Who Do You Like More, Me or Hire Esherick?

My banning comes down to one thing, loyal reader.  Who do you like more, me or Hire Esherick?  After one post celebrating the creativity of Georgetown students, he took away my posting privileges, never consulting with the rest of the board.  In what seems like an ego trip, he has now hurt my feelings, and made me question my loyalty to what I've helped build into THE GLOBAL PHENOMENON.

For all that I've written, all the blood, sweat and tears I've poured into Casual Hoya, did I deserve a demotion for one misguided attempt at fostering community and building school spirit?  Or was it a feeble attempt at a man dying to feel powerful, and dying to be wanted?

That's the question you must ask yourself.

Jeff Green’s dad plays on his name alone to win votes; Hire Esherick is like a beacon in the night, singing a beautiful siren song. He fights against injustice and wears an olive branch around his penis. He is the most gentle lover, my adonis.

Uchitel says the most she’ll do is go over to the bar and find a group of girls and say, "Hey girls, do you want to come and drink for free at this guy’s table?" When girls are brought to a client’s table, there is a twofold benefit for the club. First—and this part is called the honey trap—the girls consume alcohol so that the table will go through bottles faster; second, and more obvious, the girls keep the men entertained. Are the guys sometimes married? Uchitel answers, "None of our business. We are not there to judge. It’s not a synagogue."

Some thoughts on this most useless of debates

1) You guys really need to kiss and make up because the blog is better with both of you. There is more content and you disagree about a lot of stuff so that keeps things varied and entertaining.
2) Relegating JGD to ‘Eric Devendorf’ is sacrilege. He may be a pain sometimes, but Devendorf is easily my most hated college basketball player ever. At least use Jeremiah Rivers or something.
3) Even when JGD gets back in, you should continue to add other writers. The more writers, the more content which is better for all of us with nothing better to do.
