... THERE ARE TIMES BEACH IS AHEAD OF ALL OF US AND WHAT HE SAYS ENDS UP TRANSPIRING IN TIME ... ARTIE BURNS MIGHT BE ONE SUCH EXAMPLE IF HE TURNS IT AROUND HE WAS RIGHT ABOUT CONNER HE MAY BE RIGHT ABOUT TOMLIN (UGH THAT MAKES ME WANT TO BARF THOUGH AND SEEMS MORE LIKE IT'S BECAUSE MOST HEAD COACHES STINK IN THE NFL THESE DAYS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE THAT TOMLIN IS BETTER THAN VERY MANY COACHES IN THIS LEAGUE ... I FOR THE RECORD WAS ALSO TOO HARD ON COWHER FOR HIS BUTT CHEEKS CLINCHING UP AND PLAYING TOO CONSERVATIVE IN PLAYOFFS UNTIL THE ONE YEAR HE TURNED BEN LOOSE AGAINST INDY AND DENVER) HE IS RIGHT ABOUT BIG BEN NEEDING TO REEL HIMSELF IN MUCH OF THE TIME. Point is, Beach, and I know you will read this if not respond to it or maybe read it and give a sarcastic response, but I hope read it and just post more around here ... anyways, like I am saying, the point is - you are read and considered way more than you probably think. Not everyone agrees straightaway but many probably keep your comments on the back burner and often end up agreeing with them down the road.
I like his stuff to. I was a CBS poster for a long time and just hated so much of what went along with it. It's great to be here amongst just fans of the Steelers and no trolls. Even when guys like Lyman, RR1, and others come here, the posts sre great. I wish this board was more active.
Where did Mano go? I see an occasional Beach post but no Mano. Not many of the old CBS posters are left.
I remember him saying he liked being a car salesman and told us to go ahead and laugh or something like that but it was the best job he's ever had. I often think of that when I am overwhelmed daily at this ridiculous office. Maybe he was onto something. Regarding his posts, he was another optimist and a good counterbalance to me and some others.
I mentioned your MIA post to him. His response? . . . "It only took them a year to notice I was gone?" Classic Mano
It took a lot less time than that, but what are we supposed to do? You can’t make someone post where they don’t want to.
I’m not ignoring you guys. Just been busy. I haven’t been on this site at all other than to exchange a few PMs with RR#3. Its not some sort of childish tantrum or anything, I would hope you guys know me better than that. My comment to Lyman was said in jest. I’m sure my absence was noticed before now.
