LMAO! Hey Tank! I just tried to cut my hair again three weeks ago after buying a new electric shaver. Not kidding! Same result as before and I ended up having to get it "repaired" at Supercuts after employees at one of my clients roasted me mercilessly. Basically, I ended up with a #1 haircut.

 

I guess some things never change. Great to see you guys again!

Hi Justin.

My favorite poster there was Pimpmyteam ... whatever happened to that dudé. 

Evidently his boyfriend made him stop posting because it was taking away from their bath time together.

Was baseball mom the one who was completely enamored with CJ Wilson and then when he turned to shit, she jumped ship to the Dodgers and became a fan of Puig?

That sure does sound like @BaseballMom

Hey kids! I appreciate the kind words and that you guys still remember me! It's weird...I was just thinking of AngelsWin about two days ago.

I'm alive and well and still stomping around the same area. My business really expanded over the last few years (which has been good and bad...you would think making more money would maker things easier, but not always). 

I'll follow up on this later tonight or over the weekend.  I hope everyone is well, although I don't think Lee is. 

Thanks again!

Sue loved Peter Bourjos (and CJ Wilson) and when the Angels traded him she moved to the Dodgers board and became a Puig fan.

Someone actually thought a scrub like Petey would be an Angel for his entire career?

I am truly stunned that Angel Graffiti didnt migrate over here. He would have fit right in with all the sabermetricians. But I'm not disappointed.

I guess it's possible that he is here, under a different name. 

I doubt it..he hasn't cussed anyone out..yet.

She did,  in 2011.

Why the heck would be be all coy and hide his identity?

He wouldnt have to be coy. Maybe he just wanted a new identity.

I didn't use the same name when I came over here, either. I wasnt really hiding my identity. Just didnt use the same name. But I was open about who I was and where I lived and a couple of the regulars figured it out. They asked me, publicly, if I was cuidado1 and I had nothing to hide, so I admitted it.

I had lots of run-ins with him. He was just so demeaning to others in his tone. I felt it was in opposition to the free exchange of ideas that discussion boards should have.

Several of us called him on it, but it never changed. I actually concluded that he might not realize that he does it. 

Believe he gave Sue a pretty bad time, too.

[Dtwncbad]

I fought quite a bit with AG, head to head, with a good amoumt of intensity but also had lots of quality exchanges.

I am pretty sure he had a diagnosed something, albeit probably mild, that had a direct impact on his ability to function well socially.

Or guys like me who post once every 7 blue moons.

Question, how often is a blue moon?

According to some here, Arte shut down the OMB because of people badmouthing his decisions, and then made up a story about a suicide to hide his real intentions.

From what I observed, all of the MLB Boards closed except the Los Angeles Dodgers Board. I'm not sure, but I think a lot of it is because the teams all have Official Facebook pages now, where people can make posts and the moderators have a lot more control.

@BaseballMom is a huge Lackey fan.

Fixed.

Don't anyone confuse me with Sue or Jim or CJPitch or whatever the eff she became.  She thought I blackballed her on this site.

Not true all the boards are still up and working except for the Angels and Cubs. The links from the teams web sites may not be there but the messages boards still are working.

IE: http://www.forums.mlb.com/discussions/Houston_Astros/ml-astros?

http://www.forums.mlb.com/discussions/Texas_Rangers/ml-rangers?

http://www.forums.mlb.com/discussions/Seattle_Mariners/ml-mariners?

All the teams URL are same except the name of the teams at the end.

A blue moon comes around whenever the Dodgers win a WS.

I wish that exileindc would have come over.  

Whatever happened to light that baby up?

Yeah, was suprised he never did. He, angelsneverdie and angelsgraffiti were the big sabr guys over there. Changed my views on a lot of things (though AG was over the top sometimes). Always assumed they show up here. AND does sometimes, never seen exile though. Too bad, he was pretty knowledgable.
