OT, I made a post directed to thehat, but once again, you felt that you had to bully your way into my response. You might see this as an Off Topic board, but I see it as an Iona BB board. And I have no doubt that other coaches, when it comes to recruiting, would gladly point out to someone we were trying to recruit, these are the type of people you'd be joining in New Ro. Are you sure that is what you want? Now do I know that is/has happened, of course not. But I do think we're putting our recruiters at risk.
Now I've always cut OT a LOT OF SLACK, not because of his age, but because he grew up in a racist environment, where black people were considered inferior to white people. But that was 90 years ago, however, I see that there are some 'fine' people down in Charlottesville who still feel that way. And while on that subject, thehat, said that the people who were protesting the Nazi's, used the same tactics, that they were protesting. And I said that I could see his point. But in hindsight I wished that the people in Germany would have done more of that when the Nazi's were marching in the 1920's.
Also, looking at the Off Topic board, eleven of the latest twenty subjects (more than half) were started by OT, while only one was started by him on the BB board. Just keep in mind, BOTH are associated with Iona.
I'll close by complementing the president. I think that his press conference at Trump Tower, seems to be bringing the country together. And hopefully, he'll learn that in the Game of Life, LOVE TRUMPS HATE.
