Friday night hero's

Ummm....no. You know nothing about his child and what challenges his child may have had along the way, but you assume there is nothing special there and decide to post in a rude and disrespectful manner.

Ummm.... no. I didn't attack anyone personally.

However, I would consider the response for you and others rude and disrespectful. Want to reconsider?

Says you, fng. He's no angel. He's a neanderthal. I believe I will give him permission to beat you in to the ground.

Really cinco? You weren't hugged alot when you were a child huh? Or did you just not make the football team and have held onto all that anger for all these years?[/QUOTE]

He suffers from small penis syndrome. Don't pick on the fng too much. He's got to go find something else to copy and paste to come off as intelligent.

Well, your count is low, but your join date is not brand new, so I can only guess you just mostly lurk, or come here to buy stuff?

He's a douche. Let's move on. If we ignore him, maybe he will go away again.

Hey on the bright side Dave, my super awesomeness related to my post count has gone up due to your help!

Wow. Showing up to perform your assigned task(s), regardless of success, does not a hero make.

So by your definition....the fireman, police officer and the soldier are not heroes as they are showing up and doing the job that is expected of them? I believe all of the above are heroes, I'm just saying that not all heroes have to do something on a large scale. Anyways, I'm done....goodnight and have fun.

Then why not call them the "Friday night pride and joy"? Moving a ball up and down a pretty lawn doesn't a hero make. But hey, if people want to diminish the word "hero" by applying to people who don't deserve it, that's their right. It's Dennis' right to gripe about that too.

I got your back Dennis!

Thanks.

Unless performance is "above and beyond the call of duty", yes.

In alot of small towns across the country they are Friday Night Heroes. Just because they aren't to you doesn't mean they aren't heroes to someone else.

Why doesn't KFOR and others call track and field, wrestlers, basketball, tennis atheletes "hero's?"

I don't understand.

Do football players do something different to make them "hero's"?

Because it is not "feet ball"?

Hey guys easy on Dennis, He was just a small boy in school that played the clarinet and had a horrific "incident" in the football locker room.

sorry Dennis just kidding.

Hey, no problem, I just hunted, fished, and ran MotoX for about 10 years. Never considered my self a hero for taking a hook out of my finger, wrecking a bike, or whatever.
Seriously, I did want to learn the Guitar, and took some lessons. Still can't even do a good air Guitar to this day....LOL!

Dennis, I guess I wondering why you don't change the damn channel instead of pukeing. Seems kind of silly to me to watch something that makes you sick.

Check with thread #56 and let me know what you think.

I never said atheletes weren't special on a personal basis, no matter if they were winners or on the loosing side. If your son was a hero to you, that is a personal decision that I not only accept, but endorse. My son wrestled for three years and won 4 matches in High School. I still supported, and attended every match and three a week practices he participated in, as that is what he wanted to do. He tried his best. I praised him for this.

After high school, and a short hiatus, he continued the sport on his own in a different style of the same sport. He now owns a world title in Brazil style JuJitsu submission wrestling. He choked out the reining world champion in a match and owns the title for his class. Good job Son!
In my original post I said that KFOR called football players friday night hero's. I don't understand why the other atheletes in other sports are denied this title by their definition?

 

[VIKING]

I guess cause they don't play on Friday night. To call someone Thursday evening hero just don't sound right. Good enough?..BTW..I'm trying to think what channel 9 calls their football scores special on Friday night! I sure whatever it is is probably totally wrong to someone.
