I don't think that this was meant to be offensive, though I can see how someone might get a bit upset at how it was written. Really though I don't think it's anything to get worked up about, this is just a game, and little write ups like these help make this game more fun. If you don't like them, don't read them, simple as that.

Well lets break down the post to see how it may have been construed as offensive by your opponent.

"Last nights game was a relativly easy one".

"it showed on the field as the Rhino's steamrolled the Nighthawks never allowing them to get any where near the game"

"The 73 point margin is the biggest win in the franchises short history"

Yeah... saying that your opponent was easy to beat where they can see it (though it might have been true) does not instill any kind of camaraderie or friendship with the opponent. Saying that you "steamrolled" the Nighthawks and that it was the Rhino's biggest win ever, all against a 2-13 team by the way in a public forum, shows the insecurity you feel toward the Rhino team. This is similar to kicking someone while they're laying on the ground. No one likes being reminded about their flaws and failures. You're post can easily be seen as "rubbing it in". You may have not have intended your post to be construed this way but that is how it comes across.

Close games should be documented or commentated upon but if you must do so with a blow out game, it is best left to your team's private forum.

writeups, power rankings, east vs west, all helps pass the time until game days

Yeah right. This entire thing is offensive.


This is bordering on insane. Does any IMPARTIAL party think this article was an intentional slight on the Nighthawks? I know cheese through our team forum and I can say with certainty that he did not intend for this article to be taken that way. Nobody from the Rhinos is talking shit, nor have we ever to my knowledge. And the team that "kicked our ass" 16-13 were the ones who were doing all the shit-talking prior to our matchup. Just go back and read the threads and you'll see this. If you can't see this then you're just delusional.

On a side note, and to the credit of the Austin guys, they handled their win over us with the utmost class. It was the talk leading up to the game that was annoying. I think they were just feeling a little slighted because we were getting all of the attention.

But back to you guys...get back on your medication and please lay off the offensive posts. There's no way you're as stupid as these posts make you appear to be. Grow up. It's just a game.


You're right, Grow up it's just a game. I really hope the rhinos are one of the classless teams that are moved up out of our conference we're better off with out them. The only thing stupid here is that people can't understand what's offensive about the article.

Thank you. That's EXACTLY how every member of our team that read it, took it.

It's not that you wrote an article on the game it's the tact in which you did so.

I have no problem admitting the NJ Nighthawks aren't good. Flat out disrespecting fellow teams in your conference when it really isn't necessary, is something you should keep in the privacy of your own forum. Not something you should try to display as "public humiliation"

yes, but I was talking about the playoffs. we lost to the rhinos fairly early in the season. The free ballers would love to have round 2.

Believe me, I CAN be offensive, But i'm not being so. This entire thread is offensive.

The Rhinos are just trying to compensate for small d***s

so what you are saying is that the rhinos owner didnt boost any of his 30 players. Got ya. They should be a tough team to beat in the playoffs I guess.
