I will mention that is surprising who came up with, and commented on what I have to believe was some kind of reference to my old wrestling promo pictures.... Ahh, come on Big Mike. We were just bustin' your chops like old friends do sometimes. Truly sorry if you took it seriously. I deleted those few comments and edited out any other references. I will fill you in on what happened at nfl.com I'd love to hear your take on it all.

In all fairness, the message boards were already on their way out. Once they started trying to force everyone to link to a facebook account, the writing was on the wall. Message boards were too problematic. That's why both NFL & ESPN shut em' down.
That was back then. Imagine how impossible it would've been to moderate huge sites like those today, now with the whole Trump Syndrome folks.

"3am Eddie" - Wasn't sure if it was you or nflmb that got that nickname started, so I recently asked him. He said: "I used to say it's 3am, Eddie will be around soon and I'll have to delete a bunch of posts"

Said he'll be here tomorrow to set a few things straight about the whole story of NFL message boards shutting down, and that he didn't lose his job because of the trolls; the main office in NY had basically decided to lay everyone off around the same time.
He also brought up how Shalaby once claimed to have all of our IP's, lol. That dude was out of his gourd.
If anyone remembers right(cause I forgot), MB also just reminded me that even the mods didn't have our IP's. They could only punish us by deleting our original accounts, but couldn't really effectively ban or stop anyone from creating new ones. Hence all of the multiple accounts so many people once had. Never knew who the hell was who half the time.

All of the comments regarding Shalaby from users over on the PT Cruiser forum. I find them all hilarious! "If he's on drugs, he needs to stop taking them. If he isn't on drugs, he needs help. His posts were not those of a rational person." "Ohh cool, I'll do that....or I can always send my cousin "giuseppe" and make "Sarge" disappear because he's not that far from here, around Keyport NJ....and he can just dump him at the Hudson River ....LOL" "You may be right but he definitely has some mental issues, so we don't know when he is going to do that again. It's not normal for a school teacher and Army Sargent to behave like that. Maybe he was sent overseas and came back with some problems." "I'm probably the second most hated by him, and his reason for that is because I buy 'overly-expensive' audio equipment." "I spent 16 Months in the Marines in Vietnam - 4/68 - 8/69 - it does not give free license to be an asshole." Found this old post in the LOL Central thread. LAB showed me that Shalaby also belonged to a PT Cruiser forum, and he had everyone there wondering what the hell was wrong with him too. The above comments were copied and pasted from his PT Cruiser forum.
