BHF, in that quote I was referring to Broaddus.

Various print screens from this thread will be appearing on his blog shortly, trust me I know. I have been the target of a DC backlash for several weeks.

Hi DC!

Hi DC!

I don't think I've ever even seen his blog.

I find this pretty shocking actually. ESPN *loved* him. He did NASCAR stuff for them as well. That's a big loss - whether you put any stock in his opinion or not, he filled a lot of airtime and offered a lot of knowledge that they may have trouble replacing. I would rather disagree with Broaddus' opinion than not care about some overblown knucklehead bloviator.

I really like the guy. I wish him the very best.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

dcf was a bipolar kind of guy. Added a lot to the forum, was a bit of a weenie when called out. He had a bad habit of branding stolen content as his own and then getting proprietary about it. It was weird.

I've always appreciated Broadus. I'd never heard the story of why he stopped coming here, but if the suggestions are accurate, I'm just as happy he's no longer posting. Would much rather keep the site drama-free.

You can bet they both monitor content here, though, no matter what they say behind anyone's back.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

He'd be a temperamental pawn, who thought he was royalty because he took credit for the work of others.

The only thing anyone would be interested in in that group would be the house. What?

Wow. I, too, received a couple of PMs from Broaddus after I disagreed with him on a couple of occasions. He never responded to my replies, which were simply asking for more information. It gave me Tuesday impression that he was a little bit thin skinned and more concerned about being right and a step above rather than engaging in actual football talk.

I agree with the overall sentiment about him in this thread. If he was a good scout at one point, he stopped and became just like the rest of the media out there with an agenda.: stopped taking him seriously. I much prefer and value insight from SDogo and couchscout around here more than I ever did with Broaddus.

Well, I like and respect both guys. I'd gotten to know them beyond the forums. I knew nothing about PMs others got. I do agree, that is thin skinned. You'd certainly never hear of JFE, JJT, Archer, or the rest doing that I don't think. I guess I would need to know if people made it personal or not. It has happened to me quite often, so I know it could happen to someone else.

Hi DC!

I don't visit his site at all, but I was directed there earlier this week.

You really done pissed him off.
