Definitely stuck to his guns, even when the majority (myself included) often was on the other side. But I got the feeling he had a certain self-awareness, and even though he was absolutely committed his points of view, he always made room to engage with competing opinions and explain himself without rancor. We need more like him. God bless you, sir. He was always apologetic when we disagreed dramatically in the Warren Magazine reading club; he very much stuck to his guns but he wanted to be sure that nobody was taking the disagreement personally. I always assured him that if we always agreed on every story it would make the club dull if not pointless. I'm going to include a link to the reading club thread, in case anybody is interested but hasn't seen it. @Jayman and I have been working to keep it running since Axe disappeared, and we will continue to do so as long as we're able. I think Axe would be happy to know it's continuing in his absence: jimjum12, Rip, Jayman and 8 others 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he played in Mike's third contest in the Summer of 2022, ending up mid table. He argued religious points better than he assessed grading points.

universal soldier Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Sad, never really interacted with him too much except for a few posts in the NFL water cooler thread. I remember him being a passionate KC Chiefs fan that had annointed Mahomes as the next coming. RIP OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverseeker Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 RIP Axe Elf (Robert)...while I never interacted with him directly here I enjoyed his posts. When I first saw him pop up here (during the pandemic?) I recognized his board name because he used the same name on a fantasy football message board I've frequented over the last 10+ years. He had a polarizing yet very entertaining presence on that site...it appears fantasy football and funny books go hand in hand more than I thought!
