Default What\'s withthe south

What is with the south and the civil war? Get over it the right side won and the world is a better place for it. I bet you would not see a disc like this in the north because it's not good sportsmanship to rub the losers face in the mud after you have won.

It's kind of a cool stamp, lots of color and detail.

I am pretty slow most of the time (being from Texas), so I don't understand your criticism.

Should I send you some local accounts of what went on during reconstruction ? A face rub in the mud would be much better.

What are you talking about that disc looks great IMO?
If the Southern States want to keep their traditions then let them (even if you think that they are wrong). Maybe they don't have any thing else or can't find any thing new.
Have you ever thought of that?
Shame on you for saying such things.

That is the piont the north won and the south lost get over it. You don't see us flying a northern flag of that time frame on the capital of any of our states, or slaping it in our 1964 ford pick up truck right next to the gun rack.

Not everybody in the south flies or hangs a confederate flag, and to some people it has other meanings. I really dont know where all this is coming from but your generalization is very wrong and I dont believe its a good way to promote such a nice disc. I dont think you would want the southerners to stereo-type notherners as arogant arse holes would you? I am an American born in the north and raised in the south and everybody is different everywhere. The disc is very nice and I am glad you brought it to our attention but I think you should have done it differently without offending half of the beautiful, free country we live in.

My take on the disc; It doesn't matter if you are from the North or the South if you play disc golf. Both uniforms, (hats, i think) are laid down, and the two are out enjoying a round of disc golf. Relax, enjoy life.

Really? You would think you'd be able to afford to re-new your PDGA Membership then.

Or is that your Daddy's sissified-SUV you're referring too?

ha! sissified SUV, I like that.

I hate it when the ignorant make broad statements about history and/or the people affected by it. especially when it's nothing more than unsolicited bashing.

The NORTH! I grew up in "the north". There were more outspoken racist morons there than I've ever encountered in "the south"; though we do have our share. In "the south" there is just an abundancy of morons..........................

I concur.

Having also grown up in "the North" (PA) and having done both undergraduate and post-graduate work in "the North" (OH, NY, MA) and being a member of a visible minority, I must say that I encountered more racism, bigotry, and intolerance—both systemic and individual—in "the North" than I have since moving to NC.

The message I got out of that disc is "get over it" and I think it says it in a cool way.

Ahem, as a proud SOUTHERNER and a SOUTHERN NATIONALS player who will be competing in this event. GET OVER IT! In case you didn't notice, this disc honored both the north and south. It is one of the best stamps I've seen in a while and, since I didn't finish the thread before responding to your rather ascerbic rant, it's for the First Annual Southern Nationals Doubles Championships. Maybe this is why some of us just stay down here and play golf! Russ3523

Thanks for all the positive responses to the "Wrong sides's" post. That disc was designed as a fundraiser for the Southern Nationals Doubles Championships this weekend in Memphis, TN. Glad most of you like the design. I hope I can get one this weekend. Russ3523

Hey, red is your last name Neck.

"I dont think you would want the southerners to stereo-type notherners as arogant arse holes would you?” (Spelling)Lady_Nelle_V

How, do you come buy that? Just because we use both sides of our brains in the North, does not make us arrogant (proud or superior, I like these synonyms for arrogant much better) a-holes.

Mr. I cried when I heard about an NFL player died looking for Osama, but could not realize that a life is a life and hundred's upon thousands more have died that where no less important (Rooster).
Bet it's his real name.

What is this sissified-SUV you're referring too?
I think what your talking about is any SUV that cost or $40,000.00 that you can't hunt out of.

Who are these people you call notherners?

Maybe you should have stayed in the north, at least long enough to get a proper education or as it’s called in the south schooling.

Maybe you need to get in your car and ride to the course and smoke you one. You sound like a bitter man with a lot of frustration buit up. I will pray for you and I pray that you come to Iowa and you are playing as an Adv. Master so I can kick your insulting arse all over the course. Here is a little advise for you
You make a living by what you get..... You make a life by what you give. Get over it dude, the hot stamps are beautiful.
But I'm sure you will find something else to complain about.
If you come to Tennessee will show you what southern hospitality is all about and maybe you will think from both sides of your brain before you open your mouth again

Let me break some of this down for you:

(Spelling)Lady_Nelle_V
If you're going to chastise someone for inaccuracies in their spelling, then your own diatribe had better be perfect—grammar, punctuation, and spelling. You did not accomplish this, which makes you look like an anal-dwelling butt monkey.

Quote:

So, you’ve obviously read my journal entry about the death of Pat Tillman. Your reading comprehension skills are as poor as your judgment, logic, and ability to put more than two sentences together coherently. But I’d be interested to know why you thought that brining it up was germane to this topic (Hint: it’s not).
Quote:
Bet it's his real name
Sigh. Your level of ignorance and your third-grade level of rhetoric would be laughable if it wasn’t so pathetically inept.

It would have taken a person of average intelligence no more than 3 seconds to ascertain that my name is Robbie Cooper. “Rooster” is a nickname. And I’m man enough to stand behind my words on this board without hiding behind an anonymous alias. You, on the other hand, are not.

Quote:
What is this sissified-SUV you're referring too?
Ummm…that would be your soccer-mom Mercedes-Benz M-Class SUV that you insinuated (but most likely lied about) owning. Not a bad car…but little more than a glorified grocery-getter that wouldn’t know what to do with true off-road terrain if it accidentally strayed from the highway.

Quote:
I think what your talking about is any SUV that cost or $40,000.00 that you can't hunt out of.
I’ll take a stab at this one too, even though it’s such a grammitcally incorrect sentence that its intended meaning is unclear. But, if what you mean to say was “…any SUV that cost more than 40K that you can’t hunt out of…”, I would argue that the M- class fits that case to a tee. Now my Land Rover Disco II, on the other hand, is truly designed for off-road challenges. In fact, it’s one of the most popular safari and hunting vehicles in the world. It’s closer to being a 4x4 truck, while your hypothetical M-class is closer to a station wagon.
