SpecialT This Board Rating Has Been Fla

Just because there’s a different outlet now due to technology advancements doesn’t make the sharing of trials through

that outlet disengenuous. The world is changing, and how we deal with grief and trials has to change with it. Some people may be seeking attention, but I’d prefer to err on the side of accepting him at his word that he’s posting to share something personal to help others.

Those two things converged on him and were interrelated

Wait, who's crazy ex-wife? And how was that related to his suspension?

Actually, we have heard her side. They published it in the Trib, remember? The ex-FIL was pretty vocal

Sounds like he got divorced. That’s a tough thing. Glad he’s back!

People shouldn’t share everything about themselves.
