    Some of the DM/Kim stuff is funny but overall it's definitely pretty weak to be centring your posting around someone you don't like from another site that you claim is an unimportant moron


    I don't think you were a doogman guy were you? Maybe just for a short period? A lot of posters here were on that site from the start in the late 90s. I know a lot, like me, got interested in recruiting when Neu was bringing in the Reggie class in 2001 following the RB win and signed up then.

    Those who don't get why the Kim and dm.com hate lingers so strongly, in general, just weren't there for long enough to really get it. They see what ducks those guys arez but they didn't see the transition from it being Dave's site to Kim and Fetter's site. Samek wasn't perfect (predicted 12-0 for Gilbertson lol), but he sure treated his customers with a lot more respect than the rest of the idiots.

    ChuckHIV nailed it.

    It's okay to shit on Kim on a semi regular basis here. It doesn't detract from HCH. I'd say it's part of our culture to laugh at Grinolds & Fetters. I'd like to see dm.c fail; implode if you will. The LPT not having a platform to spew their bullshit would be beyond satisfying.

    Unfortunately, there are still too many gullible schmucks who subscribe to that site & help keep the lights on.

    Dave himself seemed cool, based on my brief interactions with him.

    Kim & Fetters are contemptible & vapid. These are the same people who retroactively pasted Fetters' name to articles that Derek had written for dm.c. They deserve all the barbs & disdain directed their way. Plagiarising Derek's work is unforgivable.

    I actually appreciate the history lesson because I have never spent a cent there. Poked around a tiny bit but definitely don't know the full background. It feels like an expanded version of your comment should be in DJs welcome to newcomers thread

    Someone that knows a hell of a lot more than me should write that. Many here have known those guys personally.
