RW Collin Graf (2021 undrafted; Signed by SJS)

He was wrong to call a rookie a rookie? What even is this discussion? "Rookie" gets used all the time in this kind of context. Nobody "acted" or "framed" anything, it's just a you problem.

It's a me problem because I point out some misleading word choice?

I guess on a message board we shouldn't discuss what we agree and disagree about with the posts of others. Just nod along at every comment someone else makes.

It's a you problem because you found the word choice misleading even though it isn't just like it isn't a matter of discussion but a matter of fact. He IS a rookie.

He is eligible for Rookie of a Year and Rookie of a Month awards, awards given to players between ages 20-23 ALL THE TIME. These players are referred to as rookies ALL THE TIME. Be it in the media, in the league communications, wherever. This isn't some out-of-the-blue comment someone made like you are trying to act. You would find literally thousands of cases of players of such age referred to as rookies in such situations. Yet you have a problem with one specific post "on a message board".

You are taking out this pet peeve of yours on one poster even though you are the one who has the issue with what is otherwise widely accepted.

You are getting very accusatory, and your initial post towards me was passive-aggressive.

If you disagree with my view, no one is forcing you to respond. I have nothing against the poster I disagreed with. I could've easily responded in a rude manner if I had something against the poster. I pointed out nicely how a misleading argument for Graf could be made stronger.

It's a you problem if you can't take that in stride.

You wrote 4 posts "nicely" trying to prove you are right, which you weren't. I don't think I was even that passive, I was pretty openly trying to let you know you are annoying flooding the thread with a pointless argument that doesn't even have a real foundation and has little to do with the player himself. You can take this criticism in stride or you can whine about it.

Of course you were passive-aggressive. You directed a message towards me, but refused to quote me. Was your hope that I might miss it?

Everyone else? You polled the website?

I have no problem here. I responded to a post saying a part of it was misleading. I did so because that was my opinion. That's all. No different than any other post I make on this website. If that upsets you and you feel you need to react against something so obvious, you are the one with the problem.

Just want to chime in that was maybe the dumbest and most unnecessary argument I've ever seen on this website and lord is that ever saying something

 

[Patty Ice]
