This is a big reason why I am trying very hard to refrain from gun debates on ST now.

I am way to invested in the topic and take some of the comments made way too personal. It is not an easy road to take either, but I think we are all better served if I step away from those conversations.

gun talk is one thing I try the most to stay away from on here -- nm - crash davis Dec 22, 12:42 15
- I am sure everyone has their own buttons that get pushed, it is mine. - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 22, 12:46 14
  - ha, you said trigger - crash davis Dec 22, 12:48 13
    - well, saying it and doing it are totally different animals. - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 22, 12:50 12
      - its hard doing it, but I try too. I'm trying to patiently wait for the season end to remind David that he said Russell and Alex Smith were identical -- nm - crash davis Dec 22, 12:54 11
        
        True. Smith has never thrown away a Super Bowl. -- nm - David Dec 22, 12:55
        
        you can always just mention Bryce Harper to him in the meantime. nm -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 22, 12:55 8

        curious--do you similarly fault Felix Hernandez for his 2010 Cy Young when the Mariners went 61-101? -- nm - ML Dec 22, 12:57 2
        
        I think it's a bit different for pitchers. If the majors had a Best Hitter Award (aka The Trout), it'd be a much cleaner situation. - David Dec 22, 13:01 1
        
        no one player on any of those 3 teams were a single standout. - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 22, 13:05

        imagine how bad they would have been without his league leading OPS! -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 22, 12:59 1
        
        Slightly under .500 instead of over, so a *huge* difference. -- nm - David Dec 22, 13:01
        
        oh no -- nm* - ML Dec 22, 12:54
