    You mean the show that's subtitled: "Bob Ryan (when they're lucky enough to have him) and a bunch of midgets and shills?"

    Thought that's what your were referring to. Carry on.

    I've sat back and read many posts here. Many of them are comical because you are too young to know how good this guy was. And the majority of you do not and have never resided in the Delaware Valley to know the full impact of this story.
    Many of you are fawning over a newbie, William Penn, who claims to be a laid off 22-year veteran suburban Philly writer who took a shot at me. That's cool. But check this out, not once has he or anyone else pointed out a false statement that I've made about Conlin or this tragic situation.
    I'm not part of the youngster cyber clique at SportsJournalists.com. I'm not trying to become a part of it either. I realize that many posters aren't in the business and have found this to be a cool spot to rant and rave. It is what it is.

    Please stop trying to make the thread about you - and we'll stop making the thread about you, too. Thanks.

    Wow, my typos look much worse when someone quotes them.

    And Drip, you've given opinions, not facts.

    Can we drop the brip silliness and return to the "I hope Conlin gets shot to death" silliness?

    My post got deleted so we're going to try it again and hopefully, this will stick. This has never been nor is it about me. It's about a journalist and a tragic situation. One reason for the foolishness and unnecessary name calling here is that people have a problem respecting different opinions.

    That's BS. I have not refuted anyone's claims. Furthermore, you are upset because I told you that you were too young to know how good the guy was.
    I don't know what you mean by the "us in the Delaware Valley" statement. I will not out myself but there are those along here who know me and my relationship with the Delaware Valley.

    Yes, you are the Forrest Gump of the Delaware Valley. Life is like a box of poop you give to your ex-fiance. Be kind, take it to PMs, and have a nice "Bill Conlin Doesn't Need Statistics To Defend Himself Against These Awful, If True, Accusations Day."

    Indeed. Your work on the Gene Banks recruiting story is the stuff of legends.

    You heard it here, kids. Fin. Nothing to see here. WilliamPenn is America's next great poster.

    Another perfectly good thread hijacked by Quakers and their 17th-century agendas.
