Another Fan Site

ANNOUNCEMENT:

Someone has been sending e-mail to the SportsSuck Secretary account almost every day for the past week. Whoever this person is, he (or she) is desperate for attention.

Here is the latest e-mail:

Just read it and be inspired!

Blog: Gordie Howe Hat Trick
Post: The 5 best up-and-comers A.K.A the High Five
Link: http://legendsofsports.blogspot.com/200 ... -five.html


I had ignored this spammer's previous e-mails but I finally clicked the link and visited the website when Earl told me about it. It's a blog written (apparently) by a hockey fan. This person highlights several of our members and compares them to athletes. I read and re-read this page several times and I cannot understand the writer's intent. Is he a fan, a groupie? Or is he insulting us? I can't tell. He makes several comments about his statements being ironic but... I still don't get it.

Anyway, if the page is intended as a compliment, my sincere thanks, friend. :)

I just can't help but wonder: HOW does the writer know that Earl has so much endurance? Maybe he's spying on Earl at the health club! Watch out for stalkers, Earl!

I think he's trying to insult us by saying we're athletes. And yes, I'm so insulted. So much so that I'm continuing to live my life normally.

Then again, it's probably because I'm a level 58 rare skeletal mage or some shit and my magik powarz stop me from becoming depressed.

ha ha ha haha --oh--be careful on that site. I left a comment and when I tried to close Explorer, it went crazy and tried opening tab after tab after tab. I had to control-alt-delete to stop the process. I think that site might not be safe.

We may be taking him too seriously.

So you guys are busy promoting the so-called joys of sports behind my back, huh? Traitors! May you all be trapped in a crowded stadium full of drunk and screaming SPORTS FANS during a GAME. :wink:

Maybe so.. come to think of it, I've been downloading a lot of stuff lately. I bet I've downloaded some malware or something.

I spent some time on that site and it has some pretty clever and funny articles about sports. It's obvious that the writer doesn't know anything about sports and is making it all up as he goes along. I think he's a fellow sports-hater. :)

I made a comment on his blog, pointing out his misrepresentation of what this site is about, and invited him to stop making cowardly posts on his blog and to come participate in the forums with us.

I look forward to verbally shooting him down rapidly and efficiently.

The hell? Now I just got an email from that guy sending me a link to his blog.

I guess he's hoping we all read it and become sports fanatics. :lol:

I have no idea. Could he have looked in my profile?

Apparently this is the same guy who posted in the Letters section. I believe he posted a link to his blog too. :roll:

Guilty.

As for malware, I have no idea. And any emails were from public pages on this website. Might want to look into that.

And as for not knowing anything about sports... well that's up for interpretation I guess. My interpretation: Supreme Sports Sagacity.

No harm intended. Unless you count mischief.

HAHAHA I wouldn't be surprised but since the guy is proclaiming innocence I suppose he's no big threat to this forum.
Though looking around people's profiles to get e-mails is kinda creepy... don't you think? :P
