Starting spot likely waiting for fierce linebacker Poppinga

[Rastak]

Harvey,

When it comes to myself and Scott Campbell, there is no such thing as "good natured."

I just poke my nose in here to say hi, and I have to deal with Scott Campbell. Man, I really and truly have burned-out on talking Packers, been at it too long. That's all there is to it. I'm hoping to get interested again after a year off, since it was fun.

Jeez, this is really unpleasant. Later.

Oh Harlen, you're a funny dude, don't run off.......you are a great contributor to this site......

[Harlan Huckleby]

music to my ears, Rastak. But, must ..... let ...... go ..... of .... Packers.

Harlan! Hello !!!

Good to see you here Man.

[Terry]

Gosh, I don't even feel like I can make it as a decent sociopath since Scott isn't picking on me.

[Scott Campbell]

You are very kind to yourself! You chased after Woody for months, prodding and poking, it was pretty sick, frankly. You taunted Tank for several weeks.

Woody and I seem fine. I like him, respect him and enjoy his work here. Our history was at JSO - not here. Tank and I taunt eachother, and he was the inspiration for my avatar and rat name. I don't think those two guys are very good examples at this point.

I don't think your mad about anything I said here. I think your just mad about what you said, because it made you look a little foolish. It looks like you can dish it out, but you can't take it. Read what you wrote Harlan. It was only made funny by you coming back. It's your joke, so put that fragile ego aside for a moment and embrace the humor.

But I don't think it matters in the end, because I'm guessing you'll find a way to tolerate it. You gave it your best shot, but you just can't seem to stay away.

[Scott Campbell]

I don't want to be your enemy. Maybe you are a swell guy, and I'm just missing it. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Why don't you avoid me for say, two or three years, as an experiment. A trial seperation. I'll try and see you in a new light.

Ok, because you asked somewhat nicely, and because I'm such a swell guy, I'll tell you what I'm going to do. You stick to Packer talk, and you won't have one lick of trouble from me. You might even begin to enjoy yourself here again.

That means no more gossiping in PM. That means no more sticking your big ole hound snoot in other peoples business. That means no more psycho-analyzing of posters you don't like and slapping them with derogatory labels (see your use of the word "sick" in this thread for yet another example). That means no more manipulative attempts at running this forum yourself, and undermining Mad's authority.

Now I'll still respond to your posts just like anybody else, but I won't go out of my way to make you uncomfortable. Just stick to Packer talk. You'll be happy. I'll be happy. The forum will be happy.

Nutz, I am not taking a break, I am going to not post here anymore. And the real reason is I am changing priorities in my life. This forum is too addictive for me to dabble in.

I am not mad at Madtown or anybody else. Mad treated me crappy because he is kind of an idiot. So what. We'll be friends again and chat occasionally in IM, despite his macho statements to contrary now.

I am lurking in here because I don't want to leave with bad feelings, so many great memories of characters here. Your statement about me wanting to sour the forum, uhh, sorry you have this impression. I am rebellious, and speak-up to authority. And there's the pitch black sense of humor.

Anyway, anybody can email me at RBurger@SequelSolutions.biz, my name is Dick Burger, "Harlan Huckleby" is now retired. I am staying away from the forum because it is best for me to go cold turkey, not because the forum isn't a blast.[/quote]

Um, this can not be true. Your name is Harlan Huckleby, always has been, always will be. I'm not sure I can handle thinking of you any other way. Say it ain't so, Harlan.

By the by, I wondered where you went. I'm glad to see you back, and I do understand how this site can be somewhat addicting. I've backed off a bit from time to time. But who in metro Detroit will speak knowledgeably about the Packers with me?

As for Poppinga, he sounds like a strange ranger. Not that that's a problem. But if he can learn to not get fooled on misdirections, he could be a player. Taylor's been solid so far, though, so I'd let Poppinga start out on special teams and work his way slowly into the mix.

[Harlan Huckleby]

You stick to Packer talk, and you won't have one lick of trouble from me.

Who the fuck do you think you are?

That means no more gossiping in PM.

I don't gossip with anyone in PM. But on what authority do you make such a dictate?

That means no more psycho-analyzing of posters you don't like and slapping them with derogatory labels (see your use of the word "sick" in this thread for yet another example).

Sorry, can't comply with this one, chief. It isn't a question of me not liking you, it's your obsessive taunting of individuals that you target. I'll call it sick because that's what it is.

That means no more manipulative attempts at running this forum yourself, and undermining Mad's authority.

You have no clue. Your perception is comically wrong.

Now I'll still respond to your posts just like anybody else,

No you won't. You are going to stay away from me.
This is a friendly, social club. I've asked you to leave me alone. In a friendly, social environment, a decent person respects a request to back off.

You just reposted the same taunt about me three times, then snickered that you'll will never tire of it. This not friendly ribbing, this is harassment.

You've shown in the past that you have no social decency, you continue to pester people who have asked you to stay away from them. PackerRats has talked in the past about maintaining a "bar room" level of civility. In a bar, insisting on talking to someone who has asked you to leave them alone might end with a punch in the nose. On the internet, there unfortunately is no such check on rudeness. I hope that PackerRats will insist that you observe bar room civility.

Poppinga looks like way more of a player than Taylor. And Poppinga is what, 27 years old now? It's now or never. This is a rebuilding team, nothing to lose, much to gain by rolling the dice with Poppinga.

HH & SC,

Any chance we can get both of you at a Packer game this fall?

I think we can sell enough tickets for rights to watch the battle that we can make packerrats profitable in the first year.

Besides, watching the two of you punch and scream at each other should make for some pretty good streaming video. I'm sure GBR could handle the video, I'll handle the money, and Partial can handle the PR. Mad can provide the hosting, and we'll give each of you a complimentary tshirt....

think about it, ok?

Mommy and Daddy fight because of me ...

[Scott Campbell]

I've asked you to leave me alone. In a friendly, social environment, a decent person respects a request to back off.

And I asked you to basically avoid anti-social behavior, like any decent person would. But apparently you hold that too dear to let go.

Your return to the forum has been even more dramatic than your final farewell. But I'm sure you mean well Harlan.

Quoting my favourite line from that oh-so-famous movie about gangs in the 50's, The Wanderers:

"Leave the kid alone".

[the_idle_threat]

Hey, Scott .... Pissing all over Harlan at every opportunity is pretty anti-social behavior, too. Why not let it go?
