    I have never -- ever -- tried to look up who people here might be. I never go through people's posts or otherwise try to connect dots. In short, I don't do any sleuthing, and I have a standing don't-ask, don't-tell policy regarding people and their identities here. If anyone knows who I am, it's not because I've ever told them, either on the board, or in PMs.

    But, my gosh, TyWebb, for the first time, I'm actually kind of wanting to try to look you up:).

    I'm fairly certain it had something to do with Trump just running for the publicity and dropping out by the primaries.

    My dumbest post was getting into it with people by claiming that Bonds was an OK left fielder. I wish I'd chosen a different hill to die on. I think that stunt forced LTL to make a formal apology on behalf of Giants fans.

    Now would be a good time to dig through the old Sheep threads and see how dumb and weird some of us are.

    NO.

    It took me some thinking (almost two years) to figure this out, but I think my participation in Sheep pushed a few people away from SJ.

    Was actually thinking about some of my Sheep answers.

    One year I was so far behind, I started looking for the most spectacular stupid 1-pointers I could find ... which defeated the purpose of the game. It was fun for this looser, though!

    My first 1,000 posts or so with this handle in the 12 years before the addition of the Like button. The post-padding era really killed my LPP Ratio in this new world. Damn.

    I only get to pick one moment of stupidity? That's like asking a person who's 200 pounds overweight, "Was there one Double Whopper in particular that put you over the edge?"

    I regret saying Katie Nolan can only attribute her career to parading her tits around. It was a drunken post that to some people made me seem like a misogynist, and I spent too many subsequent posts either addressing it directly or obliquely.

    Nice apology. The world is getting better as we all show each other greater respect.
