I've been around for a lot longer than my profile says. Anyone else remember the days of Herky mailing list, a listserve of all things Hawkeye sports? Here is a link to its archives:

David Allen was their all everything returner that Bob Sanders knocked out of the game. It was so hot alcohol didn't even sound good to meI don’t recall Sproles playing in that game. I could be wrong though. It was the first game I attended that served alcohol.
But the point of being politically correct, as you put it, is NOT to curtail how people talk in private with friends and relatives. It is a request to be inoffensive in public spaces and to avoid offending people and hurting their feelings. I am not sure why that is a negative thing --- we should all be more respectful and polite when not in our own inner circles, IMO.Yeah, but that doesn't mean other people can't laugh.
That's the essential problem with PC logic. Always act as if everybody else is watching.
That's why you can say retard with your buddies or make sexist jokes with your buddies and it doesn't matter.
Lois Feldman thread…end of discussion.

I guess it's a matter of degrees.I don't disagree with that, at least with the not offending people bit. I always play it that way. With public stuff... depends. I think a politician or leader representing all people, of course, should it play it that way.
But I think what I pointed out is indeed what people don't like about PCism and why people complain about it. That's when PCism goes too far and why it gets a bad name.
Was the Fred something or another?
Your spank bank memory recovery game is solid, friend!I don't remember the guy but I do remember the wife wearing yellow bra, black panties and a football helmet.
Now you have a libel/false light claim against me!No, I posted my ex-wife and I in the "Post a Pic of you" thread. I don't remember the guy but I do remember the wife wearing yellow bra, black panties and a football helmet.
I think most guys think it's funny. But women deal with horseshit their entire lives, so their perspective is likely a bit different
We sure do! Pretty much since I was about 11.
5k, will be accredited 33 percent of verdict, remainder to client. That, and a pair of numbchucks
I'm fully equipped to mount a defense - come at me!Damn! Normally 10 hours? You're $500 an hour!?! Watch your ass @Tenacious E
I got me what the industry calls a "ball buster". They're usually reserved for man hating lawyers in dissolution trials.

So she doesn't care that you bang dudes?My funniest story goes back years. A long gone poster lived near my hometown, and one year I planned a trip back home to visit my parents, but wife could not get off work so I went alone. I sent an email to the poster, a good guy whose name was Jessie IRL, and we made plans to meet and have a drink. Now, the wife thinks this HROT stuff is nerdy AF, so I didn’t mention this to her out of embarrassment.
Fast forward to the week I’m gone to Iowa. Mrs Radley is looking for some information that she can’t find, so she goes to my computer to see if she can find it on my PC. She sees my emails up and notices one from “Jessie.” She doesn’t recognize the name, reads the email that confirms we are getting together for drinks, and reaches the conclusion that Jessie is a girl and I am having an affair.
She completely freaked out, had her best friend come over and try to talk her down, and they finally decided she would call Jessie (who had left his phone number in the email) and confront “her.” She calls the number, and Jessie’s wife answers! A female voice on the phone! Wife asks, “Is Jessie there?” and the reply is, “No, he’s not home right now.”
He?!?! Within 30 seconds she understood what was going on. But we still laugh about how for about an hour she thought our marriage was over!

You are assuming that I am not a lawyer.You better law up a barrister. Perhaps you can have one of the other hrot lawyers. If not, go pro ce
I got perma banned by John Miller back in the day.....hence the 2 at the end of my user name.
He was a despotic dictator IMO.

Can’t believe you forgot about New Orleans when talking about that era.I've always thought the 2002 football season was when this site truly took off
Then Mulva, Lois, gdr and the Revolt escapades, the poster that would post pics of his scantily clad gf before Hawk football games, Colorado hawk's wife posting about his browsing history (Leelee Sobieski...some whore)...those were some of the events I remember from way back then. Call say 2002 until maybe the 2008 election the heyday around here.
A lot of good times back then. But it seems like as the country became more polarized, the fun seemed to get sucked out of this room so to speak.
Oh well, all good things...

Well, even an attorney needs counsel when emotion is involved. It would be a shame if I won on summary judgment and you don't have an attorney to blame.
When the deposit is made is the formal agreement. anyways, I'm required to put him on notice of default judgment if he doesn't have an attorneyHey, hey, hey. I've already consulted with you. You can't talk with him. You should be telling him to represent himself with how much your charging me!!
QCcawk was more indicative of your general behavior.started in 2002 as well

I attended a DSM Boyz gathering. Of us panty droppers, @swagsurfer02 is the prettiest.There was a group in DSM meeting up for lunch every now and then…I almost considered showing up once, just to see how fat and ugly everyone actually is.
Me? To paraphrase Waylon Jennings, I'm too dumb for Iowa City, too ugly for Des Moines.I attended a DSM Boyz gathering. Of us panty droppers, @swagsurfer02 is the prettiest.

Hawk Meets World was a pretty fun hang IRLBeen here since 2005 but mostly lurked. So many good memories. The GDR stuff was funny until it got old. StevenPatrick (who I saw like a post earlier in this thread!) was a great troll…everyone thought it was Torbee but I’ve always maintained that it was Legend12. NPRLover, Derrick, GrantWood, OIT, The HALO schism was unfortunate but probably necessary. HawkMeetsWorld thought he was cool sh** for starting the “post a pic of yourself” thread. Loogey going nuts over some milf at church, the girl in volleyball class, Lois, Soybean’s coin on the fence post or whatever it was, New Orleans bachelor party.
