These are mine off the top of my head. Ones I have heard on here for years. The reason these are annoying is that they can't be argued or proven right or wrong. Hell, I know I have been in my share of these in the past.

1) The Hall of Fame argument- always starts with a certain player getting ripped on here for not being "worthy" enough for HOF status. Usually ends up up with hometown argumnets ensuing. A hometowner defends his local hero or another hometowner wants to say his guy is more legit. Still have yet to see one guy admit defeat in theses arguments.

2) The prove me wrong capping/challenge contest argument- This one comes around about every 3 months. It starts with a guy telling (and some feel bragging) about his gambling prowess and another guy questioning it. It ends up getting pretty ugly and than the challenge gets thrown out there EVERYTIME by the guy that feels that no one wins at gambling. Nothing ever gets settled with this argument either as the contests never happens. Pretty sure if one of these contest ever went down it would prove nothing in the big scope of things.

3) The who is better from diferent era's argument- This one is currently up on the 1st page. Usually gets to the point that one guy throws out google research and stats and the other guy's is strictly opionion. Much like the HOF arguments, no won admits defeat.

These are just the 3 I can think of off the top of my head. Anyone else have any? I think next time any of these type arguments start to happen than the thread should automatically megre with this one.

Yankees/Red Sox- for us posters that dont like either team, it is difficult to choose a side.

Religion. Bring up the subject regarding whether or not God exists always causes a heated debate.

I guess that it's safe to assume that you're not on the "legit sport" side of this argument.

damn...so much for hiding the bias lol.

I'm always willing to listen to arguments from the other side though. Maybe I'll be convinced it's legit some day.

Andruw Jones: Over rated fat, lazy POS or "guaranteed stone cold lock HOF if he retired tomorrow"

Winbet: Windbag or Gambling Sage - that would make a great title to his autobiography.

ktvegas you just don't get it , I doubt very seriously anyone on the Rx thinks that wrestling's outcome is not known before the match...you know just like the NBA....and as for steroids, look around the entire sports world, shoot look around anywhere for that matter.


carry on.

Oh c'mon Journeyman - tell me you didn't take what I said THAT seriously.

Having a corrupt ref or a cheater player (or players) is not the same as Vince in his office with a storyboard sketching out the new "rage in the cage"

Iowa's worthiness on the National football scene.

Anything involving Notre Dame/Brady Quinn/Charlie Weis

Dwight Evans HOF chances.

Cal Ripken's streak - good or bad.

The obvious Sharps vs Squares.
