That said, I strongly disagree that Dalton is top 5 or even top 10. Now if Dalton can maintain close to this level of play through the season while not having many huge stinkers, I do think it's possible he gets around top 10. Rankings are always fluid.

I'll wait.
I know what you meant by that, but by the literal meaning of the words in the language that we're currently speaking, your above statement suggests that you can't call him an idiot because you really liked him on the old board.
Again, just sayin'. A lot of us are influenced on how to proceed with a conversation based on the user name of the person we're responding to. Some people have an issue when that's pointed out though. I have no problem admitting that my overall tone can be a bit altered with certain posters, but I'm not above agreeing/disagreeing with someone that I don't usually agree/disagree with (I think a lot of us are this way). I wasn't suggesting that you're changing your arguments all together based on the poster in question, but merely that you were softening things up because you were speaking to someone that you generally like on here. Is it really out of the realm of possibilities in this situation? I don't think there's anything off base with my original comment, and I stand by it.
