Hey folks - as a member of the DawgNation community, please remember to abide by simple rules of civil engagement with other members:
- Please no inappropriate usernames (remember that there may be youngsters in the room)
- Personal attacks on other community members are unacceptable, practice the good manners your mama taught you when engaging with fellow Dawg fans
- Use common sense and respect personal differences in the community: sexual and other inappropriate language or imagery, political rants and belittling the opinions of others will get your posts deleted and result in warnings and/ or banning from the forum
- 3/17/19 UPDATE -- We've updated the permissions for our "Football" and "Commit to the G" recruiting message boards. We aim to be the best free board out there and that has not changed. We do now ask that all of you good people register as a member of our forum in order to see the sugar that is falling from our skies, so to speak.

You may be right. I'll go check
I work on the campaign for a democratic presidential hopeful. If we win we are going to redistribute the 5 star recruits throughout the rest of the power 5 so that there is more parity in cfb. I’ve spoken with @YaleDawg and his group of globalists have green lit the idea.
Also gonna make Bankwalker be a fan of Ohio State.
We've changed our minds to group of 5 and a select few FCS schools
At some point , there would be no five stars.
You joke, but I can tell you that a few years back a rec baseball program I used to be involved with (in fact the biggest such program in the state), replaced the term "all-stars" with "summer ball" in order to avoid offending the 90% who were "not stars." True story. God help us.
I work at the University of Georgia where I have two undergrad degrees. I've lived in Athens for 28 years. I love this town and its people and the university and I love the Dawgs. I also want all of those things I love to be better. Gotta say it's weird when folks put nasty stuff about Democrats or liberals on here as though we weren't welcome or didn't exist. Are Dawg fans all right-wing? Not in my world. Love to all on this board - I'm a daily visitor. And please know, there are many more Dawg fans like me!
Pretty sure there's a wide range of political beliefs on here. And technically the topic is off-limits. For the record, I will treat you with love and respect, in spite of your politics. 😆
Yup, technically the topic is off-limits. That's not a rule that's always enforced - especially when folks are espousing casually conservative views. Thanks for the love and respect. Back at you. Go Dawgs.
The mods are pretty good about it. The issue was much worse in the pre-mod era. We have maybe three guys now who still like to stir the pot. If you need a liberal ally, @YaleDawg is your man, along with @kelly_b (if he ever returns from his self-imposed exile on Elba.)
Rules. Rules. Rules.
Respect and Love to All....
Ehh....As respectfully as I am capable, I can assure you that one side does not have a monopoly on bending the particular rule you mention. People tend to notice political commentary they don’t like more than when it agrees with them. For instance, the comment above you’ve made could be construed by some as anti-conservative political talk, yet nobody will suggest your harmless casual comment should be censored in order to stay within a strict set of rules. Just don’t start up a full scale political discussion.
There is another rule about staying on topic, and yet another about not handing out personal insults. We may have to vote on this, but it is possible you bent that last one “just a bit” in the below linked post, which, amusingly, immediately preceded your comment about other people being nasty and you only offering love to all. 🤣🤣🤣 It happens

@AnotherDawg speaks the truth. He will unconditionally treat you with love and respect.
Go Dawgs!
Enough with the politics, don't care what you follow but this forum isn't the place to discuss it. Let's not ruin a good thread please
Did the not stars get non- participation trophies?
