This behavior would be what we now call “swift boating” –

People who are just crappy to others and have fun doing it, for some unexplained twisted pleasure of their own.

It’s a shame you were the target. I will add that you’ve handled it quite well though, nice work.

Whoever did this knew that I would go with it and say something. Am I that predictable? Don’t answer that. However, the attack was directed toward the individual that was named with the hope that I would say something. I think it was designed to get both of us at the same time.

That is so pathetic. In the grand scheme of things… it’s a game- a dog game at that! You’d think people would be able to talk things out like rational adults. Not sling attacks while hiding behind another person’s name.

Guess not…

It’s hard to understand why some people will stand behind their convictions and others like to stir up trouble and run.
Not everyone is like that, but it does decrease your faith in what is suppose to be a civilized sport. It reminds me of the students I teach, some people will never mature. Don’t take it personally, it is really about their own agenda. But, that is very difficult to do when the attack is personal.

I know, it is pure spineless behavior and for what? What does this get you? I just don’t understand it.

Whomever did this is just a coward! Too afraid to use their real identity, and stand up to their convictions. I take alot of heat for putting my voice out there, but, I can hold my head high and know that at least I have the backbone to handle the reactions – good, bad or indifferent!

This is just plan cowardice, so sorry Larry!
