Yes, I was speaking of American football. While your point is well-taken, my
original point remains the same.

Some males frequent this and other boards, and have never done anything
masculine in their life, at least not successfully. So they try to fill the
gap in their life by posting naughty words and casting insults to strangers,
making them feel powerful. Outside of a computer, they have nothing to
offer, so they stay within their little insulated world, where they can
dominate an environment (or so they think) and say things to people they'd
be afraid to approach in real life. Pretty sad, really. I truly feel sad
for them.
