If you go and look back, most of the moves that Gillis has made RD has actually been pretty OK on at the time.

I'm not Doc, so I'm not going to go dig them all up and quote them, but many of the things that RD vilifies Gillis for he championed them as great moves and additions when they initially happened.

Just sayin' is all....

Lol. I don't kiss anyone's ass on here. The sychophant tag doesn't apply to me. I just tell it like it is. If I enjoy RD's character, it's because I enjoy RD's character. Not because I am trying to get into his trousers.

No argument me from in regards to the 'juvenile' moniker as I genuinely do enjoy racist and homophobic jokes, hands down. Some of my favorite comments on the board easily comes from Topper.
Well.. good for you...you like racist and homophobic jokes. And your tolerance for that type of humour makes you the moral authority on this board?

Looks like Dan Giardi will be staying in New York.

6 years for $33M.

What is the point of this idiotic post?
Agreed, if someone litters this board with out-and-out idiocy they deserve a shot of some kind.

Sometimes Dude posts idiocy on purpose.

Othertimes not.

This way when it's not on purpose, folks tend to give him the benefit of the doubt.

And I believe idiots thrive on the benefit of the doubt.

It's a somewhat tricky ploy, but any idiot can pull it off.

Personally, I think idiocy (on purpose or not) pollutes the board.

Having said that, Dude is capable of putting up very solid posts when he determines to be all he can be.

I stand with legendary poster Donlever on this matter:

Dude, please stop being an idiot and go back to what you used to be.

Likewise.

Having said that, so is Mathonwy and I must say I like the point he is making here.

RD knew that dark days would come one day and that Canucks fans in general are pitchforking villagers.

Before long our Canucks will be a 'contender' again... and Gillis will return to God status.

And RD will continue to attack Gillis' character/competence, knowing that inevitably dark days will return.

Don't give in to the dark side Dan.

Actually he has attacked Christians in general and one in particular based upon his Christianity. :twisted:

Oh the irony of a bigoted you-know-wot! :lol:

Also, in general, he's pretty quick to get down + dirty when his trolling achieves the desired effect.

(typical you-know-wot eh wot)

Having said that, we are all guilty of "personal attacks" to some degree amirite GM? :mex:

Why, one could say even the Great Strangelove has stooped to dat dere one or twice....

This was the voiced (posted) concern of my good buddy Donlever (RIP).

Seems like a fair deal for the guy. Makes Hamhuis' deal all the more valuable.
