But we managed to ignore for a LONG time and had the decency not to say anything to your posts, even if we disagreed with them. We refrained from posting nasty comments to preserve the harmony and prevent an argument. If you had just a fraction of that decency, you would have given us the same respect and allowed us to have a thread remembering the MMS show, things would have remained the same.
But alas, you are you, and you just had to post an obnoxious comment basically gloating and reveling in people's misery. That might sound a bit dramatic, but just read through the posts directly before your first comment on that thread. Maybe that means nothing to you since you hated Dicky from day one. But imagine if Halloran got yanked off the air, or if KROQ put Indie out of business altogether, as they have with so many other radio stations over the years. I'm sure you'd react the same.
So there is no need to try avoiding blame or passing the buck. The "I'm right and everyone else is wrong" excuse isn't going to work any more. The issue with you lies squarely with YOU. For someone who flaunts around their supposed intelligence and greatness, I've never met anyone that was so notoriously inept at communicating and dealing with people.
Kevin, I'm not "avoiding blame or passing the buck." I acknowledge completely and totally that everyone was grieving and I didn't share in that grief. Was I wrong to speak up when everyone wanted to vent their pro-Dicky sentiments? Perhaps I was being insensitive. I'll own that.
And I'm hardly smug. For months, everyone's beaten me into a pulp because I didn't like Dicky, so I kept quiet. Didn't say half the stuff I was thinking about him. And even in this moment, I only said one brief thing. I could have said a lot more. To me, I was being somewhat respectful, given the situation.
I certainly wasn't then, nor am I now "gloating". I actually feel sad for Dicky and for those who miss him.
Since then, I've been torn up one side and down the other. Ripped apart viciously, more vicious than I've ever spoken about ANYONE in here. And still have said nothing in response. Because, I, like Chris, know the secret agendas at work here.
All that really matters to me is that there is a new day at Indie. The rest of all this is just words.
And, frankly, if you have an issue with me, I'd rather you say it. I don't shy away from discussion.
"things would have remained the same"? The crew in here has disliked me for a LONG time simply because of my feelings for Dicky. There is absolutely no changing that, whether I say something or not. I'm sure of that.
But trust me when I tell you that for just as many that seem to hate me in here, there are others who read this board who share my sentiments. Who else is speaking for them?
Loving ALL of Indie's shows, especially the guys they've been having in the morning!
