    How about the assholes who sit all their shit down at a machine (thereby 'claiming it') and then go off talking to their bro for 20 minutes while others are waiting for that machine.

    Just move their shit and let them work in between bro talk.

  2. Mine are unremarkable.

    Sat in Matthew McCaughnay's box at DKR in 2007. He wasn't there, but I got to hang out with his mom, who is one cool gal.

    Ricky Williams' daughter was on my daughter's volleyball team a couple years ago. He came to one of the games and couldn't hide his boredom, but let's face it, neither could any of us. Fourth graders suck at volleyball. I sat a few chairs from him, but left him alone because I didn't want to be annoying fanboy.

    So I hear there are a few dipshit shag posters that no one likes who have decided to stay on the abandoned site? Lol, I guess we got rid of some dead weight!

    If Rocko plays his cards right he could end up owning that town.

    So how does Bob not get into more legal trouble for essentially looting Shaggy before handing over the keys?

    Kevin Morgan and his douchebag Harvard lawyer can't do jack shit.  As others have pointed out, all Bob did was post truthful information about the change in shaggy ownership and formation of new site, which would be owned by somebody else.  The exodus from shaggy and the utter shitshow that's been left behind is completely the product of voluntarily market choice.

    If Kevin Morgan is really going to try and make a go of running shaggy, he'll quickly realize that even in this world of somewhat impersonal e-commerce, personal loyalty can still be a pretty fucking big deal.  Shaggy was a unique internet community for Longhorn fans that was Bob's creation, and was so significant for so many of us that when Bob left, so did we.  Kevin Morgan might as well try to buy Franklin BBQ and smoke a brisket himself.
