armchair analysts posting negative things about her.  Made me think just a little bit about how I phrase things, trying to make posts more analytical and less emotional, refraining from negative criticism without it being constructive in some way.  Yes, I know that is very atypical of these boards, but the Cardboard has never been typical.  The day the Cardboard become "typical" will be the day I stop coming here.

Where's the +1 when a post deserves it?
