Sorry if I came on too strong there. As I said, I like you and appreciate the friendly offline conversations we've had in the past.

What I don't like is that on day one, you started a thread titled, "Let's have a tell all of the JJ and Mountieman feud". What is that? I think that everyone here has heard all we want about that. If I wanted to subject myself to even more lies, embarrassment and public humiliation, I guess I'd go to your new site. But I don't. Further, I'm not participating in anything that would make that guy a nickel.

Pushing another site by posting on this site with a tagline of "there is a place where almost anything goes" just doesn't seem right to me. Everyone knows what that means and I think that by now everyone knows where to find it.

So peace, RefHeckler. As I said before, you and me are all good. Just don't use me to raise interest for the other site. I've been violated enough and would like for it to stop.

And BCFan, I'm glad you're having fun here and there. If you'd have been around last season and this winter, you'd see where I'm coming from. I'm a regular pro at the friendly banter, but some people just don't know how to be friends.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled football discussion.

My post was about Tim Hyde who left Ventura and who also happens to be friends with Kevin. Thats all my post was about.

It was also a tougne in cheek joke about how well VC"s defense had limited the Bakersfield offense the last 2 years. I guess if joking is not allowed here anymore, someone with some authority will let me know.


Your attempt to hijack the thread was not called for. This kind of message should be off line. I can give you my phone number as well if you want to discuss also.

I sent you a private message:


From JC Kev:  I am deleting posts left and right for a variety of reasons. One big reason is 'hijacking' legitimate threads. Someone may post a serious question worthy of conversation but them someone jumps in and makes an irrelevant comment, which sends the thread on an unrelated tangent

Fair enough JJ.....I had not followed the "hatfields and the Mcoys" family fued very much and didnt realize it was such a big deal but was looking to find a little info......

I changed my signiture twice now as it is very surprising to me what bothers some people....

As I have stated before, there should be room for more than one site, in fact I am now aware of at least 3 of them and I welcome all of them and if they are all worthwhile in my humble opinion then I will support all of them. I am not a big fan of any type of censorship.....

Good luck to you and yours next season......

I'm not a big fan of any site that does not police itself. This is the Internet and it can be accessed by players, coaches, parents and fans. When some poster's ego becomes more important than promoting the players and the sport, then there is definitely something wrong.

In the real world, it's called slander and libel. On the Internet, it's people "just having fun".

I'm very happy that there is more than one site now. Maybe the egomaniacs will stay off of this one for good.

I started thinking about how some, no, many, people believe that their constitutional rights allow them to post whatever they want, irregardless of the fact that 99% of us know that what they write is indecent, in the least, and may even be defamatory under the law. Personal vendettas against coaches, other posters, heck, even players, has led some to write things even on this board that made the rest of us just shake our heads at the callousness of these individuals. It makes us all wonder where the justice is and how these individuals, who obviously have no moral compass, will be held accountable for their actions. Do we really have to wait until Judgement Day for them to face the consequences?

So I fired up the old Google machine, and, well, of course, there is a rapidly growing and constantly changing field of law focused on Internet defamation cases. I decided to share this as a reminder to all to be careful what you say. You might just find yourself fighting a lawsuit.
