Back in 2004 I e-mailed him asking what the hell he had against Glen Mason, who he used to rip constantly. I asked him if it was because Mason made more money than him, hard more hair than him, was better looking than him, etc.
I received not one, but two ballistic e-mails back from him, calling me GQ guy. He basically said how stupid I was for talking about his appearance and not how smart he was. How I was a loser for having my life controlled by a bunch of 18 year old kids every saturday afternoon, and how he was far above that. Went on to say that the Gophers are totally irrelevant and will always be before boasting that he has a position and a "forum" that I could never touch and that I would be stuck grinding my life out in a cubicle wishing I had what he had. Went on to say that I blew it and that he would never answer my e-mails again.
52 minutes later, got another e-mail of similar nature, buy mostly on how low I was to talk about his looks and again how smart he was and how he was much better than me because of his income and the forum he had.
I e-mailed him back asking why, after a life in the media, why he hadn't developed a little thicker skin?
That was the end of our communication.
