WHAT HAPPEN TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH HERE

[Blind Squirrel]

john, in answer to your question, the post was deleted pior to being able to respond to "mike"
like i said i just stated the facts,sorry if it wasn't what some people wanted to hear.
mike says he knows the man but i bet he doesn't know him as well as he thinks.

1. Have the HB folks requested that you not provide answers now? If so, I encourage you to say so.

2. I know absolutely nothing about the org or the person you posted about. I am only interested in details about this situation because of the severity of the accusations and so that I can attempt to assess whether they have merit or if they are merely the words of someone who is just trying to injure another party. Every single coach in the history of sport at every level has detractors. Even the likes of John Wooden. So I view accusations against a coach that don't provide believable specifics as utterly pointless except for how they reflect on the person posting them anonymously on the internet. OTOH, verfiable details of misdeeds can be helpful/useful to others.

3. No matter where the HB folks draw the line there will be some who don't like it. IMO, they are doing a reasonable job thus far. I have no idea whose opinion (yours or mine) is closest to being right, if such an assessment could even be made.

I have come to the conclusion that Mike Lednovich is a big brown noser.

Hey Ace Hole I am not in any mood for you today so you can pack you sh$t and go too.
You are not held hostage here so if you don't like it, .

The board belongs to a couple guys and they run it how they want....wow
maybe you can run the board the way you want to

first off the only people who know the truth are the people directly involved.
any stament that was made was fact based only.
it was not to "slander "anyone,it was to say hey, we were there,we saw it, we lived it please
be careful.
we were warned ahead of time but ignored the advice,next time we will listen more carefully.
you just never know about people and there motives until sometimes a little to late.

Is it a problem for you to answer the questions that Mike posted? Or have you and I missed it? If your intent is to make people aware so that they can make informed decisions then you might want to provide actual information. Otherwise, I don't see what anyone could possibly deduce from what I saw posted which renders the thread completelely without value or merit.

As for freedom of speech and the role it plays on this site, common sense has seemed to carry the day. If you want to compare eteamz to HB WRT to free speech and the rest, you might want to check out most of the Texas threads in HB and compare them to the results of the eteamz policy that killed discussions on that site. You might also want to compare the increasing popularity of this site over the last 18 months as compared to eteamz' popularity as a place for discussion.

If your concern about freedom of speech on this site is serious, perhaps you can specify what the standards and restrictions should be. Your concern might result in improvements to HB, which the title of this thread suggests you would like to see.

If you elect not to be responsive to the above, I'm left thinking "you just never know about people and there [sic] motives."

Well stated and thought out. Kudos to you!!!
