For all first timers...this is what the smack forum is all about

[Joe from Florence]

Son, we live in a world that has rivalries, and those rivalries have to be supported by men with attitudes. Who's gonna do it? You? You, IHATETHESTEELERS? I have more responsibility here than you could possibly fathom. You weep for your message board, and you curse the Steelers fans. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That smacking Bengals fans, while tragic, probably strengthens a rivalry. And that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, strengthens a rivalry. I know deep down in places you dont talk about in chat rooms, you don't want me in this forum, you need me in this forum. We use words like smack, troll, owned. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who logs on and posts under the blanket of the very rivalry I uphold, then questions the manner in which I uphold it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a keyboard, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!
