Husker_Du Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 Hey all, I zapped the first Final X thread, which went totally off the rails. If you know anything about me you know that i 1) want everyone to be able to speak their mind and 2) take impropriety very seriously. That being said, i think that discussion ran its course. i also was also uncomfortable with specific names mentioned. i felt it was the right decision. I know many of you won't agree so feel free to yell at me. but i did what i thought was right. 9 TBD
DJT Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 I assume it’s because mspart stated he secretly enjoys listening to Pyles. You’re right for deleting the thread, if that’s the case. We can’t have that smut on here. 3 2
LJB Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 enough people saw it that maybe it made a few think past their favorite color singlet... its heart was in the proper place... 2

If the person being named ends up being as big a piece of shit as he apparently is being called, I think that people should know that. 2

I think you are wrong, there is a time and place for everything. That was a massive thread to discuss Final X and making the world team. It definately went off the rails and became about something else. The level of discourse had devolved to the point that the original topic of the thread is pointless.
LJB Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 what is the bigger issue? a world medal? or possibly honor? self respect? or just possibly doing what is right? 4

Being very nearly the mortal enemies that we appear to be, it seems impossible... but I agree 100% with this message. 3

billyhoyle Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 I think this is fair until the point where there is an official public accusation (maybe a reporter writes a story about it). Until then, going the "He who shall not be named" route seems appropriate.

The real life measuring contest also results in being quite a large issue for me, as well. First World Problems. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me
pokemonster Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 Probably the right decision given the details discussed there... There's an open thread on the Iowa forums discussing it if people still want to have at it.

LJB Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 i am not going to sign up for hawkeye report, but... i do not know the specific allegations and i did not ask the one party involved that i have a relationship with because it is none of my business... one point that i want out there is that several safe sport reports have been filed and USAW refuses to do anything about it at all... any sexual relationship between a coach and their athlete is specifically forbidden and that it has happened openly can not be denied... and yet USAW does nothing and makes excuses for why they will not... that is a huge problem... and speaks to the main issue of absolutely no accountability throughout the organization... 2

LJB Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 Just figured I would update you all that retaliatory threats have been made… and some good people have (so far) stood up… and some others continue to be typical and slimy…
