And all those times Tom calls Sue and Sarah "Idiots" or "at least I say
exactly what I mean" ad infinitum - you don't call THOSE mean-spirited?

We don't need personal attacks on Ridecamp, and we don't need to take sides
when they do occur.

The point Sarah was trying to make was that both Sue and Sarah have
ADDITIONAL sources of insight from their direct involvement in the sport,
not spectator involvement.

 That is EXACTLY the type of comment that does not belong on RideCamp. It
 is mean spirited and not nice. You do not have to be a great basketball
 player to be a great coach. You do not have to be a great rider to be a
 great riding teacher and I could go on and on with examples. >>

We agree - for one thing, my husband who is a collegiate COACH never played
past triple A. He is however, the most honorable coach, upholding the
integrity of the U (rare these days), with more players actively playing pro
ball than ANY coach in the nation, AND with the highest overall GRADUATION
rate in the nation. He never played Major League, but he is a major league
COACH.

We also agree that the original remark was mean-spirited, bad enough to say
privately, but certainly not on the Net. This is the only list I allow my 11
year old daughter to view. She said the same thing - "that's mean, Mama!"
