Is there a difference??

I read some of these posts that are so obviously tongue in cheek....and then on the other hand I read where someone tries to come over as funny, but you can feel the border line animosity dripping from every word!!!

To me, there are some who just have knack for it and others who get too defensive! And then, you always have the one who THINKS they are funny, but all their posts just end up making them look silly!!

:D :D

IMO...smack talk is all in fun, trash talk - not so much so!!!

IMO, smack without a cutting edge is just being mush mouthed. There needs to be a slight stinging sensation associated with it or it is just wasted keystrokes.

Yes.

The Ingleside folks wait with baited breath for my smack talk that borders on trash talk. :D

I'm confused as to which I am.:confused: I am going to go with just being a smartass, and leave it at that. My brother, on the other hand, is an only child.:thinking:

Good smack is just like stink bait. Good smack will bring in the whoppers! :D

I used to reel in rundoe all the time. Now he is like a deer in the head lights. He just dashes across the 3ADL highway every now and then leaving his silly little droppings everywhere. :eek:

IMO, "smack" tends to be good-natured whereas "trash" talk isn't.

IMO Smack talk is talking up your own team's ability, fandom, tradition

Trash talk is knocking down the other team's ability, fandom and tradition

But if I said something like...

Sweetwater is 18-6 all-time against Brownwood

...that would be doing a little of both wouldn't it?:thinking:

Do they still make those???

I remember when we couldn't have "Scalp the Indians" etc. anymore because it promoted doing "physical harm" to someone.

I thought that was SO stupid....it IS a football game!!!:doh:

Smack Talking is usually done for the fun of it among fans hoping to get a big rise out of the opponent's fans.

Trash Talking is the somewhat the same---except the author really believes what they are saying and that it does have an effect on the other guys. It usually occurs between players to summon some bravado, and most often with the opposite effect intended. Most high school coaches take a dim view of their players trash talking.

I got those in 2nd grade every week. The cheerleaders would sell them on the day of the game.

Snyder!!

Which actually gave us the second seed and much easier playoff road!

Vernon beat Snyder a week before they beat us in the Region finals!!
