What's this?

Well said, Chip. The obsession to repeat points of view took over three

pages on my scroll view. That's hundreds of posts of anger. Lost in almost every one of those posts was the fact that we'd beaten a team ranked higher than ours nationally 2 of 3 games on that team's home field - for what happened in the last stages of one of the games. In a series we outscored a national powerhouse 35-20 over three games.

Very little perspective and courtesy, almost no new information after the first 30 or 40 posts.
