Thursday’s daily. Starting today, anybody who jokes around about vaccinations–whether it’s the pro-vax crowd or the anti-vax crowd–gets a 7-day ban, and I don’t care if it’s aimed at players or ordinary people. Another instance of it is a permanent ban. And no, I’m not fielding questions or explaining myself on why or how come I ban or don’t ban whoever it is that is banned or not banned or whatever.

Some wise ass is going to pretend like they care so very “deeply” about how they can follow the rule(s) by asking me, “dO wE gEt tO tAlK aBouT CoVid aS it RelaTeS to pLayeRS and NFL?” Sure. Some news pops up about a team or player or game affected, post the news. The replies better play it super straight though. No digs, no veiled barbs either. When in doubt, just take a private victory lap and laugh to yourself how funny it was going to be with whatever it was you were going to say on here. Or go for it. Whatever. Free will and all that jazz.

I want people to know where lines are. I have tried to communicate those, and I have, many times.

I cannot create volumes of rules that outline specific things, it’s impossible and rather curious if any of you need a rule book to go by instead of just doing one simple thing: Stop yourself before you submit a comment and think if you would say (what you’re about to say) to the person’s face–AND, if you think you’re actually saying something about someone out there in the world who isn’t here, remember that people on here might be, technically, in that same type of group or of that same mindset etc.

Seeing how a few people think about someone like me who thinks like I think, and to think how many times others on here have felt like maybe today’s not the day to go to TexansChat and be mocked…indirectly, by the way…we need to check some stuff at the door and leave that stuff to other places like Facebook, Twitter, whatever. Show some compartmentalization skills.

If you post a comment and delete it because you think it might have crossed a line, then good. That should be happening more, to be honest. When in doubt, throw it out.
