More cave nonsense


http://stevedawes2012.com/gallery.htm

Somebody there mentions I took the Bellevue East girls basketball team out of my bio. Very nasty comments. Didn't Rush teach them anything about women's issues? They comment on my out of state financial support will be my downfall. How will the community feel about outsiders that support anybody but Steve taking shots at the team with the best Class A record of this millennium?

Since the local paper covered it, it is moving to a different tab. This photo is on my media tab from three weeks ago. It just doesn't have the text inserted yet.



Prior to moving to College Heights in Bellevue in November 2006, I became an ardent supporter of Bellevue East Girls Basketball, thanks to my friendship with coaches Scott Jensen and Matt Fritsche. Eventually when Matt became a coach at Bellevue West, that too became a team that close friend Jeff and I came to follow. Jeff and I were presented T shirts by the Bellevue East senior girls at the 2006 State Tournament by current player Shelby Quinn's mom for cheering the team with extra spirit. I was invited to speak to the team after their semi-finale win in the State Tournament games of 2004. This support has been ongoing for over twelve years. (Long before I moved to Bellevue.)


Amber Quinn is one of the girls that gave Jeff and I the shirts in 2006 and was at the 2012 district final unexpectedly. Jeff is wearing the shirt autographed on the back by ALL the players we were awarded with that day.

They're nothing but the world's oldest Cub Scout troop, somehow tragically gone all "Lord of the Flies."

Nope. But you can bet the parents and grandparents of the girls teams are upset with them. They are voters.

The article about me in the local paper about being a fan of the (football and basketball games I've attended) teams was printed with a photo two weeks ago. The next day the girls state tournament started. Hand shakes and well wishes from the voters all around.

The sour prune nannies who have so little in their own lives to bring them comfort and joy that they stalk DU and make up little weird vignettes about us to clog up google. Sometimes they step over into real life and insert themselves. They target various DU-ers. They always reveal themselves to be weirdly obsessed with the details of our lives. It's an obsessive compulsive variation, I guess.

The Cave is a conservative site that used to be banned from posts on the DU. I hate to give them any hits. They are in contact with at least one of my opponents. Of late they have done more damage to other candidates than I could do.

Without wanting to.

The irony.

I must say, I have peeked. If I need character sketches that are flat and mean spirited, they are the ones to give the work to.
