No civil war. Im just a Lions Board Expat these days. Ridin' the rails, On the road, a man without a country,....... a hobo without a nest. Waaaay too much aTm for me to feel warm n cozy. Gettin' outta Dodge like a mid 30's Jew.

Rob resigned. Wanted to stop a civil war. Really not sure why having Rob being named Mod upset you so much. You thought it should be put up to a vote , perhaps? If so, let me say that's not the way it works here. Can you even image the hard feelings with the politics of campaigning?

I always liked you Smitty, but this doesn't make you look good.

Please, no outside pressure.

The NFC North will handle this internal issue.

Using our ties to the Notre Dame fan base, we will push for the placement of Microwahevo

Wouldn't work out. 90% of the Lions posters are scUM fans. I'd ban em all within 2 days. :yahoo:

A lot of low blows were dealt out already this offseason back there. Uncalled for type shit that didnt belong in a conversation then and I wont bring it into one now. (Shit people wouldnt say to someones face type shit)Never wanted any vote or to be asked for an opinion. (Used to love that board, haven't liked it much since the low blows came into it.) This isn't a democracy and I didn't expect it to be. Dont think it needs to be or should be either. "Janitorial" services aren't what I took exception to in the first place. If me not liking something makes me look bad, so be it. Me not liking one board currently was all that was. Not the site. I enjoy The Hoop, tried to make that clear earlier, in my last LionsBoard post.

I never got the sense that you were leaving the Hoop.

You can enjoy the Hoop without an NFL board, shit I do. I've posted a handful of times on the Bears board, that's it.

So you're loyal to the site but you posted this?

That other board sounds cool.

Question for you, smitty. If someone from the Lions board told me you PMed them about moving to another site, would they be lying?

Stop lying. I've never said anything I wouldn't and won't still say to you or anyone else's faces.

Spill it.

Looks like Rob has the upper hand thus far, with the support of the Admin.

Smitty being pushed into a corner, but also has some deep ties on the Lions board that us outsiders aren't aware of.

Unfortunately, for the rebel movement, it seems to only be a matter of time.

They'd either be mistaken or making things up. I don't want to say they're lying without knowing what was said. I PM'd a lot of people today. (Had to delete PMs cuz the box was full. Kept the ones from BOSSMAN)All but two were return PMs though. One was Rob, the other TPaul. (The exact opposite of leaving was my intent towards TPaul) I didn't want anyone leaving this site. I still don't.(Figured there could be a chance I get banned, didn't want anyone else to get the ban hammer) Regardless of my butthurt and rustled jimmies, I like your site Hammer. That was something I wanted to make clear.

Smitty, I don't think there's anyone here who doesn't like and respect you allot. Please tell me this isn't about loyalty to tpaulus, who got his feelings hurt over Rob's temp mod abilities?

Im Ghandi's much younger brother that moved to Burma and watched shitty CCHA hockey once the BIG10 started their league. No fight in me man.

And there it is folks, looks like the formal surrender has been issued.

Lock up this motherfucking thread, nothing more to see here.

If low blows were given, you had a mod to speak to. I read the Lions board often and didn't see a problem, but maybe there was. Rob has stepped down, so what is the problem now?
Listen we all would like to resolve what ever it is, but you got to explain it just a bit better.
