slideby i agree with most of your comments perhaps Big Brother thought borderline slander...IMO coaches tend to forget who funds these teams PARENTS not players!! on most teams girls compete for positions which is expected but players cant beat the "DAD FACTOR" which will always be an issue, that is why so many talented players leave strong teams. good luck in your quest for a new home.

Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person's reputation or standing in the community. Because slander is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. If the statement is made via broadcast media -- for example, over the radio, the internet or on TV -- it is considered libel, rather than slander, because the statement has the potential to reach a very wide audience.

When you make unsupported allegations against someone of stealing team money (a potential felony), that's slander/libel. Hence you get the boot.

Your other complaints are fair game for the fodder mill.

What about boobs? If the boobs are fake then doesn't that constitute a false statement, hence libelous?

first off the only people who know the truth are the people directly involved.
any stament that was made was fact based only.
it was not to "slander "anyone,it was to say hey, we were there,we saw it, we lived it please
be careful.
we were warned ahead of time but ignored the advice,next time we will listen more carefully.
you just never know about people and there motives until sometimes a little to late.

There is no Freedom of speech. Where have you been? This board belongs to a couple guys and they do what they want with it. Thats how it is, deal with it. Believe me, I've had my share of posts deleted, and pms sent to me.

Is it a problem for you to answer the questions that Mike posted? Or have you and I missed it? If your intent is to make people aware so that they can make informed decisions then you might want to provide actual information. Otherwise, I don't see what anyone could possibly deduce from what I saw posted which renders the thread completelely without value or merit.

As for freedom of speech and the role it plays on this site, common sense has seemed to carry the day. If you want to compare eteamz to HB WRT to free speech and the rest, you might want to check out most of the Texas threads in HB and compare them to the results of the eteamz policy that killed discussions on that site. You might also want to compare the increasing popularity of this site over the last 18 months as compared to eteamz' popularity as a place for discussion.

If your concern about freedom of speech on this site is serious, perhaps you can specify what the standards and restrictions should be. Your concern might result in improvements to HB, which the title of this thread suggests you would like to see.

If you elect not to be responsive to the above, I'm left thinking "you just never know about people and there [sic] motives."

slideby feel free to sign your real name and email address at the end of all your posts.
Coming on here anonymously and bashing people with no real proof is a little more than freedom of speech. If you don't like the way we run things around here go back to eteamz you will not hurt our feelings. I have a better things to do with my day than come home and have to answer a long list of suggestions and complaints.
