Gone East

Lousy site to link to, Jack. The guy expects you to download.

Thanks buddy for saying my site stinks, it's common courtesy so you don’t hog all of the monthly bandwidth.

Actually I linked it that way exactly so that the reader would have a choice of downloading or not.

You get the point by reading his text. If you want to see the thing then you can download.

#1: Jack, Why do you say SMcCarthy has an explanation? I see no explanation there.

I don't think Joe Namath behaved that way to take the fan's minds off the Jets. So it's not an explanation.

I'd say it's pretty obvious why Joe acted that way. And I haven't even downloaded the clip.

#2: Sean, Sherman doesn't even have his own web site. So his comments about your site being 'lousy' are worthless. Worthless I say. Until the time that Sherman gets his own website his comments on sites being lousy or not are irrelevant to me!

#3: Sherman, start a web site.

The 'explanation' I was referring to, was a possible reason ("drunk") as to why Namath appeared impaired -- he did to me anyway -- when interviewed on the sidelines last night. That's all.

Second, I wouldn't characterize Sherm's response as "worthless". I would agree that it might not carry the same weight as from someone who had experience running a site, but an experienced observer has a valuable perspective too. But I agree that he should start his own weblog.

Finally, I didn't take his original comment as a slam at Sean. Sherm and I go way back, and I think he was dissing ME. It's what we do.

I'm sorry if Sean took offence. I only found Sean's site today. I liked what I saw, and I've added to my personal list to keep an eye on.

That's enough for now, I think.

OK, hopefully it wasn't a shot at my site. The way it was worded 'sounded' that way; sarcasm isn't portrayed easily in writing.

I see you are Sox fan Jack, what are your thoughts on the A-Rod situation? It seems like both owners want it (Hicks more so), and with the collateral damage that may occur with current players, Henry & Co. may have to force it through.

Namath Drunk!
Sherman Worthwhile!
Sherm Loves Sean!

Whew!

I'm glad that's all cleared up.

I guess my flames have now been doused. Ha Ha. I don't think I ever wrote a flame before. Maybe I just did. I'll try to write some less firey comments again on another post and see if they are recieved better.

Sorry. Didn't mean to insult. Was a quik comment made in haste. Sorry.

I'm spoiled -- on all the other blogs/message boards i go to, i never ran into this.

Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.

Damn, this is gonna get me on Santa's bad list, isn't it?

By the way, I might point out this is rare -- no one ever responds to my responses. So if we want to talk postivie reinforcement, today's lesson is be an "MOM ALERT!!!!" asshole, and people pay attention to you.

Sherm,
I think you've taken away the wrong lesson.

Hey you guys leave Shermy alone.

By the way, I answered Sean's Q about the Red Sox in private email.

Beth has always been my favorite Hodgson.
