a mike hasn't logged on since but PUOSU still lurking.
The level of football talk has plummeted in recent weeks.

Even the louisville thread, the most you get is "i'm worried about shough being 6'5, or their run game concerns me, or we haven't give up over 20 points this season, or 20% chance of rain".

Some really fun, deep discussion being had. I'm happy to not interrupt it any more with conflicting takes.

SHHHHHH. It's like Beetlejuice, don't say their names!

In all seriousness, there has been some more negativity around here since NIU, predictably so, but isn't it amazing how much more harmonious the board is when it's just simple discussion and not trolling? There are flaws on this football team, but we don't have them beating a dead horse

Putup hasn't been on here because he's been busy fulfilling his obligations at the Y.

Yeah, Dale needs to come back. Also, what ever happened to OMM? I know he was actually a really old dude. Is he still with us?
I thought about this recently. I really enjoyed his insights on the OL play. He really knew his stuff. Hopefully he's still around.

Mike's in his mid 80's, I believe. There's nothing online about him passing away, but yeah, he hasn't posted in awhile. I hope all is well with him.

....might as well broadcast the status quo: I read IE all the time. It's still too "personally nasty" some times to want to dive in and contribute anything. ... and this season is not overly inspiring of "measured commentary." I'll probably continue to try to shut up as to football. Maybe I'll comment some on what I coached: basketball. (far more collegial group of fans.)

.... as to health: borderline everything. But not terrible. My retirement community (around 150 people) has three deaths every two months. I live in an apartment on an 8 apartment corridor. We've had nine deaths in five years. Facing reality, this time in life is one to be close to God and watch monumental change happen to individuals. Thank GOD for my lifelong Catholicism.

It is GREAT to hear from you, OMM! We need as many OGs as we can get around here these days. Your insights on the offensive line play are missed!

I've been wondering about you for a while. Especially given the current state of the O-line. Would love for you to give us your perspective on the line. Take care and God Bless.

I will fight whoever bans you. I need enemies. Without you and the libs, I am nothing
Then speak to your Russian cohort and tell them to knock it off!

I got hacked and they posted some weird spam in some random recruiting profile.

It's blatant election interference. They know I'm changing hearts and minds in the political threads.

If @GATTACA! would quit clicking on junk porn links at a higher rate than my internet-illiterate uncle, we wouldn’t have to ban him for getting hacked by the Russian Troll Farm 🤷🏼‍♂️
Staying away from Russian Porn sites is always a good rule to live by to minimize chances of getting hacked.

I talked to my handler at the Kremlin. He said it wasn't them. Said something about Tim Walz's CCP girlfriend. I don't know, his English is not good and I don't speak Russian (yet).
