    Likewise @dixiehack.

    And, man, don't I love threadjacks like these. Fire up the Wayback Machine and get the yarn and pushpins out so we can connect the stories and aliases! I'm a sucker for the intrigue.

    Didn't he say today that Boom had a preps beat?

    It wouldn't fly today in the #metoo era, but remember his constant comments about Rebecca Lobo?

    The Ruden Report


    "Really did a fantastic job of covering local HS sports.

    Recently he decided to leave the paper to start up a web site dedicated HS sports in Fairfield County. I assume he will be generating
    revenue through selling ads. Really have to admire the guy for taking a chance and following his dream. Hope it works out
    for him.

    "Really have to admire the guy for taking a chance and following his dream. Hope it works out for him."

    This was the post that I remembered. It screams of self-serving BS.

    I can't find anymore of his posts, but at the time I remember going back to read his stuff and it all smacked of the same dude. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think so.

    He also worked at ESPN for a short stint.

    Am I the only one who concluded that Boom was the alter ego of another oft-banned poster? I'd mention the poster, but it would probably count as outing.

    Why do you enjoy trolling? (You can argue the point again if you want, but we both know you do it.)

    The principle is the same.
