Lol, he posted his drivel just a few days ago on the JJ thread. Did he? I was told by another mod that he had been banned months ago. I'll have to look into it when I get home.

Yes yes yes. Mr. Burgundy's comments about how some posters here must have been getting so excited about seeing bad play and being able come here and blast the team, Rocky, program, etc. Glad we totally called it on the other board, predicting exactly how folks here were going to react to anything less than 70-0. It wasn't the score and you know it. It was the inability of the offense to outplay a vastly inferior team from two levels below us. THAT is what a lot of people are upset about. One touchdown against an FCS Non Scholarship team is pathetic. It is total failure. We should have been able to do what Chuck Noll did in the 70's - run over your opponent. Noll said that he wasn't going to try to trick his opponents with tricky offensive play calling - he was just going to run the plays he wanted to run and smash the defense. And that's largely what he did. Against NFL defenses. USD is hardly an NFL defense. They aren't even full blown FCS! The score was irrelevant. It was how we played that counted, and our offense played poorly against a much lower division team. Oh Great another new football year and another football season full of post of you reminding us that you don't like Rocky Long. Like last year and the years before WE GET IT! No matter what this team does as long as Long is at the helm your not happy. Holy $#!+... By the way regarding the offense vs. San Diego did anybody think that we played vanilla because there was NO reason to show our hand for the more important upcoming game vs Cal. ...and once again WE KNOW YOU HATE ROCKY Erik. Please share with us why you hate him... Did he not bro hug you the first time you meet or what?

Isn't it interesting, perhaps even illuminating, that the people who are the most critical of me are the ones who are engaged in the rude, offensive behavior. Namecalling, insults, mocking - general boorish behavior that we all would scold our children for displaying.
I gladly admit when I'm wrong and apologize when warranted. I work to find compromise solutions whenever possible. Can any of the angry horde say the same?
You're either part of the solution or you're part of the problem. So far on this thread I'm reading few solutions...
But I welcome any disgruntled Aztec Mesa member to post any concerns they have here or send them by PM. I will be respectful and take your points seriously.

To be fair to Steve, he did not start that thread. Somebody who probably has never been to our board before noticed that you, the moderator were in full meltdown mode and thought it was strange. No, Steve didn't start the thread, but he sure took full advantage to go into full vendetta mode asap. Meltdown? Maybe a little. That game was infuriatingly frustrating from an offensive perspective. If that were against an FBS team it would be concerning, but against an FCS Non-Scholarship team? Even if we told them what play we were going to run every time we still should have had the size, strength, speed, and skill advantages over them that would have allowed us to move the ball anyway. I expected domination on both sides of the ball. The domination when we were on offense was by USD's defense. Vanilla play calling or not we should have been able to move the ball and not have 6 three and outs and only 1 offensive TD. Since this thread is somewhat pertinent in regards to this week's game I think it can remain here (Aztec Athletics board) for now as long as the topic remains at least tangentially SDSU VS Cal, the game, the forums, etc. A great example why mods get additional attention from other blogs and need to be responsible in their posts... Didn't someone say that yesterday?

I warned you yesterday that you, as a mod needed to be more responsible in your position.

I will be respectful and take your points seriously. Got a mirror? Absolutely. A big one. I haven't seen any posts from me insulting other board members or engaging in namecalling when I didn't like what they posted. Have you? If you want to post or PM something constructive I'll be glad to discuss any issue with you. Like I've said many times, I'm not perfect - I make mistakes just like anyone else. So, again, if you have something constructive to go over I'll be glad to discuss it. I respond to all my PM's when I'm on the board. And I don't engage in namecalling or insults.

Sometimes some people repeat their same criticisms repeatedly ad nauseam, as if they have to respond to anyone saying anything positive. That is a big part of the Aztec Mesa meltdown tradition... Why I only post here for tailgate info and read pm's. /Lurk mode reactivated It's funny, no one complains about the ad nauseum excuse making. I suppose, "Wait until next year," should be the SDSU Football motto... My issue is that next year never comes. It's always a year away. We got past the Tollner/Craft/ChuckLong debacle (always hearing about, "Next year," being the breakout year), but then once we had that breakout year we once again got stuck in place before sliding backwards ever so slightly. The program has not grown and that is incredibly frustrating - especially when you see preivously lesser programs like Utah State pass us by. But, again, you have no problem with excuses being posted over and over (and they are), but complain about the posts holding the coaching staff accountable for their failures. That is a double standard. I appreciate your contributions over the years (your posts have been exceptional more often than not), but your view on this matter is entirely one sided. Exaggerated sense of self much Mr. Admin??

Actually, yes. Everyone has a right to their opinion - not just the ones you agree with. If you still have a problem with this moderation philosophy (no personal attacks or criticisms of other board members, including mods) then feel free to share your thoughts on the Feedback sub-forum ( aztecmesa.proboards.com/board/1/feedback-announcements-administration-help ). We are actually VERY responsive to feedback on that forum and by PM. You would be pleasantly surprised. Why was honey badger allowed to post his vile about JJ so long despite numerous "reports to mod?" You have to PM the mods directly, as they've said in the past the "report post" function doesn't work properly. That was part of the reason for the delay on THB's first banning. I don't know what the hold up is this time.

I haven't read it yet. But why would you even go there? Did you make comments toward him or just talk about the game? Well, since I was the subject of the thread I wanted to put it in context. Steve took the opportunity to go into full vendetta mode and started acting like he was on his regular board. As I noted above, I just apologized for his behavior and refused to engage him in the same kind of behavior. That isn't the appropriate venue for Steve to lay out his point by point grievances, but nothing stops Steve. Nothing M.A.D. about it. A lot of humor was involved beyond the apologies. Aztec William was fairly dignified as a senior fan and board member. He discussed Aztec Athletics, and even SDSU academics! Nothing embarrassing from anyone on this board. Not even remotely close. They've got some really good people there, and they've been really cool about the whole thing. They're starting to find Steve to be humorous (just not intentionally). Talk about not letting it go! Why do you feel the need to defend yourself to everyone, including a board filled with people who don't know you and don't care! Then you come here and defend yourself. Are you going to do this for every team we play? Just log out, turn off your computer and find something else to do. This obviously isn't the 1st time there have been big issues. If you can't handle the responsibility of being a mod and representative of SDSU, then you need to hand your keys to someone else.

I just got done reading it. I still stand by my assessment. Two things you dont feed - trolls and Aztec Steve. That guy pops up all over the place on message boards and can come off as a bit crazy. Apparently, one shouldn't feed others as well. Discretion is the better part of valor. The thread on the Bear board was DEAD, at two pages, until someone jumped in. It is now seven pages. The behavior was at best unnecessary and at worst embarrassing. Unfortunately, I must tend toward the latter because it is also consistent with what was called out in the original post in that thread - a negative commentary by a Cal poster on the post meltdown on this board by one of this board's moderators concerning the USD game. NOTE: This is not a personal attack, instead it is simply a specific commentary on specific behavior and posts.

Also, the excuse of, well, my emotions got the best of me doesn't fly if you know the game. Especially when they put on paper, so to speak.
People may think these things, but to actually post them tells me the individual doesn't know the game. Period.

I get it that you've had it with Rocky, and I'm almost there, but don't make yourself, (as the mod) and this board, look bad in doing so.

The mod is NOT a representative of SDSU anymore than any or all the posters, like them or not. This Board, like all others, is NOT affiliated officially with State. He has a right to posting his opinions agree or disagree. It's his board. If you are giving him the suggestion to back away from the computer after a bad loss then that suggestion could be made to anybody who melts down. Just my take
