Would it make sense to put a limit on the amount of submitted articles in a day???

Just a thought- there are so many articles submitted here which is great but it also thins out a lot of discussions-- 2 people talkin about this, 2 over here, 2 over there--

Not sure if this is possible but what we did like only 20 articles could be submitted from 6 am to say noon- noon to 6 pm another 20, 6 pm to midnight- another 20... or less.. or whatever...

It's just that we don't need 10 articles submitted all at once on Bonds... one would be fine and if you want to add to it go for it

Hey it's just a thought Now back to looking at Stacey

Ummmmmmm.....No.

That's not fair, because there could be 10 Bonds articles at once, and then someone tries to write a good non-bonds article, and they'd have to wait.

Besides, it'd destroy the whole idea about everyone being able to write their opinion, at any point.

And think it's too much work that Pean would have to do for something that's totally unnecessary

I'm siding with FP, but the problem with 10 Bonds articles, is that it blitzes other non-Bonds work. I have to re-submit the article I wrote last night because of this.

Well, Kelsdad, there was that one article that Jamel wrote about.... yeah, I guess you're right. Jam-jam - you have the talent, the ability to somewhat use a keyboard and obviously the energy, and you certainly have the propensity to be hilarious at times. You just can't get over your obession with homosexuality. Flip a coin and figure yourself out already!

This is a forum for writers and lovers of sport in words. I refuse to allow it to be called a blog. It's MORE than a blog. It's a community.

I like Jamel. I have no problems with his efforts but he lacks the depth and quality I KNOW he is capable of and that saddens me. Humor is one thing, but clearly the dude has a brain that is stuck in reptilian mode too much (fack, fack, fack).

I've said it a million times - if I want sex, sexiness, pictures of hot chicks and banter about sexuality there's no less than a billion other sites I can go to. If it's QUALITY sports banter I want - it's Armchair and THAT's it!

I would MUCH rather the conversation be controversial like race and bigotry than sex. Race issues happen in American sports and need to be addressed - sex issues are most times someone else's business.

And also for the millionth time "SPORTS hot" isn't always real life hot - there are hotter babes in the REAL world - go get them!

And Manny- sorry dude but I have a penis and I like to use it- I love the ladies and I love sports.. I love the ladies more. I also use to love drugs and alcohol but does would put me back on "vacation"-- and trust me on this-- you can't love the ladies on "vacation"-

Yes, but not until I get mine out of the way...

I would LOVE to see a weekly "Jam-Jam's thoughts about sports" kind of column though. Like a place you could gather all of your contemplations of the week. THAT would be a hell of an article.

I have the theme music if you want - a song by one of Manny Stiles' alter egos - Willie "Blisterthunb" Jones - called "Jammy Jam (All Night Long)" - it's BY FAR the whitest song I ever recorded though...

BTW, I also have a penis. It's quite long and VERY fat. I've done "things/professional endeavors" in the past that earned me the names "Clint Meatwood", "Girth Brooks", "Wad Stewart" and "Mr. Allnite" but it benefits me none by bragging about it on this site.

And until you can differentiate how YOUR "love" of women isn't a coverup for your fear of giving in to thoughts of homosexuality (you are a breeze for amateur psychologists) - WHAT does it benefit you?

You aren't getting laid by or with the help of anyone here on Armchair.

Comprende?

Actually my infactuation with homosexuality is only because it is forbidden here to use the word "fag" and Toni Romo is a "homo"-- in fact as my history shows I am a shit disturber- I actually believe that a large population here at armchair use this as a homosexual hang out- that is why any articles that I have numerously posted on lovely women get no attention and no comments-- before I went on "vacation" a women poster posts pics of dudes and 50 comments on guys cheered her on- sounds strange-

Now about your penis-- I have never met a man who shared publically on how big his johnson is that actually has a big johnson- if you have to share that info it is because you secretly have an extremely short dick and you know that we can prove it otherwise- it is like a person who writes on the internet about how he gets laid left and right when we know truthfully the only thing he facks is his Jay Mariotti doll-

Lastly- I will do a weekly Jam-Jam column on my thoughts on sports- enjoy and thanks for the theme music

I honestly look forward to your column, Jamel.

And... I DON'T need to brag about my endowment... especially to you.

But, all those dumb asses who brag about having large packages ruin it for the rest of us who do. Not that it's any great accomplishment - God gave it to me - as well as the rest of my oversized self (maybe as indemnification for making me so "pretty"). I also got the oversized nuts to match.

Imagine living a life where you're always uncomfortable because pants aren't made for people like you and you never get to put it ALL the way in... My wife "jokes" about getting surgery to reduce it's size.

Not so bragworthy is it?

As for the homosexuality bit, My brother was gay and his homo jokes were 10 times better than any of yours...

I get your obsession with destroying Mariotti. It's a fine pursuit. Yes, "fag" is such an inflammatory term but there's a line between "funny" and "obsessive" and I think you think about it TOO much - even IF you are gay, it's too much.

One of the few stereotypes of being a proud brother is the correct assumption of being "well endowed"! And face it - Jamel's articles/comments here are the guilty pleasure for more than a few here.

Fair enough. Whether Romo is gay or not has nothing to do with what he does ON the field. That being said, if he whips it out, yanks his center's pants down and tries to "ram it up the gut" I'll be the first and third to commend you.

Hey man, I'm on YOUR side! Anyone who disturbs people as much as you do is cool by me!

BUT... I want you to disturb them AND make them think - Not disturb them and make them go to the next article and think of you as what you're not.

I know you're too intelligent for most people (fack them!) and you like to have fun so you aim for LCD, but while others (Mariotti) HAVE to because they lack creativity, YOU don't need to!

Please, USE your talent! I've had enough conversations with you to see it's a real commodity/comedity. The people in the cyberworld should be afraid of you for viable reasons!

I mean, WHAT are you trying to accomplish? You have talent AND a forum! Don't waste it on some dumb shit, man.

Okay serious moment here-

YOu want to know what I fack around so much here at armchair??? Here's the answer- every single time any writes anything intelligent nobody comments or responds-- a great article with insight and sports knowledge gets one or 2 comments... then some douchebag posts the 20th article of the day saying "I love Bonds- he's innocent- dont' send him to jail" and it gets 50+ votes and 80 comments. The article that some poor bastard poured his soul into gets no freakin credit here- so what's the point for me to go and write intelligently when no one is going to read it or comment on it- that's why I suggest limiting the number of columns submitted.

Now back to being a stoned out retard-- duhh-- you guys are gay

I have mentioned this once before, but I think we should try to refrain from posting too many articles on the same topic. if someone beat you to the punch, add your $.02 as a comment. Admins should be able to shut down discussion on a repetitive article and direct it back to the earlier article. If someone has a truly new concept on an ongoing topic they can justify why it is so.

BUT, there's more than one angle to a topic. I could write 100+ different articles about Barry Bonds that have nothing to do with events of the past few days. WHERE do you set that bar?

The market always finds a way to settle the balance between supply and demand. Despite an overused topic, Good is Good. Let's not prevent or limit the Good.

ENOUGH with the knee-jerk reactions already!

We went through this when Barry broke the HR record. A week from now it will be something else.

If you're a responsible contributor, you will recognize the current conditions and react accordingly.

Nobody really knows what the other Armchair members are writing about till they publish it so not fair to criticize anyone if they happen to write about the same subject matter. Plus it is good to read different opinions of the same subject.
