Pretty interesting read. Sounds similar to some posters on here.

That sucks. Why would you do that to someone you don't even know?

But it does make me laugh when the local idiot agrees with himself using one of his other user names.

some of it does sound true, but i haven't seen much posted on here that's what i would call "libelous."


the person who got it the worst was probably mattinctown, but he posted that story, so he had it coming.

Mean and dumb is a bad combination.
My favorite line from the article.

I fully expected to read something about Mike Clark when I opened this article up.

Yeah, I'm not familiar with those forums, but I've found that people who tend to post on newspaper forums and on places like Yahoo! Sports stories tend to not even remotely fake having a working brain.

Also, kinda ironic the chick's name is Sybil, considering how she created a bunch of accounts to agree with herself.
