"I apologize for violating your board with my encouragement."
I don't have a problem with anything you said.
"I am not a dude, as I would think would be clear from my name."
Yeah, right after I posted I noticed that and I laughed. However, dude is now not gender neutral.
"I happen to enjoy baseball and did not imagine for a moment I would offend anyone with a single post."
You really didn't offend, you just don't need to preface every quote as you are a fan of another team. As long as you're not a troll everyone will be fine.
"It was never my intention to impress anyone my stating I am an Angel fan, it was nothing more than an introduction of who I am. Why on earth would I even think that the team I support would impress anyone anyway?"
It's obvious what team you like. If a person named Friar_Faith posted here we could all figure out what team the person rooted for. Many fans of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim like to take shots over here. Not saying you did.
"Shocked to be met with such rudeness."
Uhhhh, I made my comment and said you could post here anytime and put a smiley sign. :)
"I shall not offend anyone here again.
Whatever floats your boat.
"Do not understand at all how my post would be the least bit offensive."
As a Dodgers fan on the Dodgers fan forum, people are a bit testy.
