As the season starts it is going to get exciting and busy around here... so here are a few things I would like the community to keep in mind:
- 1. The site is growing and there are LOTS... of new members. Please be cool to new members and let them get to enjoy the place. IF they are idiots or act bad, their comeuppance will come up pretty quickly.
- 2. There really is no reason to have your emails be public on your profile and the feature can be easily edited. We get lots of trolls when the season starts and our high visibility with the national media is only going to increase. These days it is just common sense to keep your email address away from strangers and don't EVER have a password involving the Angels that might be easy for a hacker to guess (I changed "Salmon15" just last month)...
- 3. We are not a site who spends every other post bragging about how great and bigshot our blog is (we don't have to), SO... thanks for being loyal but we really don't need people posting about how terrible any other fansites are. We're the #1 Angels blog, we don't have in-house counting that can be manipulated, our blog's independent sitemeter (the green box in the lower right corner of the homepage) says it all, so we don't have to.
- 4. The rules for the site are in the right sidebar, feel free to remind people of them, this community is welcome to self-police, just don't go Rampart on anyone. You can always email me (also in right sidebar) if something here is freaking you out. If it doesn't seem right, it probably isn't.
- 5. Thou shalt not kill.
This is a site for intelligent people so you either get my drift here or whatever...
THANKS. This is going to be a great season.
"this site is for intelligent people"
and Im not one of them……..just disregard my post in the Chuck Finley write up……lol

Should we just get it out of the way
and ban me now?
PhiSlamma - March 27, 2009

norcaliangelsfan - March 27, 2009
nice...
I’m looking forward to another great season with HH

...except for certain August game threads when we are yanking the Spankees...
…or spanking the Yankees…

We can't use an extra F-Bomb
for the Stockinged Ones?

Thou shalt not kill?!
Wow, this site USED to be fun!
thrill000 - March 27, 2009
Its all fun and games untill...
gorams77 - March 27, 2009
the jury ruled by "kill" he meant murder. Killing's OK.
…resume normal activities…
sothball - March 27, 2009
And concerning the public email...
I just took mine down.
I actually had an A’s fan email me, giving me shit, after I posted here that I thought the A’s would get swept in the 2006 playoffs (yes I was talking out of my ass).
He then emailed me again apologizing after Detroit swept them.
thrill000 - March 27, 2009
I list an alternate e-mail in public profiles for that reason
I’m more careful with my main e-mail, but have a secondary e-mail address on the web for spam.
I do check the one in my profile, but I don’t leave it up all day like I do my main one.
gilbert - March 27, 2009
I can't wait for another season at HH. I've been working on some test shots for a new semi-naked, pro-Angels photo.
Mayheminthehood - March 27, 2009
My eyes have yet to recover from LAST season...
Stirrups - March 27, 2009
I just can't wait for Switch Hit part 2
Mayheminthehood - March 27, 2009
I think we all agree. That shall be epic.
Stirrups - March 27, 2009
The googles... they do NOTHING!!!
red floyd - March 27, 2009
My all friends an I
are NOT study every picture of this guy.
red floyd - March 27, 2009
I not most luminous?
Mayheminthehood - March 27, 2009
"Test" as is short for tes...oh, forget it.
sothball - March 27, 2009
i cant wait
that picture from last season with the Hulk hands…. Awesome!
wallispdub1 - March 27, 2009
should we all be conservative to the extreme where we all where pilgrim clothes for a more purist look factor?
Halofanatic - March 27, 2009
please make pilgrim unis for us all Rev. Bonnetts with a halo for the girls and so forth.
Halofanatic - March 27, 2009
Very distracted by the mighty Orange in the tourney
but, i cant wait for the season to start on the day Syracuse wins the championship, paving the way for the Angels to win the series and increase the champagne sales in Old Forge, NY dramaticly!!
adirondackangelfan - March 27, 2009
Very distracted by the lack of UCLA in the tourney
Now my bracket is all busted to hell, and the only thing keeping me going is the up coming baseball season. Here’s to the Halos winning the series increasing the sales of 40 oz. in the I.E.
halofolife - March 27, 2009
I'm just pissed off
at Duke and Memphis for messing me up. Those guys just can’t do ANYTHING right.
red floyd - March 27, 2009
I'm pissed off at myself.
I totally clustered the user interface and did not complete my brackets. I though I did, but I was wrong. Idiot me.
Then, I thought that I needed to find the One Big Upset and had it nailed, but then kept going back and adding one more upset, one more upset, one more upset. I filled out my brackets too soon and could not leave well enough, alone. Doubly idiotic.
Now I just track my results and think about what might have been. I cannot look away. Triply idiotic.
Stirrups - March 27, 2009
What no spring training play-offs???
Good thing there’s no playoffs in spring training or the Ankles would be dropped in the first round (as usual). Looks like they’re hanging around with the Yankees too much lately and catching they’re bad habits!
Sorry Cali fans. Oakland is going to end your string of 1st round eliminations this year, because your run is all over. Not giving greedy Teixeira what he wanted will seal your fate for 2009. Plus no Frankie……your doomed for sure!
I guess 100 wins just doesn’t mean so much when you play in a weak division. No Eye of the Tiger
RSNation - March 27, 2009
What a tool
red floyd - March 27, 2009
A tool can be useful once in a while...
whereas this comment is just completely useless.
Downing Rules - March 27, 2009
very useful
SEE FOLKS… Do you want this guy emailing you his crap?
Rev Halofan - March 27, 2009
I assume you refer to RSNation… although there are several on this board who may be offended by me! ;)
Downing Rules - March 27, 2009
You created a profile just to post here?
And you aren’t even a member of that ‘Monster’ blog-thingie?
You’re a tribute to the “Nation,” sir. Thank you for making my day.
Zoe Necrosis - March 27, 2009
Link found at "3 Days" re: Oakland threat...
NBC Sports says:
But the notion held earlier this spring that a weakened Angels roster could be challenged by Billy Beane’s contend-now machinations in Oakland gradually is fading. Rest assured, the AL West still will belong to the Angels.

Re: Housecleaning…
do you do windows, Rev? I could use some housecleaning.
Downing Rules - March 27, 2009
In one of those French maid costumes, perhaps?
Big Easy Halofan - March 27, 2009
Get a photo and enter in an HH competition with Mayhem...
sothball - March 27, 2009
Ewwwwww
Now I have to go take a shower to get the filth of that mental image scrubbed away
red floyd - March 27, 2009
housecleaning
my cleaning lady could kick the shit out of 95% of the guys on this site. She brings her sister along to do the laundry and the sister cold take on half of youz. And missus Halofan took all those judo classes, so bring it on, bring it on, I don’t put on the maid outfit until all three of my bodyguards have been pinned!
Rev Halofan - March 27, 2009
Looks like somebody's gonna have to go Del Ninja on those bodyguards
Big Easy Halofan - March 27, 2009
The cleaning team in action...
sothball - March 27, 2009
Damn! I'm sure they're tough on stains too!
Lump me in with the 95%
Big Easy Halofan - March 27, 2009
They used to offer pet grooming services...
…but they kept losing puppies.
sothball - March 27, 2009
That's classic!
Good one

Supposed to be in reply to soth's pet grooming services link
Big Easy Halofan - March 27, 2009
Back a few months ago, I recall you had screwed-up your knee.
How’s it coming along?
sothball - March 27, 2009
Doing better now
Not sure if it was a strain or a mild tear, but I’m back to full activity. It even held up on a few black diamonds over Christmas vacation.
I owe the rapid recovery to an intensive regimen of what I believe to be vitamin B-12 injections that my seedy cousin procured on a visit to the Dominican Republic…
Big Easy Halofan - March 30, 2009
Whatever works! Glad to hear it it's healed.
I wish I could still ski…I had surgery 6 years ago. Cartilage is gone. I now have bone on bone. Not good. I can walk OK, and straignt ahead running is OK.
Any twisting motion guarantees pain & swelling.
sothball - March 30, 2009
is tough love allowed?
i remember when i first joined this site i was “afraid” of the allusive rev and his snide comments.
wallispdub1 - March 27, 2009
Rev is all growl and no bite
but don’t tell him I said so
ladybug - March 30, 2009
He doesn't need to bite. He has a cleaning team.
sothball - March 30, 2009
yeah
that was like 3 years agoish i have since learned about the rev.
wallispdub1 - March 30, 2009
all growl?
all scowl.
Where did Kristy-Joe go? I bit her. Gone.
Rev Halofan - March 30, 2009
Thank god.
hauldog - March 30, 2009
I thought all growl
would be better than saying a half-man, half-maniacal screaming psychotic barbarian.
xxooxo
ladybug - March 30, 2009
they make medical records digital and a month later people are publishing my diagnosis online….
Rev Halofan - March 30, 2009
