That's a solid list of MIA posters. Miss them all for sure. Not that I agree with them all the time, but I think they all go way back to JSO.

And this is the real issue. Well said MPF. I only named 4. If I thought about it, I could probably name 10 more.Quote:

Personally, I think the discussion was better when they were here. But you all read it for yourself, the personal attacks are still in full force. Would you come back? Why, or why not?
I seriously doubt that 200 people went away because of personal attacks.Quote:

Didn't matter whether you'd done anything that day, you never knew when you might do something that was deemed spank worthy. So I figured that's how you controlled your kids. One day, my kid throws a stubborn tantrum and his father gave him a whack on the behind. The kid gave his father this look that said, go ahead, do it again and I decided there had to be a more imaginative way. I got said kid's favorite toy and put it on a shelf in plain view. Told him when he listened to mom and dad when we asked him to do something, he might get it back. We haven't spanked the child since. All I've had to do is ask if I need to start thinking of new ways to make him cooperate and voila. He knows his boundaries, there's consequences for crossing the line, and he doesn't fear his father. And my brothers still make fun of me for not spanking him, right along with criticizing their father for his unpredictable temper. Makes no sense to me.Quote:

Anyone wishing Favre ill was called a hater, disrespectful, someone who needed to get over it and on and on. Anyone wanting Favre to do well was told they weren't a true Packer fan. It spiraled downhill from there.Quote:

I am on the anti-Favre side, but I can say with certainty that the pro-Favre group got the worst of it on this board. By far. And unfortunately a lot are gone.
I spent a good deal of the summer away from here so I'm not completely sure who is gone for good and who will be returning soon. MOBB should be back soon. Who else aside from the four that Retail mentioned (And i dearly hope they come back) is gone?
Admin, why in the hell are you letting this go on and on?
This is a BF thread not a did the "ProPacker" people drive off the BF Lovers thread. This should be in the Romper Room not here.
I think ThunderDan might be a witch too.
Thread drift is somewhat expected in 322 pages :).
There are ways of telling if she is a witch.Quote:

So I appreciate the irony of attributing their loss to personal attacks by other posters when it probably has more to do with the personal attacks they were dishing out. I don't feel sorry for them or miss them.
As far as BF goes, I'm glad he is back so the Packers can have another shot at him with the Vikes.
He did great things for the Pack, but when he said he wanted to stick it to TT by plaing with the Vikes, he was saying he wanted to stick it to the Packers. That immediately spoiled his legacy in my eyes. The very next QB signed by the Packers should be assigned #4 and kill any discussion of retiring his number.
I'm sure Retail thinks the witch is me.Quote:
