| Your thoughts are appreciated Nomar and I never thought you were anything but a neutral voice of reason during the last dark days. Just a couple of points to consider though: 1. Rick Feliz was one of the well known posters who wisely (in retrospect) kept himself anonymous IN TJ. That freed him to engage in an open exchange with Lakers without fear that personal insults, descriptions and revelations would be cast his way by Lakers based on actual observation (as he did with Rust, Curious, Porker, El Cabrio). While some of the anon posters were obviously over the edge and tried very hard to bring the worst out of Lakers (successfully), I believe that others simply wanted to get their disgust off their chest and effect beneficial change to RS without risk of Lakers doing to them what he did to the others. It is one thing to attack and personally insult RF based on his ideas, it is quite another to attack the others based on their personal appearance and habits, legal and work status. 2. I do generally find it distasteful to point fingers and adopt simplistic theories of "blame". But in rare instances, it fits. This is one of those. With all due respect, I believe the more complex theories that you and others have constructed to explain the current circumstances are intended to deliver a constructive message to us all, and they do accomplish that. However, it is not possible for me to believe that rational unbiased minds can believe deep down in their hearts that the answer is very complex in this particular case.
