How will I know when certain others might not mind me commenting in their threads again, if ever, possibly? Just curious, that's all. CD out.

It will take a long, long time for you to be accepted on the Forums... you are going to have to learn to be tactful.
Actually you didn't have much good to say about the Minnesota League... your comments were mostly about his poor sources... in my opinion they were negative and offensive to most people.
CD, you give "backhanded compliments"... you say some nice things, but then you ruin it with the negative comments.
Examples of a backhanded compliment:
Someone telling his mother-in-law: "My goodness, I'm surprised at how good this dinner was since I know you usually have such trouble with cooking."
"I Didn't Expect You To Get The Job — Congratulations!"
"Well, Half Your Logos, Jerseys and Caps Look Fabulous."
"You really do logos, jerseys and caps very, very well, but I will probably not use them".
"That dress makes you look so much thinner." (Implying that they think you're too fat.)
"It's so refreshing to meet someone who doesn't care how they look!"
"EC, I like the logos you did for me.. I will use them until I get some good ones."
