Nah… that’s no big deal. I’ve literally had someone on here threaten to kill me, my kids and my family. They went smooth off the deep end. 

BPM. . What could you have possibly said that would cause someone to threaten all that. Or was it a long standing feud. I’m just intrigued. Apparently CT was a lot more like the Wild West years ago. We’ve gotten soft and too PC as a society in my opinion. You can’t express or share your true feelings about something or someone without worrying about hurting someone’s feelings. We’ve apparently forgotten about “sticks and stones”. Anyone can impulsively react to “words”. It takes a bigger man to consider the source and either laugh it off or tactfully respond without threatening violence. Or in your case death. Was this a common occurrence for you or other posters back in the day? I’ve heard of people getting kicked off the site too. Are people still getting kicked off to your knowledge?

I have heckled the Huntingdung posters over the years. I don’t think it’s any secret that I don’t care for the Stanks very much. I have gone back and forth with them over the years and it has gotten very heated at times. One night last season one of them went off the deep end. I admit I can push people’s button at times and have made some people very mad at times but never have threaten people like that. This particular poster did have his account suspended for a period of time. When they came back on I just ignore them and don’t respond. But they were full of hot air anyway. I made it know where I am every Friday night and my exact location in the stadium and the fact that I wear a shirt that says “BIGPURPLEMACHINE”. They have never come. Big talk from a nobody.

I have always operated under my current screen name.  However, your post reminds me of a passage from my favorite poet.

 

Quote

So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Nobody threatens The King and lives to tell it. There’s way too many places to hide a body up there in Roan Mtn.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
