meh, i think the tone of this place is somewhat cyclical, based on how polarizing the team situation is at the given time.
I found the tone and aggression was at its peak this year when there was a stronger 2 sided debate regarding the coaching staff. It feels like most folks are done with the coaching staff, and the biggest controversial topic out of the way, things are more civil.
It's been a frustrating year for any flames fan, and CPers are somewhat obsessed so it's no surprise there was a lot of pissed of folks around here. I think many posters, me included, but also a lot of posters i have a lot of respect for as very sound and respectful posters, have been more abrasive this year. I know on 2 separate occasions, I have had to PM someone to apologize for an unnecessary post, and i felt really dumb/stupid about it, but i also felt better having done so, and getting a similar apology back.
