Richard, I'm pretty sure that malmo is replying to you privately and maybe you can't tell because I think you are on digest. malmo can obviously look after himself but shouldn't private messages be replied to privately?

I've said this before and I'll say it again - if people want to attack each other please do it off list. It's really tiresome and I suggest that if it goes on the moderator does something about it.

"I called you out for repeatedly making false and slanderous statements about me." Mr. Malley has a very selective memory, apparently.

Not hard to read between those lines. I responded with a snide remark at the end of my reply that he could now go back to his booze. That's the false and slanderous statement referred to above. Is it any more false or slanderous than what he directed at me? Not that I can see. At least what I said has some basis in reality, being that it is his reputation down in Eugene... Malmo's response? Demanding that I name the person who told it to me. That's just silly. I know I don't drink or do drugs, and anyone who knows me will tell you the same. Hurling such insults at me wouldn't phase me, because I know it's not true. In my experience, anyone who gets as defensive as Malmo did to my retort has something to hide, not that I can see any sense in someone who won't answer to their real name being worried about their reputation. If it weren't true, he'd have no reason to care. His calling me out consisted of repeated insults while I stated I had no intention of participating in the debate further. And he's telling *me* to grow up! So, Malmo chose to attack me on the basis of lack of ethics (just as he did Richard) and lack of ability as an athlete. Heck, I'm the first to admit I did nothing special on the track. Does that make me any less qualified to participate in the sport? Malmo quite clearly thinks so, but again, I honestly don't give a rip what he thinks. You have to give respect to get respect. I'm confident in my reputation with anyone who's worked with me, thank you very much, Malmo. There are a handful of area coaches on this list that can, if so inclined, speak to my reputation in the area of meet management, timing, and results. Walt Murphy has been the recipient of timely big meet results I've sent him for his weekly newsletter. Amby Burfoot has requested to meet with me in person. Coaches I've worked with think highly of me, and athletes I coached temporarily decided to quit the team when I quit coaching. I've got an Excellence in Student Leadership award to show for my work with the OSU XC/Track team and a published article on the history of the program. I put together and maintained a team website which is widely considered around the country as one of the best XC/Track sites for any level of college. I'm sure I'm missing a few things, but the point is, anyone who's opinion I value has a very different view of me than does Malmo.
