I'm seriously not even going to get into this. My last post on this is that I'm the only mod in that group. The other mods have access to the forum. It will never be made public. And all of the mods had come to the conclusion yesterday long before all of this went down that Hootie was done.

It was a long and nasty exchange. With some really and I mean really horrible personal tragedy involved.

But, it had nothing to with Fan Duel or his inability to get along with others.

Nothing about hooties forum posts makes me think he'd be good at working collaboratively with others. At all...

He's very opinionated. Willing to defend his opinion to the death. And doesn't seem capable of budging an inch or ever conceding

If Brady won the next 3 Super Bowls, Hootie, would be in some thread defending Peyton.

Tom always had the better teams!
Neck injury cut Peyton's career short!
If Peyton had this Denver D when he was young he would have won a ton!
Look at this stat that says Peyton is the better pure passer!

Wait, so if I pay $50 I get access to this shit show?

Tell me more!

So you are saying Hootie was being typical Hootie?


Again no shocking info there.


I'm asking why ban the guy here? Number one and laughing at anyone who thought this would end well with Hootie having to cooperate with anyone in the situation.

BossChief brought it up in the forum. But Hootie dragged it, and all this other BS into the main forum. Which we all said couldn't happen.

Considering his history, I would imagine that "just being Hootie" is ground for a banning here.

Besides that, why did Hootie choose to create this thread at all?

I agree that its a LITTLE odd, but it's a group filled with 50 CPers, so it's definitely a group associated with CP if not officially sanctioned.

I'd expect it would be the same deal if someone went to the CP Facebook group and started posting pictures of bunnies getting raped by a squirrel or something.

We wish we wouldn't have seen it. No one should ever have read it.

I'm talking about the banning from here.

Thanks. That chain of events isn't surprising (and is what kept getting him banned for what I assume was the same issue years ago). Others would bring it up, and he just couldn't let it lie.

You really would have to be involved in this the last few weeks to understand it.

And we all basically donated $100 to have fun with this. Hootie turned it into a fucking train wreck and frankly killed the fun completely with his arrogant schizophrenic bullshit.

But the deal is, from the start we decided the venture would be run by group thought not by a single entity and we handled it accordingly.

My prediction about him getting banned had to do with his reaction to this happening which was clear as day last week he was going to occur.

You guys gave a 30 year old man with the maturity level of a 14 year old a modicum of authority over $4,900 worth of other people's money and things got ugly?

Jesus.
