I would think it should be the opposite, kind of. Lots of turkey legs might suggest longevity on the site, or an overall positive reputation. One with piles of turkey legs has already been established as a positive member of the community.
Maybe the available downvotes I have to use should be proportional to the number of turkey legs of the person I'm trying to downvote. Example: Newbie with -1 turkey legs shouldn't be able to downvote anyone. vtfly can downvote anyone with his piles of turkey legs. Translation: Earn your reputation before being able to call someone out with downvotes.
EDIT: Just re-read your comment again after I posted. I think we agree completely, now.
I do occasionally, when its appropriate to do so. In general I prefer serif typefaces though, they're just easier to read.
Also I think that comic sans is marginally better than if they had used Papyrus:
It happens to me as I scroll and I hit the downvote button
I think the Up/Down vote arrows should be spaced further apart, too. Especially on mobile, accidental down votes happen.

Me as well.
I think possibly adding in a requirement that you have to have x# of turkey legs to down vote could help...another option would be to limit the # of down votes you have available to use to a % of the Turkey Legs you've acquired, maybe you can cast 1 down vote for every 15-25 up votes you've received, if you only get so many down votes to use, people may be more likely to ration them out and use them more appropriately.
I like Caleb there because he can get involved in the option run game, he has enough wood that he can open something up as a wham blocker, and if he leaks out after a couple of ticks in pass-pro, then catches an easy pass... Boom, there's your playmaker with the ball in his hands and some real estate.
sometimes its just someone on their phone trying to upvote but accidentally pushing the down vote button. I've done that countless times.

Oh no. It just became clear to me thanks to that downvote. We have our first internet troll. God help us all...
I'd say at this point, anyone with hands not made of stone is going to be pretty popular. With Loeffler's offensive strategy, you need to have a TE capable of making some catches. True, the competition wasn't particularly challenging last Saturday, but you have to start somewhere. The loss of Malleck right before the Alabama game must have been a swift kick in the groin to the game plan. If we can get a TE open, that (1) gives Logan an option for short yardage and (2) keeps the defense wary of him such that opportunities open up down field. Combine all of that, and it's a reason for me to be optimistic about Cline.
Dropped TD? Yea, that sucks. But he's really new and the outcome of the game didn't change at all because of it. Does that need to be a catch in the future? Absolutely. I'm willing to cut a kid who has played in all of a dozen or so games in his life some slack at this stage. I have higher expectations of the more senior players.
I would say yes, but coaches just moved Caleb to tailback and have been raving about him there. Coaches also said Mangus to WR was a good move as well, so since he's doing well at RB I figured let him do both and keep Caleb to doing what he's been doing best.
From McSweeny's Short Imagined Monologues:
Why are people so high on Cline after this game? He caught a few wide open passes, most of which were off of the same naked bootleg action, which is a very easy play to make.
The realistic assessment is that he dropped an easy ball in the endzone that would have been a TD, and he showed very little as a run-blocker.
Granted, I'm hopeful that he will be a playmaking option for us at the TE position, but let's not get too excited after he caught a few wide open passes against the stout Western Carolina Catamounts.
Alec Baldwin would never cross the Hokie Bird, because....Sam Rogers
I think reading the community guidelines needs to become a requirement to register. Even if it just automatically takes you to the page and all you have to do is navigate away from it, at least that will get more new members to read them than are currently reading them. Downvoting isnt disagreeing, its being offended. For some reason this isn't being made clear
I think Caleb also has the size and speed to play the position, too. Maybe not from a blocking standpoint, but certainly from a talent and size standpoint.
Design of any sort, and even more broadly 'taste', is inherently subjective. However, that is, objectively, very bad design. Pretty embarrassing. Get someone in the art or design school to do something that looks both professional and exciting. It can be done. Yikes.
Not sure this measures up but have you tried Sportacular ( now Yahoo! Sports)? Pretty slick app w/ good stats.

Sam Rogers once flashed before life's eyes
What about Caleb there? I would go for either. Not sold on Coles right now. But I say let the coaches figure it out in practice and trust them to do whats best for the goals of the team.

# | Breaking News: Corey Marshall rejoins the team, Alston Smith moves to Offense Marshall's return is important long term. While the defensive tackle rotation seems to be set with Woody Baron and Nigel Williams as backups, the Hokies lose 3 senior defensive ends next season. Marshall may not factor this season, but his size and run stopping ability will be critical to what is shaping up to be a tiny defensive line next year.
No, I haven't. Just searched it, per your recommendation. One guy said he had to sign into Yahoo!...? Have you used it? Is this true? Do I have to have a Yahoo account or can I just be a random jagoff?
As long as I can get to team stats/passing/rushing stats it should measure up. I don't need drive charts, but seeing defensive stats would be nice. Is all that on there?
