Not bitter at all.
Frankly, I’m not following the sport that much anymore. Come around here for fun and friendship. More on that in a minute.
Just calling a spade a spade on the above issue.
What I see is something that could drag this new place down, when it has the potential of being an even better place.
And one of the apparent current key headache creators is apparently the King of being able to dish it out for 20 years when they had Teflon, but now can’t take it.
I’m sure Matt can handle it. But if it doesn’t stop, there is at least one more dimension, not that I really like the thought, but revealing a few incoming PMs could really show what Matt is dealing with.
And I’ve given plenty of credit and respect over the years. Just recently used the term yeoman-like. People don’t pay attention to some details of my wordcrafting sometimes. Every single person has room for improvement.
DMac, contact me and share some stories.
Look, the past three years went a little downhill with a few people, and I acknowledge that. But, it’s a two way street. And there were at least five or six factors. Some of which are misunderstood.
Got to run. I’ve got to think about spelling out all the factors and catching them all.
As far as having “lost” friends, I have an open door and have reached out to several people, emails, calls, and not one single reply. So, who’s bitter? I’d say them. I’d happily talk to anyone who has a beef or who wants to laugh - people are more important than message board stuff.
Keep it real.
So, why even point out some behind the scenes BS?
Because this place, which is more of a bar for old connections to meet up and stay in touch, could become LP Titanic #2 if behind the scenes negative influence continues. At least as I see it.
That’s my point.
And I wouldn’t put it past some people to try and harpoon this place, Capt Ahab style.
But yeah, turn it around and blame me.
I support this place, and have had some enlightenment and realize the key is self-policing and self-moderating. How much profanity have you seen from me? Yeah, I tried a few things out early, and might slip occasionally, but I’ve diversified my message board portfolio and am involved in two really, really Wild, Wild West places that make LP not only look Puritanical, but more like Vatican City. So, I have outlets for Wombat Unplugged.
And, just how many cats or other images have you seen from me lately?
I’m here to have fun, period. Have a laugh, share a laugh.
That’s been my mantra for over 20 years. Hope you’ve enjoyed a little bit of it here and there.
Have a great weekend, DMac.

Instead you want to bad mouth the Mods, kick 'em in the nuts, print their PMs, let everyone know that Bald-ego was an rump for devoting so much of his time working on his labor of love (and one that attracted, and kept, a ton of good and knowledgeable lacrosse people). You've lost at least one long time friend as a result, and I'd bet more than that. Maybe you should check your bitterness level, seems a little high and out of line to me.
Here's something you can complain about here; you can't write a-s-s or c-r-a-p?
Very restrictive.
