I do still pop in from time to time....and should not because I really don't want to be here,but when I read selected tripe I am very much challenged to restrain from posting.



But let me ask HODown a question.




Do you enjoy opening a thread with a deceased's name followed by the word...DEAD?


Are you a newspaper headline chief or something?


If you have to post it can't you just say "passes away" or something easier on the eye?















Why I bother really beats me.

Gotta agree with Morty on this one. Topic caption was maybe a little too strong.

Being in the college basketball business, this came as a big shock to all of the CBB fraternity. He was a great coach & family man. Many coaches out there are sleaze, just using these kids for personal gain, but not this coach! I loved his post game comments that the "kids won the games, not him!"

We need more guys like Coach P in the college ranks to help guide our young people in the right direction in life!

Thank you for applauding my fine work.


It's just not HODown..many people seem to enjoy posting someones demise........and by always styling it thusly:





What'shis/her name..........DEAD.












Let's not pretend we are New York Post headline advisors.
