He was always kind of a little bitch.  But it's funny that for a guy who didn't post all that much in politics, QO and Spock basically broke his brain.

Yeah. To me, it's just weird when the "straw breaking the camel's back" deal-breaker is something really stupid. Where we have a forum where people have no problems telling each other to GFY on a daily basis and usually aren't remotely subtle about it, but what makes someone leave is something like (a) other fans of your NFL team of choice not being cool with you openly cheering for a guy on the team that just beat you because college football OR (b) taking the two poli-forum right-wingers who are so over-the-top they come off more like caricatures than real people WAY more seriously than anything they say comes close to warranting.

I've seen arguments those two have been in (at times with each other) where stuff like "fucking idiot", "retarded" and whatever were flying around on a post-by-post basis, but THIS is what makes you leave?

I may well have missed something, but I haven't seen anything from Commander of Awesome  for a while.

He hasn't posted for a while but I think it's "life" more than anything. Sounded like he had a lot on his plate.

As far as S&L goes, for as much as he posted (and debated with me...him giving me shit for backing Brandon Weeden and me giving him shit for saying the Browns should use their 1st round pick EVERY year to draft a QB until they got it right), it would be funny if the Browns went on a run and made the playoffs, with him not being here to enjoy it.

One time he posted about going to a graduation party dressed in a Hawaiian shirt and spent the whole night talking with people using CB RADIO lingo. I was in tears.

He was a JJ top poster. I tried to get him over here. Later I realized......not a good fit. 
 

His by line was.....”running down the hall with scissors”.

Call me crazy, but I kinda miss good ole Isadore. FanFromTexas and Hits were also great posters. Sleeper also was good because a good spoiler is always fun!

 

You are crazy, but FFT was a great poster.  He hardly had any time as an attorney to post, so I doubt he has yet to find any time.  I think he had a kid too.

FFT is newly engaged and is the general counsel for a large company in WI.

 

Divorce and remarried?

 

 

Divorced and remarried. Had a crazy few years and kind of pulled my personal  Britney Spears and blew up my life but am in a good place now. 

Ironically enough, I was seeing people get canceled all over the place for what they posted on social media. I did a quick Google search of my old screen names to see if I said anything too egregious and stumbled across this thread. Small world...

I joined JJHuddle in 2000, when I was 17. Here we are, 20 years later—

Life is good. My sons are 9&7 now. They're growing up fast. Divorced (nasty and painful reckoning with a lot of things).  Remarried to a much better person, which has helped get life back on track. 

Still (technically) a lawyer, but I since moved into a managerial role and don't as much day-to-day legal work any more.

On the whole, can't complain. Happy to check in here. I mostly stopped posting because my workplace blocked the site, and posting much stuff on mobile is a real pain.

How are you doing? It's been awhile.

I’d like to point out BR has been missing since July 4th, when he was just getting tested for Covid.

I did that a few years ago, too. But I had to unfriend every single person on facebook. :(

BR has some crazy opinions. He had a few on here that are just..wow


Good browns fan though. But the “never been to a browns home game” is just pure blasphemy.
