Ehhhhh. I'm leery of making a call here -- I clearly disagree pretty sharply with this guy, and I don't want that personal bias getting in the way.
A sampling of his recent posts/partial posts (focusing on tone):

Steve Eicherson, Shawn Pederhorst -- same difference. Both Harvey's henchmen.

If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

Oh yeah. Even a trained monkey. I forgot.

And yes, there is still a chance for JS to do just that. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a Callahan/Ryan Goodman situation. But since that would be one more notch in the Callahan 2.0 belt, it will probably happen.

Sub500 has a long track record showing he is simply not a very good coach.

I thought Sub500 seemed a lot more relaxed and a lot more cogent in this presser than the last couple. I think he's getting into his comfort zone now that expectations have fallen.

(Again -- I'm not even sure what this means. Both times it was the entire response.)

No. Sub500 made it clear in the postgame presser that he didn't even consider a pass on 3rd and 7. He wanted them to use their last timeout.

It's not an either/or proposition. I can show you lots of hardcore Sub500 sunshine pumpers who turn in to crybabies when faced wth legitimate criticism of Sub500.

And there we have it. Tommy Armstrong=Joe Dailey. The "Callahan 2.0" moniker gets more accurate each week.

Well, it only took Riley six games to match Bo's total in the "Losing a 4th Quarter Lead" category.

Benning is reaching for answers. Sub500 is not a good coach.

That's real classy. Throw the student athletes under the bus in a bizarre failed attempt to prop up the loser millionaire that makes them look wrose than they are. You've been Rileyswaggled.
It seems to me that he could have discussion to offer if he wasn't so caught up in his anger. His tone is entirely (and has kind of always been) about tweaking people who like Riley. There's stuff that comes back his way from other posters, and they do get warned about that, too ... but one is taking exception and taking the bait, and the other is offering the bait as a M.O.
He has such an extensive record of that M.O., I kind of think a long break might be warranted. 2 weeks, 3 weeks? Then if he comes back and that continues (it'd be frankly shocking to me if it didn't), something permanent. If he takes his ball and goes home on his own, that's okay with me. I think or would like to believe he tries to conduct himself reasonably, but he's too angry to follow through. A little bit of the same deal with Polo, on the other side of the fence; probably a good dude, couldn't keep himself from vomiting his bitter attitude all over the place.
Thoughts?
