    I think Daje is already a UT lock, so I'd rather UT go after Coleman than Brooks. Unless UT can pull TJ back in, I'd take TJ over Coleman.

    Not sure about that. TJ might be another Darius White in the locker room.

  • So OB has gotten so bad that Ketch is trying to prevent a paying customer from sharing insider info on both sites? That's pathetic, even by Geoff's standards.

    Spoof? Or conduit for posting El Mahico stuff?

    simple jack - kirk lazarus from same movie in sig pics so I'd say yes but would make for a funny spoof.

  • This is something that bothers me about the business model of paid fan sites. I'm all for Gerry, Jeff, Bobby and the rest of 247 getting paid for their thoughts and what they write. But that is what I'm paying the subscription for. I'm all for Ketch getting paid for whatever he and his staff produce as well. But when some random schmoe who doesn't see a dime from the subscription or ad revenue posts on the board for free (or worse, paying for the privilege) then that info should be fair game for any and all to share and do with as they please. This is one of the reasons I hate the "Show post to Hookem247 subscribers only" box when posting here. No one should have to pay a subscription to read the crap I'm tossing out.

    I would agree with your last point if it were just UT fans over here, but we have trolls who just want to cause trouble. If we could just have UT fans I would say fair game but we don't so we have this wonderful feature.

    I'll preface this with the fact that I am not a lawyer. However, I can post anything I want to on the web, and then I can post it again and again, anywhere that will take it. Sites like this have every right to establish rules for posting on the site you are paying for, and to police the posts and make sure they comply with all rules. However, nobody has a right to tell me where else I can share these thoughts I post, because the information and ideas are mine. If someone is paying me to write articles, that is a different matter. If I'm paying for the privilege to post, then I can post anywhere that lets me have access.

    If another site is trying to intimidate its customers by demanding that they only post on one site, I'd be inclined to tell them something that the rules don't allow me to say here.

  • I got banned from Orangebloods for pointing out that El Mahico has never posted anything correct that wasn't already in print somewhere else on the internet.

    Probably one of their few good bans.

    Maybe he would have preferred it to be a male model. You never know.

    Yeah I got my sig privileges removed as well, for Marisa Miller in a bikini. But if you kiss their ass enough you can post naked pictures of your wife. Yeah, it makes no sense. They play that favoritism game. Also the current censorship and ban-hammer in chief is the "Iceman" character. Besides being a pathological liar, he is constantly deleting and editing threads.
