Congrats to Mike Pegram

Congrats on his announced retirement. Mike has been a long time innovator in this space truly advancing not only the technology but the business of fan information, journalism and forum sharing. Rivals and now 247 are what they are in no small part because of Pioneer Mike and bazillions of IU fans that have/do follow each. I moved from the AOL and Netscape environments into Peegs in his earliest days. Met Mike only a couple of times at Peegs tailgates but stayed with him through Peegs then 247 until very recently.

The reigns are handed to RabJohns, and while not a fan of his, I wish him Mike Weaver and staff the best.

I see the day, when my hair's full gery, and I finally...disappear.

Colbert sure to be arrested for this

His team illegally enters House office building - allowed in by Democrat staffers. Obviously a surveillance mission - hanging around Boebert's office. Our democracy was hanging in the balance - I shudder to think what would have happened if the Capitol Police hadn't arrested them before they did real damage.

Pretty clear this was on direction from Colbert, since they are working for his show. There should be an investigation to find out if this was part of a deeper conspiracy.

I wonder how long they'll be in solitary confinement?

Trump riot developments

Some in the GOP/Trump camp continue to downplay and attempt to whitewash the pro-Trump riots of Jan 6. But I read a new article (linked below) on recent developments that I found interesting and thought I'd provide an update since the case has been evolving behind the scenes and there are elements that I was personally unaware of...

So arrests are up to around 440, with the FBI still rounding up new suspects, and the total is expected to exceed 500. On first glance, I would be inclined to assume that meant they were going after the lesser offenders in sort of a "mop up" mode. But in reality they are still looking for what they consider the most dangerous perps, esp those they believe assaulted LEOs (and Press).

In fact, out of the 440 arrested/charged, 60 people are charged with assaulting police. And while I knew a significant amount of cops were attacked, the update lists 140 officers from Capitol Police and DC Metro (combined) as injured. That is far more than I was personally aware of...

The FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for info leading to additional captures, so if anyone has any potential info on the whereabouts of a past poster or two feel free to DM it to me (LOL)...

Two additional issues that piqued my interest...Check out this statement from the FBI website, esp the part I bolded in red...

"The FBI is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying individuals who made unlawful entry into the U.S. Capitol building and committed various other alleged criminal violations, such as destruction of property, assaulting law enforcement personnel, targeting members of the media for assault, and other unlawful conduct, on January 6, 2021, in Washington, D.C.," the FBI says on its website."

When I read that I immediately thought of Trump rallies, and more specifically the vitriolic attacks and verbal assaults Trump continuously launched against media members who were (purposely) housed in a sort of bullpen at his rallies.
