Being Fired for Posting on SJ

As to the issue of "He is who we thought he was" based on message board posts: At the Toronto outing, I found that the message-board personas and the real-life personas were pretty close to the same, at least in that context. Would they be the same around their offices or in public? Who knows.

 

I've found that to be the case, too, Dools.

Can't have 20K posts without revealing at least some of your own personality.

 

The true mark of excellence would be to get fired for posting on this thread.

 

I guess there's a positive side...if someone proves themselves to be a raving genius or a real great guy in their SportsJournalists.com persona, that might benefit them down the line...maybe...perhaps in some very modest sense.

For example, next time we have an opening for a copy editor, I'll likely ask RAMBO if he wants to come in for an interview.

 

I resemble that remark!

 

Yeah, I was imagining BYH stamping his feets at home during the Super Bowl yelling "YOU'RE STILL A FUCKING FRAUD!!" then collapsing in tears.

 

What about me?

 

You'd be for the slot opening.

 

Fixed. ;D

 

Somewhere, in a mountainous region of Arizona, sundevilpeg accepts your apology. ;D

 

I got fired today, boss said I am too drunk.

 

What is that stuff in that glass of yours?

Looks like it was wrung out of an astronaut's diaper.
