  1. Maybe we should send him backpacking in Thailand? Discover himself...
  2. Sprinters always peek early and get injury problems later on, usually with their knees and hamstrings. Wiltshire's injury was as much to do with his lifestyle as anything else, he has been a bit of a troubled boy. I think he will develop a lot better than the sprinter types with age.
  3. Sounds good but I find the name offensive, any way you could change it?
  4. Every week, yes - 3 times a week no. I would want him developed but cared for, like a little beautiful flower on a hill side.
  5. I am very out of the loop when it comes to games. Are there any games in the sale similar to Age of Empires?
  6. It doesn't always work out like that, Ryan Giggs and Beckham played from an early age and pretty regularly by man utd but Joe Cole was developed slowly by West Ham to protect him. I would say cole is pretty near the scrap heap at a much younger age than the other 2. I think a lot of factors come into play.
  7. Watched a good doc on the Vikings last night. Interesting part about Kind Canute. Apparently, his grandfather Eric Blue Tooth moved his kingdom to Christianity and carried out mass genocide to anyone who did not/would not switch. If you look through history, it is loaded with similar stories. Christianity really took off when kings found how useful ruling by divine right was. Now they didn't have to worry so much about someone bigger and hairier coming along, killing them and taking their crown because if someone did so that, it would be against the will of god and they would burn in hell for their sins. That's why you will find a church in every town or village in Europe, to spread the word. Churches were cheaper and more loyal than armies.
  8. Billy speaks for me...
  9. Thought you didn't play it as you were a busy bear? You been sneaking games in between chapters?
  10. What tactic did you use?
  11. Egg, you twist the subject and my words to suit you, therefore there is not point in discussing it. Where have I ever said it was ok to use those words to insult disabled people? Yet you write: You say I threw in the towel but you put: I simply agreed to knock it on the head if you were. You say: But then say I have gone off subject when I do. You talk about always erring on the side of caution if there is a danger of offending someone, however called Scottish people sweaties, mock those on council estates with 'their fat birds and grey skin', you talk about mental people, the list goes on. I have never advocated using or not using these words, just the right to question if these are still offensive when used in a completely different context and are they any more offensive then many other words commonly used on this forum i.e. mental, dumb, gay, bearsy etc You say you are not pointing the finger but then tell me to fill my boots. The only person that has been shown to use any of these words and an insult is stain but you choose to ignore his comment and enjoy his support. Also, speaking more frankly sounds threatening to me, was it meant that way? If so, fine. Come and speak as frankly as you want to me on Saturday, I'll be here: Price 1. Southampton v Sunderland adult Northam Stand Main 43 O 1128
  12. All of the other stuff, media, team meeting etc are ok as long as you can switch them off - i.e. get your assistant to do it. There is too much detail but I can understand why some will want all that detail so being able to turn stuff on an off is fine with me. The biggest problem is the new match engine, it just doesn't seem to work, not in a fun way anyway. One minute you beat Chelsea 4 -0 away, the next you lose 4-0 at home to Reading. You might be able to see what the difference is if you watch the full 90min game but who wants to do that? The graphic 'improvements' are also worse, goal keepers diving to save the ball with their feet, people running like crabs - it's all very strange.
  13. I am a big fan but the game is sh!t this year. MLG may try and defend it but even on their forums it is pretty widely hailed as a failure.
  14. Oh, sorry dude, when you said Steve I thought you meant I. Didn't read it properly. No, seriously this iphone lark (read previous sad laptop news) is no fun, makes my writing and spelling even worser (;0) than usual. Also, I am currently arguing with an angry lawyer who keeps changing the subject to suit him. I am not good with names though, I thought you meant Dan (sisters boyfriend) was actually gay in real life as well as in the show. Btw - how are your pilates coming on? Still going to the 'class' 4 time a week?
  15. Oh you've caught me out! That's it then, now you've caught me out, you're right about everything and we must do what you say. One final request, as you have been giving me loads to do, " do this, do that, find me a disabled person who has a sense of humour and doesn't mind the word spaz as long as its not being used as an insult (thank god for google eh?) I want you to do something. Firstly go on to a Celtic or rangers forum, call them sweaties and see the reaction. Next, go to the mad spaz message board and say, "hi guys, I am a short, bald, fat, middle class devorce lawyer making money out of others misery and I am offended about the use of the word spaz in any instance. I have noticed that you have used it in a jokey ironic sense on your website and many of you seem to have a sense of humour and even a light hearted joke about your own abilities/disabilities. I however am offended by this. As an up tight suit, I think everything must be serious and people should do as I command, this means you! Yes, you in the chair, stop having a laugh and joking around. Some of your jokey pictures are in really bad taste. Life is a dry serious business you know!" Thanks
  16. Maye it's caused I watched them altogether but I really liked the third series. The first date episode was so good, "what's your favorite museum?" Dan is pretty good but the most Lols is from the sister. She is like so many women that are really out there. I'm loving it bear, I even watched the making of it videos on their site. I think the two main actors must be boning as they have the same chemistry off screan as on it. Or maybe they are not boning but want to so that is why they have the chemistry.
  17. Egg was offended on their and your behalf bear, it was enough for everyone.
  18. I have never called anyone that (if anyone has its the stain). You could have mentioned my cousin with downs or my brother with AS in your rant as well but then you didn't know did you... My argument was for the right to question a decree, then it developed when dig pointed out if you anylysed any of us, we are all insensitive. I was serious with with the sweaty/ Scottish thing. I also still hold that it's how words are used, the context and the meaning behind them that really counts. I am sure when you called whoever mental, you did not mean to compare them to people with mental Heath problems. The same with Turkish, if he gets drunk and the next day says he is too monged to go out. He is not using that word to reflect anyone other than himself. There is no defending the stain calling Milton a 'computer spastic', his meaning there is pretty clear. However I am sure we are all insensitive beyond reproach at times. There seems to be no discussing things with you as you ignore what you want and change things to suit you. Let's end it here, do say hello to your "jock mate in the pub", he appeared conveniently quickly last night after 11pm. What a guy.
  19. You should have a look on the mad spaz website, interesting read. They have a forum. One of the threads is 'what really gets on your nerves' one reply: Felicity Silver Member Posts: 224 Joined: 06 Jul 2003 Location: Planet Earth Political Correctness. I hate it when able bodied people are politically correct on my behalf. You could probably do with watching this as well. Maybe email ch4 and get them to change the name as it offends you. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/im-spazticus/4od I expect you'll be emailing the mad spaz site owners to get them to rename their website?
  20. Here you go mate. http://www.streetsie.com/category/disability-humor/ Now your turn to run along and call a scotsman a sweaty. If you can't find one, I'll be at the game on Saturday.
  21. Don't take my word for it egg, please ask a fellow Scott, preferably a big one with a temper problem.
  22. Trust me it is very offensive. If you don't believe me, go for a night out in Glasgow and use it. Now this is what I mean, what is insulting and offensive is relative. Calling a Scottish person a sweaty is highly offensive, I am offended by it, ask another Scottish person and see how it goes down but you "find it hard to believe". Offence is in many ways in the eye of the beholder. If I asked you to never again use that word in your life, would you follow my instruction or would you question it?
  23. Oh dear... I have found someone else that does use the one of the words... Turns out stain isn't so squeaky clean. Thread: Car Insurance Rant by the stain Replies Imagine getting all hot and bothered about something on a mongboard! Thread: The pre apocalypse countdown thread by the stain Replies I'm going to find your dog and rape it to death, in front of you. (very heartless to any rape victims using the forum) Thread: Duchess of Cambridge hospital nurse found dead by the stain Replies Yeah, that Russell Grant is a right tw*t. The fat bastard. Oh dear oh dear, Let he who is free of sin cast the first stone... Thread: Statue of MiltonRoader07 at St Marys by the stain Replies That took an hour? Are you a computer spastic? And the worst of all: What are you wearing? by the stain Replies I have a dark blue tshirt from George and some dark blue jeans from Matalan. Disgusting!
  24. Doesn't add up mate. I am Scottish and find it highly offensive. Doesn't seem like erring on the side of caution to me. Also, who has been called either of those insults on here? Turkish uses the word mongboard now and again and changed it to spazboard as there was a smiley called spaz. To my knowledge no one has ever used it to insult another. Unlike your insult.
  25. Not for the first time!
