As a general rule I think it's appropriate to be respectful of other teams, and their fans, especially if you want respect back. On the other hand, Landon's rants were so absurd that I can't imagine how anyone would treat them with respect. I agree with OCF that the Marshall posters who have posted here have been treated with respect. Look at the thread on "talent comparison" as an example. It was just a factual discussion with a Marshall supporter, for the most part.
By the way, if Ohio loses to Austin Peay tomorrow, I'd hope that we wouldn't get rants about how it was "unacceptable", but rather congratulations the Austin Peay, and discussions about where the team can improve, and on how to get the team ready for Akron.
