Gotcha. Man, I feel like a dope for believing him, but so goes life. From now on, I'll just assume everyone is the complete opposite of what they post.
Hence, LW56 is some sort of Rhodes Scholar genius true Steelers fan.
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

I think the reason we fall for crap like this is... we'd never even think of it. I mean why?? What would even cause someone to make something like that up. How do they even have the time...
All I can think of is one time someone questioned him about something so he made up he played in the NFL. And it all snowballed from there?
So no confirmation on if this person really does have cancer? That would be really sick if that was made up...

I will also say in Coachs defense that I think there is a little truth in some things he said but he took those truths and ran with them.IMO it was very important for Coach to feel important and for his opinion to carry a lot of weight and that is why he ran with some stories and also why he created the other screename to get people to believe him.

I'm out of the loop on this, but I don't think someone gets banned for lying about what they do for a living. My guess is the cancer thing was the kicker - I hope I'm wrong about that - who knows.
Can anyone say exactly, precisely what he was banned for? Was it one thing, or several, or what?

Dont know on that one, the only thing I could do would be to go by where he lives and take his real name and call around to hospitals in that area.
That is going to far for me, the guy was busted and is banned. That is enough for me.

Ghosting maybe? I think you can be banned for that, not positive.

I didn't even know this thread was about CoachB.
Never liked him, never thought he had inside info, never thought that was his son.
Never thought anyone would lie about having cancer.
What a loser.

Wow, maybe he just went crazy for a while? This CoachBs son only started a while ago right? If he really is going through something maybe he snapped or meds? This is just messed up. Man, I'm kinda Stunned.

Well he has been lying about his college coaching and playing in the NFL for a long time. You could be right about the going crazy thing and wanting people to believe his story so badly.

Can't say as I'm an expert on ghosting. My understanding was logging on as 2 different people from the same computer???
If so, is it unbelievable to think that maybe his son was using the dad's computer? I mean, if my son logged on here using my computer, would tht constitute ghosting?

I'm with Arch on that I am who I say I am. Hell it's kind of hard to be a fraud when you go by your real-life nickname.
Ok, so what do we know and what don't we know about who B is?
I originally hated the guy and warmed up to him, now I almost feel glad I called him all those words during the infamous Charlie Frye debates.
I hate frauds.

Don't feel fooled or used. He didn't get over on anyone. It was just a silly little kids game he was playing and we now know the truth. Don't accept the victim role...you were only trying to be friendly. Whan all is said and done, some bad karma is coming his way. Us, we were trying to be nice to a sick guy.....we're still on the right side of things. ...don't spend another second worrying about it. I'm already done. And by the way, I'm Spider-man.

Remember when his son said that he was in the hospital and that the doctor wouldn't allow him to bring him a laptop? Well, it turns out that CoachB was logging into his myspace page on a daily basis the whole time.
Also, you must factor in that CoachB and CoachB's son both registed on this board with the same email accounts.
Are we to believe that both father and son not only share the same email address, but also the same myspace page? Methinks not.

Well i should have said I guess it was ghosting, I assume that was the major one and there are others too i guess. I have been kind of kept in the loop on what was going on by the Refs but I have not gotten a PM on the reason for the final decision.
Ghosting is signing up for a second account under a different name and posting under that name. I dont believe the final determination had anything to do with IP addresses. Registering with the same email name is one good way to get caught.

LIke I said, I'm no expert. I guess I'm looking for any chance that the guy was legit....I've pm'd you what I feel like.........and I didn't even use the words I wanted to to be honest.

Oh, I don't feel like a victim at all. I feel sorry for this little man that pretends to be someone he isn't. Sure, I got scammed, we all did, and at least now we know it.

That right there is something that I can't say.
If Coach really does have cancer, I wish him all the best and I really REALLY hope and pray for his recovery -- nothing can change that.
I'm sorry that a lot of you guys got duped, I really mean that...but if Coach really is sick, then my sympathies still go out to him and his family.

Never liked him. It wasn't a difference of opinion (we aligned most of the time on the Browns)...he was just a condescending idiot...I never believed for a second that he had info of any kind...I used to laugh when he claimed to be tight with Chuck Frye.
I can count posters that I really wish weren't around on one hand (if that)...dude was one of them. The only thing he was good for was giving me free pass, idiotic springboards to make a point on political threads.
Straight up...none of this shocks me. I feel the pain of those who are.

That is why I tell people who are upset they prayed for him to not be. Continue to pray for the man, it is the Christian thing to do.
I am angry, but at the same time I feel much pity for the man.

j/k Yep King, the cB was lying the whole time. I always thought he was abrasive. For a laugh out loud moment (at least for someone like me who just found all this out minutes ago) go read the second page on the "Can Ryan improve Wimbley" thread.  I literally laughed out loud and felt much better!! funny stuff in retrospect.

I'm an infrequent poster, and have been thinking of this clown the last few days, including him and his family in my prayers. Really feel betrayed by CoachB. Why would someone post a story like this if it wasn't true?

I'm just surprised it took this long for him to be discovered. I've had PM battles with "b" in the past and taking what he said during some of those and what he let slip on the old board and here I figured out he was a fraud a long time ago. I've told several people as much over the years. I just never thought it was worth the crap I'd take from some of you guys if I outed him. But I'm glad some others have finally done it. Hell, the guy was a class A jerk on and off the board. He PM'd one time and challenged me to a fight. I actually gave him my address and told him when I'd be available because I knew he'd never show. He never did. And the next week he put me on ignore because I wasn't worth his time. Uh huh........I've been laughing ever since. So don't feel bad for this guy. Because for all you know he's logging onto the OBR right now and picking fights with Barry McBride.......

Basically...
My guess is the closest he got to coaching is sniffing the jockstraps in a locker room somewhere in between emptying the trash and letting the wax dry on the cafeteria floor...

Take notes......he made it all up. He wasn't a coach. His son doesn't play college football. He wasn't an ex-NFL player. He didn't have insider info. He wasn't in the hopsital. He may have Cancer although since he lied about everything else I seriously doubt he has anything worse that Carpal Tunnel.......
