He donated after I banned him... that's what professionals do, after they're punished for their behaviour they slip the officer a little cash.Hope you're paying attention wannabe designers. There's a section on the blog for Comments.Please, please, please Chris.Just a small note.Maybe even just a link to the Donations thread. i was tempted too, but he could be counted on someone getting heated from reading that column to jump to the board's defense with a vulger responce to validate his arguement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBoyer Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I tried to post a comment about this fact as a response to his Blog, but I was politely informed that all comments are subject to approval.Oh well. He'll prevent that from ever seeing the light of day, but at least maybe he will see what a sourpuss he is.EDIT: Jeez, within the three minutes it took me to type this up, people jumped all over it!

Fred T. Jane Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 /looks at the mounds of tests he just graded...Since when are English/History teachers wannabe designers? I feel complimented... [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

gosioux76 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I've been a professional journalist for almost 10 years. I have no desire to become a sports designer. And I hope Mr. O'Grady, based on his blog, has no aspirations to become a professional writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 what was his username?

Wait a minute, bricknivy/meangreen is/was a grown man in a design firm?Judging by the content of his posts, I seriusly thought he was a teenager with little to no sense in his head. The type who tries to make some absurd, outlandish point, and when you try to counter him, shoots back with "la la la I can't hear you" and makes himself even more of a fool in the process.See the "White Sox Sunday Alt" thread for a prime example of what I'm talking about. If this guy is anything like his posts in his professional life, I can't help but wonder how on earth he remains gainfully employed.Oh, and as for me: Traffic reporter. Jersey freak. Barely functional at MS Paint and can somewhat draw stick figures. Wannabe designer? Hardly.

brooksdiamond Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I just read that load of venom from Tom O'Grady. All I can say from that letter and from hiscontributions to this site is that he's a pompous ass. He seems to act as if he invented the logo.The fact that he would take the time to find this site and agonize over it tells me that he has fartoo much time on his hands, or should I say hand. It must be hard to meet deadlines when you only have your left hand available because your right hand is occupied. Come on! Only a prickwould lash out like that. Is Tom grumpy because not enough people are meeting his minimumprice of $25,000.00! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gueman Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 What an ASS! Am I a professional. Nope! Do I want to be? Nope! For me this is a hobby, hell I'm 38 it lets my creative juces flow and helps with the stress of being a father of two. I also view it as an art form and I like to see what others make, and how they think. Oh and what ever your name is...you need a B**W J*B really bad!

Gary Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 well it just shows when a man can't get his dessert he must not want to eat it in front of everyone else. Guy has problems and has a problem that he is not better than everyone else. If he had a problem, he could of dealt it with us and not go off to a blog and whine whine whine, also I think we can add Psychlone(joined January 5, 2006 and not one post) to the list of names as well to bricknivy, meangreen and Drop Shadow.

Phil Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Mr. O'Grady continues to plumb the depths of classlessness.How this man has the social skills to manage an organization is beyond me.What he's displaying here is classic third grade behaviour. His attitude led him to be shunned from this community, and so he retaliates by 1) establishing his own similarly themed community, and 2) bad-mouthing the other community and spreading half-truths and fabrications.Mr. O'Grady, a panel of 10 independent, responsible, and rational members all decided that you were a blight on this community and needed to be removed. Although you may find it surprising that this community did not find your unique mix of condescension, self-promotion, and disrespect endearing, the truth of the matter is this:When you're in a group of 3 people, and two people say you're the problem, chances are they're right.You, sir, were in a group of thousands of people, and the appointed governance of that group unanimously decided you were the problem.Time to take a good long hard look in the mirror, Tom, and decide whether you want to keep rationalizing away all the "gen-X loghead" detractors, or are ready to admit that this diverse group of intelligent human beings may actually have had a legitimate issue with your behaviour.
