Gotta love those Chi-townians. Only thing bad about them is that 75% of them immediately jumped off the Bulls Bandwagon when Jordan left. Some of the people here aren't too supportive of their sports teams.

European Cup Winners: 4 (record)

UEFA Cup Winners: 3 (record?)

FA Cup Winners: 6

League Cup Winners: 6 (record)

I'm so tired of coming here and seeing these sports threads. This is a tech forum. If you want to talk about sports there are forums out there for that. All these threads turn into flame fests eventually.

Someone should lock this thread.

I've seen it happen before. The sports people come around and start talking about hockey . . . the next thing you know it's football and baseball.

Not only are there no flames here, no one asked you if you like these threads or not. The subject of the thread should have been a clue to you that it was about sports, why go any farther if you don't like it? A lot of your more recent posts sound just like this one, asking to close threads. Why do you bother?

For the record, my favorite team is the often-overlooked Montreal Expos. Sure, it's probably their last season, but the team has so many terrific players and they're still fun to watch.

It's a Joke.

Actually, I don't ask for threads to be closed very often. So, you really don't know what your talking about.

However, I find it interesting that when a post like mine here, is placed in a thread about theology or politics . . . that's OK . . . but when it's in a sports thread someone comes back and says the very same thing that the whiners are told in the political threads. That . . . I find humorous.

Sorry silly_walk . . . you fell victim to a "mind-f**k." I don't care what anyone posts . . . this is a General Forum and I believe it should be open to any type of discussion. I do want to thank you for proving a point for me though!

;)

P.S. The sports threads do quite often turn into flame gardens.

TimeRider, if that was just a joke, it just makes people more likely to call you a troll!

My favorite sports team is the Jordan F1 team, they have a great attitude, and a lot of fun. Damon Hill seemed to really enjoy himself with them after races.

What makes me laff about football (REAL FOOTBALL, not 'american football'), is when people say 'did you see it when we last played'. The word 'we'. Makes me laff, its like die hard supporters think they are a member of the team. Hmmm.

Also people who support a team for no reason other than they live in that city/town. That strikes me as odd.

I like Jordans attitude to racing, I dont happen to live near their HQ, or know one of them. I just think they are pretty cool.

What reasons do you all support your teams for? I'm curious now my mind has started ticking over :p

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.
    • Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price by Taras Buria Having a Stream Deck-like device next to your keyboard could be a massive productivity boost. It lets you map specific actions and shortcuts to speed things up, and Logitech has such a device for you with a big 20% discount. Right now, you can save $40 on the Logitech MX Creative Console. The MX Creative Console is an unconventional accessory that consists of two modules. One module has nine customizable buttons, with each having a built-in display for mapping. You can assign apps, shortcuts, actions, or something else. There are nine buttons, plus two more for switching between "pages" of actions. The second module has no displays. Instead, there is a big twisting knob and a small roller for precise adjustments in creative apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity, and more. There are four additional buttons as well. The MX Creative Console is available in two colors: Graphite and Pale Gray. Both are now 20% off, saving you $40. Just keep in mind that the MX Creative Console requires the Logitech Options+ app, which is only available on Windows and macOS. By the way, each unit comes with three months of Adobe Creative Cloud.
