Right. The agenda creeps in again. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | Hopson has yet to cause me to dislocate multiple fingers punching a wall. Thus, he hasn't annoyed me near as much as Yarbrough. Yet. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | I didn't make the comparison, they did. They were amused at the prospect of me detonating at regular intervals watching Hopson drift through games in Yarbroughesque fashion. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

I hope his approach was a function of environment moreso than personality. If that's the case, he can gradually change. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |
