    There's been a lot of Mormon-bashing on the site lately. Let's review. Mormons are a religious group. They live all over the world, vary in ethnic background and family size, and root for many different sports teams. The next time you're pissed off at Utah Jazz fans and you feel like making a crack about Mormons, ask yourself whether you'd make a similar crack about Jews or Muslims or Catholics, and think of something more intelligent to say.

    Second that.

    Since it's come to our attention that members of the Rockets media and mainstream media personnel are visiting the site and even seeing the BBS, we've decided to institute what I've termed the "Bret Easton Ellis Administration Policy":

    Less-Than-Zero Tolerance.

    We don't care whose side you're on. If you post something that is inappropriate, ouch time.

    Agreed. They may be the easiest to poke fun at since some of the things they people believe they have done in the past. However, all other groups have also had various things in the past that would open them up for criticism.

    So don't do it.

    BTW, Kagy, did you see American Psycho is coming out in April?

    Thankyou for bringing this up, Will. I just don't see the logic behind insulting another team's fans, whether it be through an ethnic/religious/whatever attack. It's completely uncivilized and shouldn't be tolerated. This goes right up there with that crap Fran wrote about Vancouver. Tasteless..disgusting.
