Looks like Scott did a background check on Jeff. Discomfit, anyone?

This came in approximately 17-18 private e-mails I received from different people who know what Jeff does and couldn't believe he was attacking me for cockfighting with the "crowd" he defends! I knew nothing about Jeff until earlier today from different e-mails.

Looks like you need to lay off the weed. You claim you have never protected advertisers - Hell, just a few days ago you were on here protecting Mastro and locking a thread! Surely you do not think most people are dumb enough to believe what you say????

I don't even know how to respond to that......except to say you owe me a new Irony Meter.

The Mastro thread was 399 posts before I locked it. The last 100 posts or so were completely off topic. That was protecting them? All I questioned was why we were rehashing an old news story and nothing had come up in a year an nothing new. I am sure you don't understand my reasoning as the clucking is still sounding in your head... How about responding to my comments about your hypocrisy? Also, the reason I don't let personal emails on this board is for the exact reason you posted mine on your board. You manipulated my emails to you and posted what you wanted. You are a thief, liar, hypocrit and animal killer.....I am very surprised that a few decent people even associate with you. You are pathetic at best....at worst...I won't mention it.

Your last post was bull****. You can't gain credibility, if that's what you want, by stuff like that.

I've read this thread, read how things have changed since Leon took over, and just don't see it. I was there on the Full Count board too. To my recollection, Full Count took it down, at least in part, because of crap like this.

I don't know why you and Leon are sideways. Nor do I care. Whatever your beef is, you may be right, he may be right, or you may both be right depending on the issue.

Whatever the situation is, the fact remains that you have your own chatboard and you came over to this one. Leon didn't go to yours and call you a piece of **** because you fought chickens. If you want to shoot at him, you had damn well better come up with something that happened more recently than 25 years ago. That's just ridiculous.

I don't always agree with what Leon says or does. But I am damn sure glad that he says and does it, because otherwise this board wouldn't exist. BTW, neither would yours. Did you ever think of that? Your board exists precisely because you disagreed with how Leon was running this one. At least indirectly, you owe the existence of your board to Leon. How ironic.

To date, you and me haven't been sideways. I think your last post was complete bs though. I hope that you are man enough to apologize for what I think was a completely chicken**** post. If not, then I don't think you have much room to call anyone out anymore.

Scott, that I represent people charged with crimes should not be equated with someone who tortures animals for fun. Again, I'll repeat: I am not a criminal. I represent people in criminal cases. I do not believe that people who are convicted of crimes should avoid punishment.

And not only are you an atrocity for torturing animals but a liar as well. Somehow I can't imagine that 17 or 18 people actually support you. Hell, you can't even get 17 or 18 posts on your board in a week.

What Jeff is trying to say is that he despises those who engage in cockfighting. The activity sickens him to no end. That said, if someone is arrested for cockfighting, he will gladly represent them. But not for the money, for the principle.

smoke pot. I'm also thinking of giving it up to smoke chickens.
Hey Ma! Look at me! I'm in a really ridiculous baseballess thread and I can't get out!

(edited to add ALLEGEDLY I think I might - this is a tough crowd that never forgets......)

Mark M, does it make you feel good to attack me as I take a stand against harming animals? Or are you just so frustrated because you consider yourself such a tax star that you actually incorporated it into your email address -- and yet you remain a 40 year old associate/bag carrier at your law firm?

The fact is, I would never represent someone who I believed was guilty of harming animals. Because I am my own boss I get to pick and choose the cases I take. Again, your time is better spent billing hours than looking for an opportunity to bash me once a week. Although at your rate both routes clearly lead to nowhere.

edited a last name out...in fairness

I have personally never harmed a chicken. The chickens kill one another. So, to call me an animal killer is totally outrageous and an outright lie.

Kenny, as far as I know, you mean well in your post. I might go over the lines in my posts and will admit that. However, you cannot seriously thow stones at only me if you have read some of Leon's, Jeff's and Dan's posts towards me. You are correct - you and I have never been "sideways" or whatever you state. In fact, I can't even place you off the top of my head. Again, it is simply not right to ask me to apologize, when the people I was referring to are making comments much worse about me. If I believe in something, I will stand up for it. If I believe I am right, I certainly will not apologize for any comments I made in my defense. Sorry. Scott

I didn't kill that man. The bullet killed him. So to call me a killer is an outright lie.

--And you accuse Leon of smoking pot?

Again, quit distorting facts. If an animal kills another animal, it is certainly not a person's fault. If a zoo keeper lets a tiger loose and that tiger kills another animal, did the zoo keeper actually kill the animal? You can try to lie and distort all you want. Like I stated, the many e-mails I have received since early this morning seem correct about you. No wonder you get along well with Leon - either of you would do anything for $$$! You have NO MORALS. Yet, you find fault with anyone who opposes you, Leon, Mastro or any of the other clique here at Net 54? Just look at your belittling of Mark. Mark has more integrity in his little finger than you have in your entire body Jeff!

Well Jeff, I stand mistaken. You defend people who have committed violent crimes against humans but not against chickens.

I'm flattered by your continued observations about my career. Jeff, I think you love me. Why don't you explain to the nonlawyers here that big firm bag carriers make more than you do?

Leon, you are living in a fantasy land if you think that me, Jim and Scott are the sole source of problems on this board. All you have to do is go back to when you banned me and I did stop posting for about 6 months. Scott didn't post during that time either. The only person left was Jim.

You mean to tell me that Jim single handedly turned this board upside-down during that time? No way. It takes two to tango and there are plenty of other people that contribute to the disharmony, but you don't tell them to go away or shut up because they are either your friends or you like what they have to say. If anyone opposes you, then they are a problem in your mind. This part of the hypocrisy that I accuse you of.

As for some threads on our board that were parked out of site for awhile, they are now back on the board. You seem to have forgotten to mention that part. The other thing you didn't mention is that almost all those posts that were hidden were posts made be me or Scott. Geez, we actually censored ourselves. Yup, we are so horrible and hypocritical that we will censor ourselves over there. The only person that we've have censored over there is BcD. Go figure.

You may let a thread not flattering to Mastro run for a little bit, but your ultimate response is to lock it rather than let it go it's natural course. If people want to talk about, then let them. But then again you are the dictator and you dictate what is acceptable to talk about. Obviously, saying bad things about Mastro, or any of your friends is not allowed.

And once again, you let a personal attack by Jeff slide. If you want point fingers at a drama starter around here, there is a perfect target for you. Reign him in and lot of your problems go away. Remember, it takes two to cause drama.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.

SO here is how we will finish this idiotic thread. Jay or Scott....if either of you bring anymore negativity to this board you will be banned. If you only participate negatively in threads you will be banned. This is a board about the hobby and hopefully collecting cards with friends. This is not a threat....I have a duty to the board and if something is detrimental to the welfare of it I will do whatever I need to, to fix it. Thanks for participating...Please don't think this is an idle threat. It's not meant to be a threat. I am doing what I was chosen to do...have a good day.
