Is there a third option?

You are usually better than that. SH fan board has a thread up "I hate JP Macura". Vast majority of their posts show respect and appreciation for what they saw. Anyone who objectively watched yesterday's game would be impressed that this senior did everything his team needed, to beat a ranked team in their sold out arena in a very hostile environment.
He’s a villain man. That’s what he wants to be. Ask and you shall receive. Sorry not sorry.

Yeah, you could just not care at all. There are no “sides.” I’m not trying to start a discussion. All I’ve tried to do is explain why very few people outside of Xavier’s fan base dislike JP. That’s it. That’s literally it. But for whatever reason, I’m not doing a good job explaining that, so I’ll go participate in the other threads moving forward.

Well, then this has been much ado about nothing. Very few, if any people inside Xavier's fan base dislike JP. And we would agree that few people outside the fan base dislike him as well, and probably simply have a grudging respect for him.

Notable in the sense that I imagine most people really don't care one way or the other. I'm a Xavier fan, I don't care if other fan bases like JP. On that same note, if there was a discussion about a Marquette player on here, I wouldn't care enough to comment on him one way or the other either. I'm guessing most people on this site are like me, and are tired of this discussion.

Seems your message amounts to, 'I'm not very interested in discussing a Big East Basketball topic on a Big East Basketball message board.' Can't reasonably argue that it isn't relevant or that '"people don't really care enough" given the topic has >25 replies and >1000 views, including your own.
