hang Pedey from the sower at the top of the capital building. I thought it was pretty funny myself. One guy even suggested the best kind of rope to use.

 
Sounds about right. I don't think advocating murder is right no matter how many games we lose.

 
I tend to think 'he was joking' doesn't justify everything. Some jokes, you just don't make.

 
Death threats, joking or not, look pretty scary to coaches, politicians, actors, etc.

Good that he got banned. The only hope is that you, his son, are learning something about decorum and where lines are crossed, etc, from this.

That’s silly to be banned for what was clearly a joke—albeit in poor taste. It was a joke, right hskrdedhed? If not, your childhood must have been pretty rough.

 
"That’s silly to be banned for what was clearly a joke—albeit in poor taste."

It's just that you know that and I know that and most people know that, but it seems that these days there are more and more who are incited by such things when they see it, and we see in the news more and more people acting on such "jokes," or at least attempting to.

Maybe a deletion of the offending post and a warning would have been better than banning, unless the board sysops were legally protecting themselves; imagine if soom kook harmed Pederson and later talked about seeing "those ideas" on an online forum such as this one. Big trouble for the forum sysops, likely.

 
Of course he was joking. One thing everyone should remember is that all coaches lose. T.O. had 3 perfect season's and it took him over 20yrs to do it. Nothing wrong with this team that a defense that starts playing like the Black Shirts of old won't fix. The players are there and more coming. Don't know if Coz will be here to coach them or not. Hope he can turn it around, if he can't changes may be need at D/C position. The offense is just fine.

GBR!!!
