not sure if compliment or not

Definitely a compliment. There's a way of supporting your team whole-heartedly, paying out on your enemies, and not being a dick, and you've got the balance right!

So are you calling me a dick?

You reckon your post was aimed at others, not me. Yet back a page, I tried to give start up a genuine discussion on what you meant by "entitlement", and you replied with "This illustrates my point perfectly".  

So, you're either talking to me, not talking to me, or were just having a rant and don't care who you're talking to as long as they're a Broncos supporter.

I don't care about the Broncos hate: it's as entertaining to "us" as it is to "you", but I do hate it when an obviously knowledgeable poster (judging by your posts on other topics) can't have a reasonable chat about the Broncos IN the Broncos forum, and instead resorts to tired old cliche.

So, yes, you're being a bit of a dick. I'd love to talk about the Broncos with non-Broncos fans on here without every single topic being derailed. It's boring. If you've got nothing to say about the Broncos in a footballing sense, can you at least get some new material?

This is what I don't get. Blokes like Pieman having a crack: there's always a reason why "Broncos fans are dicks". Maybe I expect too much out of an online forum, but I don't get why I can have a good conversation & debate about League with the most one-eyed supporters like Ice and Honeysett, but there's always guys like Pieman who whinge whether we're winning or losing.

There are certainly dickhead Broncos fans, as I'm sure there are from every team, but the amount of dickhead anti-Broncos posters seems to be doing a good job of balancing the books.

On the weekends it's mainly Newcastle red

Haha a little bit precious - the posts mostly come out of jealousy though I reckon. Its a bit of tall poppy syndrome for sure. I would love for Newcastle to have some of the advantages the bronco's have, and Newcastle fans feel they have a right to criticise Bennett coached teams now after having failed massively for 2 of the 3 seasons he was there. And especially with how the team is now.
As a non-bronco's fan who lives in brissy, listening to mates talk about the bronco's and strangers on the train talking about it with each other etc, the bronco centric media here, its easy to get that entitled feeling, almost like spoiled brats. They feel they are entitled to win, and when they dont win, its never coz the other team was better.

I would also think that fans the team who we all know is going to be there at the pointy end of the season, would have thicker skin instead of taking everything personally.

Anyway, I dont take anything on here personally, no one should.

It is fun stirring up bronco fans tho lol

So in summary Pieman is aware he is being not just a dick but a jealous dick.

Also never knew you lived in Brissie Pieman!
You sort of remind me of one of those rampantly homophobic blokes that constantly spew hate only because they are ashamed of being a (closet) homosexual also.
Are you sure you aren't a closet Broncos supporter mate?
