Nice win. On a pretty much completely unrelated note, it's really weird to me that SuperJon is still actively posting on CoastalFans.

I still stand by it. He clearly is talented. It wasn't a knock on him but on you guys who made it sound like when he returned the team would all of a sudden be good. It's just not the case.

Love that we won though. Our defense will win us a game or two.

I wouldn't say that's unrelated. Didn't he say he was going to stop posting online because it was detracting from his real life or something along those lines?

Good to see he's dedicated to that end.

FIFY

Seriously, though, if he was going to cut out a message board, he chose ours--the one associated with his alma mater (for 2 degrees)--over one where he attended college for only a year or two?

As a terrible parallel, I used to play in 5 different fantasy football leagues, including one with a $250 buy in. That league was my number 1 priority, to the point where I'd turn off my alarm after checking the waiver wire Wednesday morning. Sundays weren't fun anymore - I was consumed by fantasy football.

So instead of cutting out the 4 other leagues, I cut out the one that I was most addicted to and invested in. (Then I quit the FF league after that stupid pro/rel/dibbs junk hit the fan.(unrelated.)) I'm now able to have fun with the game without getting worked up, stressed out, and there's more balance in my life. Quitting the other 4 leagues would not have been nearly as beneficial as quitting the first.

I can't speak for the guy, but I can at least see a very plausible reason to post there and not here.

Also he might just not like us. That's an option too.

I think it was the "SuperJon" persona was what he wanted to shed. It represented a part of his life from which he is now walking away.

(I think he could have both but that's my opinion- also I'm wildly immature and intend to stay that way)

Sch14teen is right: that persona had a greater hold here, where he posted more frequently.

oh that, and he doesn't like you guys
