Had a chance to meet Moose a number of times and even played golf with him a couple of times.

As Bees said, he was very different in person than on the board.  Wonderful man, very pleasant and engaging.

As bombastic and caustic as he could be, there were valid insights and thoughts to most of his posts.  Except maybe for some that was made to make some angry.  No doubt he posted some outrageous stuff just to see the reactions.

I have met some many from this board in real life.  Most seem to have the same personality and behavior in person.  A few have been completely different.  These have mostly been some of the most caustic and controversial posters on the board.

Moose was like that.  I wish everyone here had a chance to meet him in real life.  As others have said, better than me, he was a great fan and perhaps his passion for his teams drove him to post some things he shouldn’t have.  I asked him about the difference in personalities in person and on the board and he just smiled and told me it was fun to push people’s buttons.

So glad I had a chance to get to know him in person.  It made reading some of his posts a lot easier to take.  The board is less without him and I miss his participation.

My condolences to his friends and family.
