@Ro
mark does have a good idea there, don’t think it will ever happen though.

@andrew
true it may have been a love tap, but still, the guy is hurting. im not sure what the intent is, but from an observers standpoint it does look like malice, especially when loren publicly insults him via twitter and calls him an old fool. either way, they should move on.

thanks for the comment and thanks for reading guys

Another thing to think about is just simple culture.

I agree with Mark, move it on.
