Dire times for the Confederacy and maybe dire times for Oasis' peace of mind: he seemed increasingly irritated at several trends among posts here. Ancient history, but as my life in the South has revealed over and over, the past lives and old grievances don't necessarily die.
As for Lurck's complaint, not sure which of, like, 9 posts per year on Bear Insiders got under his skin. Not that the number matters. Any post by any Stanford fan is considered by most Cyberbe.ars. as a brazen act of troll-ery. Despite the appeal of a supposedly open board exchange of ideas, they does love their hermetically sealed echo chamber. Of course, Lurck is not your average Cyberbe.ar. If he's growling, it's worth paying attention. The only vaguely "meany" comment I can recall was to note that we'd heard their bold proclamations about impending Kal women's hoops domination before. But maybe I was meaner somewhere else.
