redmid17: Gulliver: IAmRight: Gulliver: If I wanted to sit and argue with a bunch of opinionated clowns about topics that didn't matter, I'd go to a family reunion.

If I wanted to read about breaking news, I might go to a news site. Or follow some of them on Twitter. Then I wouldn't have to look like a twat when I tell people what's important and what isn't.

I hope the Fark mods change every tag to a Newsflash tag for a week.

Until recently FARK has done a really great job of keeping the Sports Junkies and Political Loonies under their own headings where they stay segregated and happily argue among themselves.

If they change that approach they will lose substantial numbers as the majority of visitors could give a fark about either topic.

So you're saying youryou're irrelevant then? Go back to the kids table

Pretty much all of the Newsflashes ever have been worthless.

A backpack was left outside!

Earthquake! (ZOMG THE EARTH MOVES!)

Duke losing does happen every year though, so I can see that one getting annoying, especially since it happened a couple times within the last month. Not that it's anything to get worked up over since 99% of mainpage links are beyond stupid.

Or at least program them to kill them on sight instead of threatening. What the hell's the point of having Killbots if you're not going to kill anyone with 'em?

Whether Tebow's NFL career lasts two more years or ten, I'm hoping that at that point he'll be able to move on with the rest of his life and be successful in his future endeavors. I'd like to think that most reasonable people would agree with the sentiment. Of course, hard-core anti-theists (which != most athiests, BTW) and/or Merril Hoge probably won't.

So you're coming to the Bears then?

Since the NFL is all about parity, there should be a rule stating that Romo and Rivers have to swap teams for two weeks every December.

Just flew into Denver. I knew that it would a big deal here, but during my drive from Kansas (the airport) to the Tech Center it's all I heard for 30 minutes.

Callers truly think that Elway was threatened by Tebow's awesomeness and conspired to banish him from Denver lest his legacy be eclipsed by Tebow. This is more hilarious than when I was in Atlanta when Vick got busted and I had sports talk callers theorized that the Feds set him up because they're resentful of a successful black athlete. Yeah, that Michael Vick. The one who would be successful if his legs were his arms.

So, Sports tab purists white knight the sports tab whenever a wrestling thread shows up, and now there are main page and news flash purists white knighting the main page when a sports thread shows up there?

Is there a Business tab purist sitting there like the Maytag man, waiting for more than 3 people to post in that tab so he can defend it?

/I wanna see Teebus on the Cowboys, so the majority of my NFL dislike can be targeted toward one team. And if the Coboys got Vick, too, all my fanboy rage could be pointed directly at Dallas.

If it was December, the Cowboys would make the playoffs every year. Rivers is MONEY in December. Unfortunately, he has to dig himself out of a 4-7 record every time, due to 8 starters immediately going down in the first two months of the season.
