Columbus Crew vs Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC (USL-C) 2019 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup – Fourth Round – Tuesday, June 11, 7:00 PM – MAPFRE Stadium FEAR THEM HOUNDS GRRRRRRRRRRRRR. GO HERE FOR THE REAL GAME THREAD THIS THREAD IS ONLY FOR THE GROUCHY POLL AND I DON'T WANT TO GET YELLED AT BY MODS AGAIN Just kidding. The real deal is here.
This is for the muthafuggin cup! THE CUP! lose by two. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM edit: *clicks official thread hyperlink* @chr1st you son of a bitch. youve done it again!
What the shit? If I was the dude that started the other thread I'd be pissed. He was genuinely pumped for this matchup and wanted to talk to the internet about it so much that he started the conversation a week early. And now it's just gone because he isn't a part of the cool kids club? Bullshit. I almost started a thread last night but thought better of it because, after more than ten-f*cking-years I'm not sure if I have the cred around here to start a conversation. Y'all bitch about hang saying that it's absurd that people who post here talk shit about Facebook, and well, you know what, he's right: at least there's no blatant elitist gatekeeping on Facebook. I wasn't on the Mods are Assholes Train before, but Jesus Christ I'll take a seat now.
I merge them, i get bitched at. I close one, i get bitched at. Fine, two threads!! Bunch of damn snowflakes around here.
Here's an easy solution: If there's already a match thread that was started by someone who may no know the protocol of waiting until one of the Anointed gets around to creating one, just don't create a second one.
As noted in the OP, this thread is just so I can track Grouchy™ Points. Of course, the Mods fear my War On Mods, so they goofed it all up. It's hard to have all this power sometimes.
My gripe isn't necessarily with your thread, which was started with obviously stated good intentions. But this isn't the first time that something like this has happened and it won't be the last. I stand by my criticism of the mods decision making skills.
And if the problem was due to lack of poll, it should be easy enough to merge the threads. IMO, a thread should only be closed because it was "old" (prematch, whatever) or there's too much bickering/fighting/etc. "When in doubt, use the lighter hand."
Remember, the mods are big stupidfaces, even if they do occasionally host the best future music podcast on the goddamn planet. EDIT: Come at me, mods! VERY COMMON DOUBLE EDIT: I like this one more.
I'm torn. Whereas I admire that the stupid face mod is a Desus and Mero fan, the mod remains a stupid face. Mod loses by 2.
