Actually, this "Growler" character was banned for killing a guy. Would that be a good enough reason for you, Hotlanta?

Let me get this straight, he was banned for making rape jokes about a Missoula reporter? Wow! In this day and age, that seems like a lame excuse to ban a poster. But that is just me.

Welcome back Steve.
Brint, why don't you admit that you are the mod who always bans me? Your excuse about a rape joke is pathetic as a reason for banning a poster. One would think that you would be embarrassed using that one as an excuse. We all know the real reason is that I got under your skin, and you couldn't allow another poster to challenge your reign as the all-knowing board emperor. If you have got a hair on your ass, you will allow me to post and stop taking your ball and going home when you can't deal with me on the board. Everybody with half a brain knows that you are the one banning me, and it really makes you look like a wuss.
Seems like many on here want me back. I stir the pot, like Alpha (who has made many posts more caustic posts than me to get banned) and it is all good. Deal with it like a man. You can't always be the chosen one, dude!
You need to allow me to assume my original screen persona, you know, the one everyone knows and loves (Growler), and liven up the dead board again!

I could give two shits about banning posters and the personal pissing matches you guys have.
But for your own sake, wouldn’t it be better for find a more productive and healthy hobby? You have got to be 60+ years old, and you are absolutely obsessed with an anonymous message board related to Griz football. How many screen names have you had to create to get back in the game? Think about it man. That alone should tell you something.

Actually all mods have banned you, they all keep an eye out for your account, you've gone so far off the deep end so many times on here that most all know what's coming. You've been barred from posting on Maroonblood... I mean... Alpha, the "post whatever you want" guy got sick of your act. If that's not telling I don't know what is.
You PM threats, you post threats, you claimed that someone couldn't be raped if they begged for it, and you assault posters like no other on this board. Sure it's entertainment for some - but for many they just want to talk football and not see that bs.
I disagree with a whole bunch of active posters on here and have no wish for any of them to leave this board. I hardly claim to be some all-knowing guru of this board. I'm here to try to talk football and share my thoughts. If you stuck to just football and didn't make everything so damned personal you'd probably stick around on these boards more often.
mtgrizrule said:Oh crap, he's back and has other screen names ready to use. I don't mind his posts, if and when he sticks to football only. Here is to hoping he can keep himself from crossing other lines, which often derail threads and turn them into pissing contests. As for BW, I honestly don't see a reason to call him out for not taking criticism, or not agreeing with him. He takes criticism well. Like others, he likely gets upset when someone else turns it personal and adds insults to things.
BW may not be the harshest poster when there is something negative or a difficult subject being covered. Then again, he is a positive person for the most part. He gives criticism with a grain of salt. Then again, with so many other naysayers, there really is not much reason for him to be very critical. Other posters certainly take up the slack in that regard.
This site would be much better if you could voice your opinions without turning it into anything personal with whomever it might be on any given day. I don't understand why you come off as having an agenda or ax to grind with BW. Is it you feel too many go beyond appreciating his efforts on this site? I appreciate his efforts and insight, but admit a few go a little too far in their praising.
It is comical when BW takes a break from egriz for whatever reasons (he does have a life beyond EGRIZ), we see people begging and pleading for him to do what he does. Some come off as bowing at his feet, and kissing ass. That is taking things a little too far. I feel for BW at times from fall practices throughout the season because of what others expect from him. I honestly wish at times we would see others take the initiative to do their own work, and give their own previews and summaries without feeling EGRIZZERS rely on him so much.
Either way, every day that passes is one day closer to football season. I look forward to seeing if Growler can actually break a record for time without getting banned. Can he do it? I will be surprised if he does. Welcome back Growler.
