Finally read that. Dodds is basically the guy who always googles himself or searches his name on Twitter. Most of his article is responding to things that were said here. He's looking for a reason to write that long diatribe so he can play the victim.

If you're going to put your stuff out publicly, you need to have thick enough skin to let some criticisms roll off. He clearly never learned that, because his skin is thinner than charred parchment paper.

But I guess if nothing else, this is pretty strong evidence that I live in a free top floor four bedroom condo in his head.

In his head...a blender of...brew77 combined with...Freddy Kruger...

Anyone who uses the “I was tired” excuse as a defense as to why their work product was subpar is laughable.

No surprise. He used the "tired legs" excuse for late season collapses. Apparently only Marquette has this malady.

 Agree with Brew that Dodds is extremely thin skinned. His knee jerk responses to anyone who disagrees with him, even if only slightly, is Exhibit A in support of the thin skin charge.

I only went over there to suggest he fix an obvious typo, admittedly a little tongue in cheek, and got that response. Which I still haven't read, but holy crap. Just crazy stuff.

If you only went over to suggest he fix an obvious typo, a private message would have been the better approach.

 And Dodds could have replied "Thanks. I've corrected the typo" and stopped there instead of what he posted.

Not to mention, when it's a public article that presumably people have already read and it is attributing a racial slur (I think that's what was mentioned, I didn't bother reading the article) to our new head coach, it should probably be brought to public light that our new head coach did not actually use that word, it was just a typo by the writer.

How is what Brew did even an Ahole move?

Any half optomistic human with an ounce of humor would have laughed it off and been like “dang brew, nice catch! Definitely not Shaka saying that! Sorry everyone my bad, haha maybe I should have done a quick skim through!”

But instead he wrote a 3mile long letter about something or something and that there’s something about 22 years of something.

If I wanted to be an a-hole, I could've done so. I pointed out the mistake in the appropriate thread and planned to leave it at that.

He not only attacked my response but used comments he found on other sites to attack while also attributing comments made by other people in this very thread to me.

Maybe misattribution, whether racist slurs to Shaka or other Scoopers comments to me, is just his brand.

Do people actually a) read this man's garbage and b) pay for it?

(a) yes, (b) no

He needs a few people to challenge some of his pet theories.

I’ve always found him to be very courteous and professional while explaining in copious detail why my opinions that don’t square with his are wrong. ::)

The bans come later.
