A place for open letters to the good people of the world.

Dear Board,
I fucking hate stupid parents, especially ones who don't see why people think their sons being at two schools in one year is an odd thing.

A little back story: Two wrestlers transfer from one school to another in the middle of the year -- and that was after they moved from Ohio before the school year. They get cleared -- which typically does not happen here -- pretty quickly and are eligible to start wrestling at their new school.

Two of the kids in my area lost to those two kids at state, and I said that team benefited from the controversial transfers. The dad has taken issue with me, and only me, but I'm not the only sports writer in the state to make mention of it in stories.

So the guy has been attacking me on a wrestling message board for the last few weeks. I'm at my wit's end with the guy, and he's really pissing me off with things he's saying.

I can't let this roll down my back, but other folks on that message board have come to my defense. I just wish this guy would go away.

KY,

It's a prep wrestling board. AND you're in the right. Even if the second part weren't true, the first part should be enough to know this ain't as bad as it may seem (and yes, I've been there many times).

But, did I mention, you're in the right?

And, most of all, fuck 'im.

J,
Thanks. I'm just fed up with his antics.

Dear Board,
I love the evolution of Magneto in X-Men First Class. The execution from good to evil is really well done.

Dear jlee,

That note is as solid as an Alex Lifeson guitar solo. Well done.

Sincerely, I Should Coco

 

Dear I Should Coco,

Which Alex Lifeson solo?

"Chain Lightning" or "Between The Wheels" or "Dreamline"?

I'd take either the intro to "A Farewell to Kings" (stunningly Hackett-esque) or just about anything in "La Villa Strangiato."

That's nice ...

Dear jlee, I Should Coco and Sam Mills 51,

All this talk of Rush is making me as tired as their music.

Dear board,

After three years of waiting, my fiancee's mom gets a kidney transplant tomorrow morning. She just found out tonight!! So happy for her!

Just sayin'

Dools,

Thanks. Really praying her body doesn't reject it.

Matt,

I join with you in the praying. Best wishes.

Good luck to your future MIL on the surgery. Be there for the family!
