The Dude's got to have his name on every topic.

Former Colonial Daniel Nixon coming back to Smith Center Friday! He had 2 pts, 4 rebounds and a steal in 5 minutes in Hampton's 110-53 blowout win over Mid-Atlantic Christian.

In other news, General Francisco Franco is still dead.

Actually we have to forgive the Dude just this once .... America's Greatest Coach's son got viciously posterized on national television last night. It has adversely affected him watching this become a meme and no doubt he must work through it on GWHoops by posting more than ever.

Guys, please stop and let's keep this thread clean for the Hampton game later this week. Thanks.

I would suggest that only the administrators be able to start an official game thread here. This is the practice elsewhere and will stop most of the nonsense by making the thread initially neutral.

Yes, certainly willing to show proper decorum on a niche message board when you determine to no longer spam this board with every thought real or imagined, germane or not germane, that pops into your brain. There are multiple posters who have expressed this to you multiple times over multiple years. I am unaware of a single poster who has defended your practices. Maybe instead of pointing the finger, you point the thumb. The board will be better for it and you will not feel so aggrieved, I promise.

What's wrong 0509, you don't like me giving kudos to our prolific poster dude!
Are you going to start removing posts once we start losing to teams ranked under 300?
Keep Raising High!

GW0509, you must see what's happening here. The Dude purposefully posts non-stop here with nothing substantive to say. Read his post that began the Hampton thread. It's nothing. Words for the sake of words. It's designed so that someone like myself or in this case, GW Rising, will issue a sarcastic or derogatory response. Then he gets to come crying to you, wondering if there will ever be an end to what he himself has instigated. He is a troll who has been on a mission to ruin this site for years.
With all due respect, your reaction should not be "guys, please stop." What it should be is "Dude, cut out this crap once and for all or you will be banned from posting on this site." That's how to make it stop.

What the hell is wrong with some of you? Who cares if the same poster starts a game thread all the time?
If you don’t like it, don’t read it. Or start your own game thread. But please don’t make me read through a bunch of posts attacking someone for starting game threads. It’s not what this board is for.
FWIW, I’ll be very interested to see how we play in game two, even though I can’t make it. Hopefully less nervous and we come out correcting some of what went wrong in the first half today.

Thank YOU... and please, we have an Admin who should not be allowing this to go on and ...on and on for the 11th year in a row, when does it end? Why are we allowing the board to be degraded month after month year after year with this nonsense??? Isn't that the point of having an Admin? Please, take a few steps to put an end to it thx in advance but seriously, its necessary and 11 years overdue and really going back to Herve's board over 30 years overdue with all due respect to the prior Admins

Wow FQ. Just wow.
I'll state this as simply as I can...if you truly believe any criticisms of The Dude are about his consistently starting game threads and nothing more, then you really haven't been paying attention.

Let's just stop and enjoy this board. I couldn't care less what beef you guys have from the past. How about everyone just moves. Lets keep it off the board.

Florida Colonial, keeping it off the board starts with The Dude. No more nonsense. No more trolling. If he can handle this, then his critics (myself included) would have nothing to complain about.
Read (or reread) the Mercyhurst game thread. Good points made, intelligent commentary. Exactly what this platform should be. Whenever things disintegrate, it's always the result of one poster. Someone who I'm guessing is doing this for shits and giggles. If he knocks it off, this board should be fine.

I was never pointing at anyone in particular. Just a plea to everyone to make a change. So whomever is responsible lets bring it to and end.
Yes I do appreciate the on topic posts that were posted.
I'll end with a basketball note. I was really impressed with Castro's game. But not being as knowledgeable as many on here about the game, I'm still very cautious on our season given all the wounds from previous years.

I do not know how many cheap shots you have taken at me even though I have not responded to any of your post in years, nor have I ever posted anything negative about you. In fact, I even defended you to Barry when I thought you were unfairly being ganged up on. Somehow you got it in your head that I am the source of all the vitriol against you through the use of multiple poster names when in fact I have never posted under any name other than Long Suffering Fan.

I was really impressed with Castro’s game Monday. I’ve heard his/the team’s interior defense against smaller guards hasn’t been great in the secret scrimmages. I hope this can be rectified before the Hampton game.
