Gary's Dad became ill when we were driving WA at the end of Feb. We got home he left to TX and was there a week before he dad died. So he stayed in TX to help his Mom till the very end of May. It was rough, so many things went wrong at the house I did 12 shows out of state & went to TX for the funeral in that time and he took a leave of absence so no wages for that whole time. We are finally getting back to "normal" and back on our feet money wise.. So much better now and that's why no camp reports this year...still recovering and needed to be self fish and just get my football signed...LOL hugs.

Are you coming out this year? I had a long talk with Sandy Clough and wow found out a few things.... but would prefer to talk in person. Plus I need my hug....later sweetie.

It's ok

A post can be within the boundaries of the rules but against the 'spirit' of the rules. When I wrote it it was in reference to knowledge of the issues that the players are protesting about, and I won't pull any punches on that one. I will look at it again tomorrow with fresh eyes. Love you, brother.

What board members did I insult? I was speaking generally, and that IS allowed. I didn't say "the low information posters," I was talking on a societal level. It's no different than the "if someone at their job," does that. I didn't escalate anything. Slick just went into that thread and said that everyone was doing well keeping it clean and apolitical. I kept it pretty clean while also not capitulating or pulling any punches.

You called out a poster for being divisive and skimmed out one guy telling the protesters to eff off (uncalled for, their hearts are in the right place) and another poster who called them morons. You then ignored the crap they shoveled at me, and between you and I in our exchange you were the one who got shitty with me. You wanna turn a blind eye to some of the obvious bigotry in that thread, go for it. And I love you, but the holier than thou act in that MHS is wildly incorrect.

I didn't know you liked hockey. Crazy game...really happy, but trying to not loose my mind...LOL

I deleted it, but that doesn't work logically. White people aren't oppressed, they're not victims of racism. They're the majority. You can't oppress the majority, and while you may not agree with this, I can provide you with oodles of scholarship on the subject. Also, I think I was within the lines because there are threads where we're told some slurs are in fact allowed, or at least not blatantly disallowed. I deleted it because I didn't want it to be a headache for you. I deleted it out of respect, and because I really, truly, sincerely, don't want to make more work for the mods; this includes lengthy discussions where even if I'm right it's still a big board blowup. I remember the letter I wrote and sent to the mod team. But, respectfully, I do not agree with your assessment, which in this instance, might not be here or there, but is relevant in the bigger picture.

In all honesty, I need an explanation.
