Although Bushwood probably deserved a permaban if he got one ...

I don't miss Bushwood. I am an occasional poster, rarely confrontational. I don't think I have been attacked by anyone on any post other than Bushwood. I have no one on ignore. Bushwood attacked me one time on a rant of which I am sure that he had to be drunk. He went on for 3 or 4 posts, ranting and making things up. If I was next to him at the stadium, he would have been removed. I hope Bushwood is not what people want on this board.

Many of us have been attacked by him. I have been several times over the years. His attacks are usually silly, over the top, and not something to take to heart. As I said, he most likely deserves his permaban. So be it. He was always extra revved up for UM and the referines and often quite entertaining. Too bad he so often lacks self-control and civility. We most likely haven't heard the last of him though. He's already had many board incarnations. Another one won't be a surprise.

The weird thing is he occasionally responds to his own posts and seems to be arguing with himself. I agree he's way over the top but sometimes it's pretty funny if his rants are taken with a huge grain of salt.

Wait...so you are saying BoDE doesn't like the University of Michigan? Hmmmm, learn something new everyday. Bushy who is Bode had issues with UM...next you are going to say he liked the officiating.
 
My favorite "comeback" of his was fairly recently. I think it was the "Franklin_Restores..." handle--he made an "introductory" post as a "long time lurker" and within the same thread was outed.
Bushie could no more hide his florid, raving, blistering, adjective-laden, carpet chewing writing style than Yao Ming could hide in the Lollipop Guild. Its probably been more than 20 years ago that he fixated himself on the notion that because I disagreed with some wild-eyed notion he was peddling, I must be a "sPitt troll."

I did not even know wtf that was. I probably hadn't sent 20 emails in my life. I stumbled onto this board and first thing I know i am being personally castigated in very harsh terms because i had the temerity to believe we did not throw enough screen passes, or threw too many, or needed a new punter or some other relative meaningless thing of that sort.

"Oh surrrre, Pitt-boy. We're really buying your idea that Joe Paterno knows less than you about ANYTHING, much less how to call a football game. Why dont you just tell us how Foge Fazio would have called the game, you shameless, bootlicking, gutless, selfserving Pitt shill."

He's the genuine article. Alternatively, perhaps what we know as Busheood, Get Real, BODE,etc., is just a rogue invective bot developed in a software lab somewhere that no one can turn off.

Yeah. I was pretty active in that thread. Threads like that are why I'm ambivalent about his presence. One of the funniest threads ever here. He got around 50 likes on that one. Hilarious.

if Bushwood didn't like what you. posted, he would accuse you of being a UM fan!! He did it to me several times.
You made the mistake of challenging his analysis of X's and O's. He was pretty confident in his judgments and opinions and in his position of authority did not brook opposition.

Or all the subtlety of a CC Deville guitar solo

Post of the day. I am glad I was not taking a drink when I read this or I would have sprayed it all over the place. Nicely done. Is that your line or did you hear it somewhere else? I had CC on my dartboard at one time.

Relative to his football knowledge, I told him he would be better served sticking to writing prospectives for mutual funds. Which BTW I think was his real job
 
The Preppie has more IDs on this board than Pitt has national championships. I'm shocked he didn't reinvent himself in time for the game. I'll bet his BP spiked at an all time high when that linebacker drilled Trace in the back.
Preppie often had some good stuff in his rants, but those posts were so flippin' hard to wade through with all the other crap he included. He sure made it easy to rattle his cage. I was certainly guilty of poking the bear more than really necessary.
I predict he will be back for the Buckeyes. Can't predict what his next board name will be.
 
One cannot keep the PENNSY KRAKEN contained for too long.

I must say, I thought of him and wondered pictured his inevitable SHIZHOLE REFERINE screed when it looked like Michigan lined up offsides and it wasn't called on Penn State's failed fourth down in the first half.

If a poster has a thread about him that draws this much interest, he should be part of the board community. I seldom responded to his posts because I found them boorish, but he had his moments.
The most entertaining part of his posts was not what he wrote, which was often boorish as you say. It was imagining him working the posts over, re-ordering the lists of hateful adjectives (is there some way in which "gutless, myopic" is better than "myopic, gutless?"), or seething over his laptop at some imagined slight, or laughing bitterly at some minor error in the post he was addressing which would give him the opening he needed to mock and humiliate the other posters most basic humanity.

I imagine him as kind of like Ted Kascinski, Michigan boy ,except his bombs might hurt your feelings instead of blowing your hands off and blinding you. .
 
I actually liked the guy. I vote to let him out of jail.

Just one suggestion Bushy:

LEARN HOW TO USE PARAGRAPHS!!!!!!!!
 
We've lost bushwood and seemingly have lost barry. Tom has not been recruiting well at the OUTRAGE. :eek: position lately, and it's beginning to show on the field. Hopefully the young kids will develop.

I forgot about Pennsy Kraken. I felt honored by that name.

Maybe all our outragers are under some sort of NCAA message board sanctions.
Now that taking no show classes is no longer an NCAA violation, there is a new effort: message board outragers sanctions. Clearly, these are secret. And there is no appeal. It is possible that Tom has been co-opted and is working with Emmert to limit our freedoms!

Barry and Bushwood are, in this way, being punished for exercising the freedom guaranteed to all of us! This is the greatest outrage of all!!!:eek:
