Maybe you shouldn't be spending your time on a professional sports forum since you seem to think there are much more noble causes on which to focus?

I'm sure there's some sort of Latin philosophical/debate terminology that would classify what you did there as a complete fallacy...but I know not what it is.
I still remember this one time I was in an argument with Mikey_the_Redneck about racism, and when he started losing that argument, he tried to deflect the topic by saying that racism isn't as big a concern as bullying at the moment. Like they were two mutually exclusive topics. Is Flatus our new Mikey? I sure hope so!
