I guess I have to go. And I am kind of ashamed that I didn't leave when Wraithsword did, because... he's my brother! (...)

If it makes you feel better, pooka, I only manage to not be disrespectful to sports fans by not talking about sports.

Hey, pooka, take care of yourself. I have no idea what's precipitating this (sent you an email message, by the way), and I'm only dimly aware of who wraithsword is/was here (was there some controversy with his leaving or something? I take it from you post that there must have been, but I'm afraid that I completely missed it if there was), but I hope to see you again here.

Yeah, sports have never really resonated with me at all either. I know that they do with some people, and that's fine, but when sports come up I generally just go and do something else. I don't have any problem not being insulting to sports fans, but their fandom definitely isn't anything that I share.

I get the feeling that it's not so much about sports.....I'm sorry if you've been hurt or offended enough to feel like you need to leave. I wish you would stay.

I view sports about the same way I view comic books. They can be fun and enjoyable, but it seems a silly thing to devote your life to.

Pooka, I also get the idea that there is more than this going on, so take care, and I hope you will be back soon.
I didn't think it was cool, what was said in the baseball thread, but it seemed like a weak joke to me, and not something particularily mean spirited. I think Paul overreacted, but that happens....I've done it a few times myself...
So I hope you are OK, and Wraithsword too (although I didn't really care for him, I never wished him ill).

*nods* Oh yeah, taking a break is totally the right thing to do at times. I may take the entire month of November away to concentrate on writing myself.

I hope you take some time off if that's what you need, Pook, but I also hope you eventually come back.
