I was just responding to your statement that nobody else has claimed he is a good person. I vouched based on my experience. I'm not trying to insert myself into an argument about how people should communicate online. As I had mentioned, Egriz has a tendency to bring out the worst in all of us at times.

Responding to my statement?

I am not @MNFan . I have only had one profile on eGriz, ever, and will never have another.

 

[MontanaBornFan]

And almost none of what you said is accurate. I provide plenty to the board. You provide nothing. You think teasing the Cats is creating conflict? That is pretty funny. You are a weird guy. Everything you say is a bit behind and out of step.

Thanks for driving home my point.

You're right. I saw the "M_______fan" and the username looked similar to the other. My mistake, should have looked closer.

Yeah, that’s a different poster that Hoops berates, tells to leave, and threatens.

 

[Money!]

You know 100% of the 2024 players? What’s more current than that? When they see you after practice, do they come over to say hi? After they enter the portal, did they text you?

You hardly know any players personally like I do. They know you as a fan but they tell me the truth.

I refuted your incorrect point. Everything you post is off base.

No. The coaches are generally liked, as much as players like coaches.

Hmm well I know many players that have openly told me the don’t like some coaches

Some of them are pretty good friends of mine. They sometimes work for me. They invite me and my family to their graduation parties and weddings. Some stay with us in Missoula and at the lake when they come back to Griz games or for vacations. Do all fans get that treatment? These guys are completely honest with me. I know some of their parents too. I got tickets for some of them for Frisco. JD Quinn invited me to his big BBQ in Frisco. Had me invite some other players. About 40 players there. I invited Tru and his gang of 5 or 6. They came. You are barking up the wrong tree.

College football players often don’t like some coaches when they play. You never played, so you don’t know that. Wilson said nice things about Bobby and Cooper and the program.
You’ve probably never met him.

The players I know say hangers on like you are annoying.

Holy crap, reading Hoops comments all I can picture is the guy from the movie "All the right moves" pulling up in his convertible after practice wearing his 40 year old letterman's jacket asking the player if they need ride.

You don't know what bragging is and what goofing around, having fun and teasing is. I guarantee that my wife's family has a lot more money than your buddy does. Did any school ask your buddy for a $7 million athletic donation? My point to this joker, not your friend, was going to be that the law firm I joined out of law school, and my daughter did too, had a starting salary of $225,000 last fall as well as a guaranteed large bonus. Some people probably start some jobs above that, but 225 isn't a bad start. Senior and important partners in that firm make over $15 million, as they do in most of the best NYC law firms. That's not bad for a lowly lawyer. I agree with you that I don't care how much money people have, but for myself, I'm glad I'm not poor. Starting life in a two-room shack without running water or electricity, or obviously indoor plumbing, on the reservation, was fine, but, as I say, no one likes a nice bathroom and good toiler paper more than my sister and I. On the other hand, lots and lots of people care about how much money people have. You must be living in a shell.

I admit it when I make a mistake. When I said "Nobody cares about how much money you make.", that was incorrect. A lot of people do care. What I meant was, good people, real people, the types of people that I generally like to hang out with, don't care. Anyone that judges another person solely based on how much money they make\have, is not a good person IMO. So we might agree there. As for the whole discussion about how important money is to happiness, there have been studies upon studies upon studies about this and I do agree you that having money actually is very important to happiness, to a point. But as long as someone has enough money to be above the poverty line, i.e. has enough for adequate food\nutrition, clothing, shelter, health care, etc..... that's really all a person needs. From that point on up to people that are filthy rich, eff you money, there is no correlation between how much money you have and how happy you are. That's not just something poor people say, there are studies!

It’s a large 1970 Ford Convertible. Decades ago it became known as the Company Car. I never had a letterman jacket. We never had enough money until after law school. Never had a class ring or anything like that either. No White Privilege.
