I think there are people suddenly wondering what all the heck he did or didn't do besides the sexual abuse allegations- or trying to throw more gasoline on the fire (like there needs to be more gasoline [SER thinks so]...). Personally, even with all the crazy tweets, goofy FB comments, Rocking Chairs on the field, G7... other actions that drove everyone crazy... I have a gut feeling there's likely nothing criminal there. I think it's a good idea to look and definitely confirm this- but it's a satellite issue that's in a way farther orbit from the planet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES, you are totally right imo. I know many of the new as well as old, very old players, it's why I said what I said. First, the original topic is way to important to cloud it with anything else. I also know ( for a fact ) many just want the man down because of his choices and what THEY think the man played in the evolution of the activity. AS I said it's not like people can't have multiple issues why they hate the man, and many do BUT lets me put those people at ease or drive them more nuts, with or with the person drum corps will continue to evolve, change, develop, explore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah- Personally, I would have been thrilled that he had never touched anyone. Wrecking people's hearts and souls isn't what this activity is supposed to do.- I figure he would have eventually retired and things would get back to some kind of normal for the organization. I guess with my job... I've learned to ride through bad management and supervision, I'll outlast them eventually. I figured much the same here.
