So another poster who is passionate about sports, as you put it, should suffer as a result? Why not say something to those people?
Either way, I don't understand why those posts really bother you either. It's not like it's an epidemic of page after page. Where do you draw the line? Is a page full of GREEAAARRRs acceptable but JETTOOOOS not?
This entire thing just smacks of intellectual sports elitism, which is why I find it so bothersome.
