First of all - let me start with proof:
Watermelon thumper echoes ud success;
http://udel.net/PR/SpecialUDelivery/vol2no1/watermelon.html
Second of all especially to Arnold Horshack - who's previous moniker here was Nuts4xu... I could care less about what your opinion is of my actions regarding Melongate. I didn't start it, I didn't end it and it will forever be part of the Xavier lexicon.
My hatred started with ud when my grey haired mother was accosted by two ud fans on her way up the stairs, I was trailing ten feet behind her and when those two fugazi's saw her wearing her Xavier sweatshirt proud - they jeered her, scared her and cursed at her. It takes a lot for me to get mad but I went up to both of them and demanded they apologize and they refused. I said some choice words to them about something regarding lack of decency. That was it for me. I never hated Dayton, never thought about them - but after that incident, it clicked. As she was yelled at by almost every fan on her way from the 100 seats to the half way mark - my blood started boiling.
I never had noticed the "Beat Xavier" t-shirts, never noticed little brother trying to swing away. But when ma familia was threatened and jeered by the fans of ud bc of my mother wearing her sweatshirt. It was on. And I never have and never will fight a ud fan, never have defaced property. If anything (and yes I have talked to relatives of KW and even they laughed about it) I have tried to keep melongate tongue in cheek. But some people, especially ud fans - and I guess some summer eve's fans from our school don't realize that satire and humor is protected.
Second part - please note after I did not start it - merely encouraged the viewing of Melongate video - the peons of ud went zonkers.... As if we were really serious with allegations of fruit molesting (which later was proven in a court of law) it's like the little kid you give a nickname too (like little brother for ud) and they hate it... Presto!!! it sticks. Those idiots hated the Watermelon's so much because it exposed them for the trash that they are and secretly exposed why so many watermelons are sold in the greater dayton area (I will never capitalize dayton or anything remote to it) therefore it stuck and will always stick bc of their sick sick love of fruit.
Third part - things get personal... waleskowski's dad then actually gets on a ud message board and threatens me repeatedly with a lawsuit for defamation of character and libel. I welcomed any and all challenges to this because I would have paid $100,000.00 to see the judge's face when a red faced father says, "And this internet poster claimed that my son had relations with a watermelon".
Hey I am all for sticking up for family (see above), but if your son is in the public light and a varsity basketball player who worked his way up from a walk-on to arguably one of the better players at ud in recent memory - one Xavier fan's post should not make you post on a ud message board trying to defend your son but then in the process - regardless of the intentions, you make yourself and your son the laughing stock of the A-10 bc you got so worked up over an obvious farce. Your son busted his butt and was a very good player, but you my man only disgraced your son by trying to come to his aid and defend him when his actions on the court more than spoke for himself.
Yes - after that I bought watermelon hats for facepainters vol 1. and yes I fed-ex'd a watermelon to good old pete but only after his threats - and lastly yes I ran onto the court after we beat ud... sorry a SILENT ud arena. But that was only bc Filthy Chilean and I were in very nice seats, and we were totally respectful of them and their fans even though we got yelled at, popcorn thrown at us.
And then there were two straws that broke the camel's back - a 15 year old kid in front of us kept yelling at us and flicking us off and standing up on purpose trying to block our view. Finally after he threw a hot dog wrapper at us and yelled F-xu - to me and filthy for the 20th time - I mentioned to him and his father that if they didn't stop it, I would report them to security and if they failed to respond, I would make sure both he and his father (who was very much encouraging him) would never eat anything solid again. They both apologized, and I accepted it. They later again apologized and wished us luck.
When Xavier finally came from behind and won - these two ud fans next to us who had been cool the whole time - one of them finally became literally violent once we won the game- pushing me almost down the stairs. That is when I said, "nobody from dayton is worth fighting - watch this" I will give the other ud fan credit where it is due. He and I knew the same girl and he tracked me down and apologized for his friend getting violent and blamed the booze and Xavier being the better team. At no time have I ever antagonized, hounded or harassed a ud fan at Cintas or at ud arena bc they went to a different school than I did.
Yes the stomping of the ud logo is one of my favorite memories, yes the watermelon hats were passed around and yes I have no idea how I got home from Dana's that night.
So as much as you someone might not like my actions - so what - on this board... Hit the ignore button on me and move on with your life.
As for recent actions... Yes I still can and only will hate one team and that team is dayton.
I closed my board down bc of too many negatives in regards to my University.
But I hope you never have your mother receive threats from a group of ud fans, your tires slashed at a ud bar, pushed down some stairs after leg surgery and treated like crap bc you went to a better university 45 miles south of dayton.
Bc if you had those things happen - I guess your actions would be a little bit harsher than to talk about watermelons... bc we all know how offensive watermelons are to EVERYONE.
Yours with respect,
Pablo
