O.oI agree that forum flame-wars often are dumb and irrelevant, but sometimes they can be a source of good laugh. Just like those hotdog/hamburger guys. If their insults are witty and fun they can provide a pretty good entertainment.I think that perhaps you shouldn't put yourself so much higher than those people. "I am the super bowl here, and they are some dudes arguing over nothing". The super bowl is not be-all, end-all. Contrary to what you wrote, people from all over the world do not watch it. Outside of the USA we simply do not care ;)Take care, Scott (oh, and hamburgers rock). You had forums? O.o
