For those that are wondering, Assassin is referring to a rude comment that has since been deleted.

Sorry about that, and welcome over!

What phinsphan said.

I guess taking out that comment did make Assassin’s comment confusing.

didn't realize we cater to other teams fans!

Sorry to all phisiders who I offended but no apology to raider fans. I thought it was okay to talk trash on other teams and their fans. Like my boy OFFL last post about Buffalo F—- them he said and I agree. Sorry to spit venom but I meant it. And thanks Mosul for not banning me! Now lets go Phins stomp the Faiders.
