@Hank Kingsley posted on the camp flood thread that taffee has two cousins that were counselors at La junta. No clue how to verify that, but there’s your connection, aggy. 

I mean, do you need a connection to a terrible tragedy that occurred in your backyard to honor the victims, many of whom were children.  I think the basic connection of being a decent human being should be enough.  

 

Anyway, fuck Aggy. Proud of Taffe

Well said. I don't have children, but the horror of those girls' last living moments was deeply disturbing in a way that many stories are not to me. Again, I think of the transition from being happily sleeping or awake in a snug cabin during a heavy rain turning to absolute deadly chaos. It's haunting.

Taffe's tie is tasteful and understated. It invites a question rather than screaming an answer. Compliments to the man.

And at least Taaffe didn't cause the tragedy in question, unlike A&M with a certain pagan fire ritual everyone with a functioning brain stem knew was a bad idea.

Yeah, if our guy really had an empathetic bone in his body, he'd have gone with the initials of those heroic bonfire builders instead. Don't understand how he could be so callous as to tip his hat to some sleeping 8-year-olds while ignoring reckless college kids who died before he was born. Shame on him. 

Can't wait for our guys to again dismantle these petulant dorks in November. Although I'm sure several other teams will have done so long before then.

The Taaffe family tree and their circle of friends have a lot of history with these summer camps. I can only imagine how many people they know who were deeply affected by this tragedy. 

I know people who have worked with Taaffe's mom at a summer camp. It wasn't in Hunt, but no doubt this hit close to home.
