Mr. C or Mr. T?

It appears that the new TSN writer has some thin skin.
Over on Any Given Strike, someone asked why we haven't seen any new TSN postings and I responded, "Their new writer is probably trying (for the umpteenth time) to rewrite his first article without a SoCon bias." with a wink.
Well, my, "rep" page was soon hit with a visit from a tough talking Mr. C.
No News from The Sports...

What a jerk. You are clueless.
I responded to that unprofessional "attack" (ouch, he hurt my feelings) by posting his rant and responding (below). Guess what? My post got deleted.
It seems as though some folks over there want people to think the AGStrike club mods and admins are professional and courtious, yet a select few will hurl insults through their secret points club and then delete any reference to them. Cowards and hypocrites.

I take back the wink. Mr. C called me a jerk and clueless.
Ooooops! I may have broken some privacy rule about "secret" Bingo point personal attacks.
Good lord, I thought sports writers had to have thicker skin. I'm sure TSN will approve of their writers responding to jokes/criticism on a message board in such a professional manner. Nothing says increased revenue as much as a quick insult finger.
I have enjoyed and respected TSN for several years, but I think that might reconsider it as a source for football news.
I have no time for another washed up Howard Eskin."
