[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 782396"] It is my opinion that I contributed something meaningful beyond the actual subject matter, i.e., observing how factoids distract from (or attempt to discredit) a larger point being made. You may not agree, but in my view it is a not infrequent habit of yours. Shall I lay it out for you? Why not. So, a guy says Alabama draws over 100,000 to their spring games, something that does not count for anything, to illustrate that the Packers drawing 65,000 for a practice that does not count for anything is not all that special in the world of football. Since I don't follow college football, my reaction to that was, "Gee I did not know that. Family night is not that unusual." Then you come along quoting correctly the 92,000 something figure with no color, no "but point well taken" or anything else, as though to discredit that poster. Yet the takeaway is the same. Family Night attendance is not that special in the world of football, with Alabama's 100,00 or 92,000 making no difference to the broader point that was made. In actuality, I've come to find Ohio State once drew 100,000 to a spring game and generally has higher attendance at their srping games than Alabama. That 100,000 might be relevant to some. From my perspective, if it was 80,000 it wouldn't make any differece to the larger point. [/QUOTE]
