OT: Festivus - Airing of Grievances

Submitted by Magnus on

I saw it requested in another thread, so here is the place for the annual Airing of Grievances.

I have a problem with stephenrjking, whose name I thought was stephenjrking for the longest time.

I also have a problem with whoever negs this thread.

Grievances? Air them. Which MGoBloggers really grind your gears?

I'd like to expand on the Refs,

Even before that travesty on Nov 26, it had become quite tiresome to watch most football games due to the excessive amount of calls.  Even a well-called game by the refs will have 1-2 that are iffy and it usually has a big impact.  The officials were never such a big part of the game in the past.

When someone posts an article from a satire site on social media and people comment as if the article is real! People who comment on "share your memory" photos as if the photo is current. Bashing student athletes of the school you support.

1. I was ok with Kaepernick expressing his right to kneel, I guess. However, him not being even registered to vote was what really lost me.

2. Penn State winning the Big 10.

3. Male models on the Price is Right.

4. The complete incompetence that is the United Nations.

Jebus, people - can you not distill the title of your OP into less than five lines?  You know who you are, and you are bad people and should feel bad. 

Oh, and 2016.  2016 really pissed me off, apart from CFB (which kind of pissed me off too at times):

Learn the difference between to and too for the love of god.

Also Not really a grievance but but LSAclassof2000. Every thread you post a comment that's two paragraphs long without fail. How do you always have that much to say? You seem to have a story for everything. Too read, didn't long. Love you, mom.

The website issues Internet trolls -unless you're flaming RCMB, then it's perfectly fine Slow play on the golf course My girlfriend because she doesn't like sports (love ya babe) Being the low man on the totem pole at work "Safe places" and the "I'm offended culture" Any discussion about making athletes pros or employees. It's almost impossible given Title IX and Labor Laws in this country, unless you'd have no problem with Tebow playing qb at Florida for 15 years. People that bitch about Warde constantly. I'm not saying he's perfect, but things regarding football that have happened that people don't like probably came more from the guy on the sideline than him. Just saying. Does the "spread offense won't work in the BIG" crowd still exist? NFL officiating and their ridiculous favoritism towards the glamour franchises. I can't wait to see how badly the Lions get screwed these next two games. College officiating in general in basketball and football Share plate restaurants - order your own damn meal and eat it Jimmy Johns. Why so expensive for cold bread and meat? The "we need basketball recruits like we had in the 90's" crowd. Sure, we'd all like to see Coach B get more top end talent, but I think those people forget one aspect of our recruiting in the 90's. Brad Ausmus Most deadly now but the "Stafford Sucks" crowd Wrapping presents. Just use a bag.

Though, in fairness, Griese's post was rather difficult to follow. In general, sure, punctuation isn't the biggest deal. (Outside of grandma potentially being eaten, of course) but if it interferes with the ability to follow what was said...yeah, that's a problem.

as a fan of an NFL team who has been searching for a franchise QB for oh..20 years or so, I can't stand it when I hear Lions fans complain about Stafford. You know how hard it is to find a pretty good QB in this league? Look at the QBs for other teams around the league. My team would take Stafford in a heartbeat if you all want to get rid of him

What's all this fuss I hear about an Eagle Rights Amendment? Now, I realize that the eagle is the symbol for the United States of America. But I wouldn't like to sit next to one on the bus! Well, I think the eagle's been treated fair enough!

I have a problem with milestones and deadlines.  Haven't people figured out by now that those things don't work?  Set a deadline, and I'll show you something that won't be finished on time!  Give it up, already!!!  Things will be done when they get done.  Settle down and let it happen...

Selfie sticks. Not just them, but the attitude people who love them about being criticized for them. The B1G for allowing those damn refs at The Game osu fans saying to let it go People who never held a security clearance judging those who have Ryan Lochte. Can he just fade away already? Potential clients telling me, "Let's just talk in the new year." Folks who say "see you next year" all the time in December And most of all, fuck osu
