Thanks for having my back TJ. I don’t think Greg dislikes me personally, but for some reason he does like to work in digs at me or WF. I’m not sure why cause I post a lot less here then I have in past years and I have not taken any shots at any mountain or anyone.

Alot of you guys take shots at TJ. I know him to be a good guy, he's a friend of mine and he is one hell of a good skier.

You got hit with some of the shrapnel form the grenades tossed at TJF and I do apologize. You're a good guy HPD and I appreciate the topics you come up with here. As I've said before you come up with better thread ideas than anyone else. Prior to this, I don't know where I've taken any other shots at Whiteface though, and in this instance it was in response to TJF's insistence that the Whiteface comp is clearly above the BMMC or Sundown comp. He tried to sell the WC event on Wilderness as the local's event which clearly is not the case. But I expect nothing less from iMuscle.

TJF doesn't like me because of the whole FHW and crew thing that went down like 2+ years ago. You know better than anybody those guys were simply relentless hammering me. I certainly never started all that. I just tried to set up a board for you guys the best I knew how using AZ as model. In the end, it still wasn't good enough for ORDA despite the structure and moderation since they recently pulled their affiliation with the site. TJF and company might not see that as important, but I think it is. If we let the board go in the direction they wanted, they never would have supported it for as long as they did.

So TJF is still bitter and insists on taking little jabs at me so I'll gladly take shots back. But don't play him up as being a victim. He's among a small group here that just loves to take jabs at people and then when they get jabbed back, they say, "you're too thinned skinned." And I don't care if he's the best skier at Whiteface, he's still a douche.

Just gotta take the high road.

Sometimes there is no need to get even, just sit back and watch them make asses of themselves.... Why work when you don't have to..

This is hilarious coming from you of all people. Do you even read what you post? :lol:

Thanks for the laugh this morning. I needed it! :lol:

Trying to mind my own biz here, but sometimes I can't :wink:


You make TJ out to be the bad guy in all of this, and that's fine you can do whatever you want. But I will say this, from what I can tell the "shots" he takes are at a very select few and not the masses as you and a few others try to make seem.......just sayin'

And he certainly doesn't get any more than he gives.......just sayin'

Maybe he's a good guy in real life but he likes to play an internet tough guy on AZ.

Exactly---nothing wrong with returning a well hit serve, would think that's to be expected.

And my shots have always been in response to shots fired. I've never come after him first, and in some cases, I've simply ignored him.

Guess I don't see the "tough guy thing"----certainly some trash talkin' but no bodily harm threats that I can see. It's ball bustin' anyway---who cares :roll:

Not aruing that---simply trying to point out that he's not here to "get after" everyone like you try to make it seem, just a couple, and, imo he's contributed alot to the site.

I think there's a distinction to be made here. I bust guy's balls here all the time, but they are guys I consider friends offline too. Yeah, I rib HPD from time to time, but it's because I've met him in person and skied with him a few times. I wouldn't say we're good friends or anything, but we're friendly and I would be happy to ski with him anytime and have him down for the Sundown comp. I'll buy the first beer afterward.

I don't know TJF from Adam and if I had to make an assumption as to what he's like in person based on his internet persona, it's not a positive one. I think insisting on acting tough online is the result of some sort of character flaw so even if he's seems like the nicest guy in the world in real life, there's still something weird going on. I don't know.....I just can't relate to that. Maybe it's a New York thing.... :razz: Something in that ADK water? ;)

You can like me or not like me, but there are definitely no surprises.

Never said he hasn't. We're probably more alike than either of us would admit.

That's prolly soooo true in most cases that it would be scary to find out

I alos think it's a "guy" thing----hell I remeber being in college having an all out brawl start in some bar, then 20 min later the same 2 dudes beating the bageezus out of each other drinking a beer together.

You're also correct about the NY thing---we are strange but that's part of why people love us. 8)

I can only assume you were bullied when you were little. You act like a sally. Grow a sack. Was that internet tough guy personification? If so WAAA TJ picked on me

Actually, I was pretty well liked growing up because I'm generally a nice person. For a guy with a world class mountain 10 miles from your home, you're pretty angry.

But you're right, this is silly. You are who you are. Enjoy the rest of your ski season.

I am calling BS on this. I will use this thread as an example for anyone who wants to go back to the beginning and read through it. At the end of the day I enjoy my daily dose of sallieisms so keep them comming.
PS why dont you get some more smiley faces.

iMuscle, if anyone has a fragile complex resultant from possible bullying as a kid, it's YOU. You are the poster child for the internet tough guy. A sally is someone like yourself hiding behind a computer screen.

If you're not a dick in real life, it's certainly hard to tell by the way you act here. Maybe you should come to the Sugarloaf Alpinezone Summit and clear things up if indeed you are just 'misunderstood'.
