I hear you Non. Day by day I am getting to the point that you and my son are already at.

There is a commercial on tv where a HS girl goes to her mother and asks her if she (the mother) has decided to allow the daughter to join the army. Both my wife and I instantly shouted like a European soccer commentator. NOOOOOOOOOO!

And some people want the government to be in charge of our health and well being......

Great point!!!!

Wayne.....fight this tooth and nail!
If you have to, contact your local TV station and tell them your story. Sometimes getting them involved can really get action.
The armed forces, who are trying to get kids to sign up, will not like this story of your son getting screwed over being on TV.
GO GET EM!!!

I will bide my time and let my son do his thing first. If he doesn't succeed I will call Congressman Don on the phone and if that doesn't work we can talk to the tv stations.

Between talking to NSD and some other folks, and hearing this story, I've told my son not to join. Nice going, Army.

Here is my take.. and it might be cynical as all hell.

But part of the problem with the ridiculous layers of red tape and confusion can be pointed back to the root issue that someone bilked the system when it was less complex and the government at that point added layers of "protection" that in the end punishes those that are just trying to get what is coming to them.

We the people have to look no further than members of our own for the demise of this country and systems around us.

I feel for Wayne and his son for being caught up in the wash of it all..

I have heard this so many times over the years. I even warned my son about all the screw ups that happen before he signed up.

I am certain that is a big part of the problem. But they should get off their @ss and ask for the damn paperwork themselves. They should hold off judgment/punishment until they know that he was not in the Army during the months in questions. The archive dept should not be hording the data for 90 days or more until they dole out the data. Flip the switch. in 30 seconds it could be passed along.
there is a backlog of others waiting for the info too. Let's say 100. (There are other archive offices in other parts of the country.) If it took a whole 5 minutes to flip the switch and send the email to the proper person that is 10 days. (assuming one person on an 8 hour shift.) 2 business weeks could clear the whole bottle neck. They won't get 100o requests at the same time so the request for info could be responded to in 2 or 3 days max.

beast (5h) : Seems like he was just pissed because he was no longer the starter

beast (5h) : Campbell is right, he's rich and he doesn't have to explain sh!t... but that attitude gives teams reasons to never sign him again.

dfosterf (22-Feb) : I have some doubt about all that

dfosterf (22-Feb) : I read De'Vondre Campbell's tweet this morning (via the New York Post) Florio says that if he invested his earnings wisely, he will be good

beast (20-Feb) : I haven't followed, but I believe he's good when healthy, just hasn't been able to stay healthy.

dfosterf (20-Feb) : Hasn"t Bosa missed more games than he has played in the last 3 years?

Mucky Tundra (19-Feb) : He hasn't been too bad when healthy but I don't feel like I ever heard much about when he is

Zero2Cool (19-Feb) : Felt like he was more interested in his body, than football. He flashed more than I expected

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : If the exploit is not fixed, we'll see tons of "50 top free agents, 50 perfect NFL team fits: We picked where each should sign in March" lo

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Issue should be solved, database cleaned and held strong working / meeting. Boom!

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : It should be halted now.

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : usually spambots are trying to get traffic to shady websites filled with spyware; the two links being spammed were to the Packers website

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : you know when you put it that way combined with the links it was spamming (to the official Packers website)

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Yep. You can do that with holding down ENTER on a command in Console of browser

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : even with the rapid fire posts?

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : I'm not certain it's a bot.

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : I've got to go to work soon which is a pity because I'm enthralled by this battle between the bot and Zero

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Yeah, I see what that did. Kind of funny.

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : now it's a link to Wes Hodkiezwicz mailbag

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : that's why it confused the hell out of me

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Yeah, but this is taking a headline and slapping it into the Packers Talk

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : Wasnt there a time guests could post in the help forum?

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : lol good question, kind of impressed!

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : Tell them its an emergency

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Working. Meetings.

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : Lots of fun; the spam goes back 4 or 5 pages by this point

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : I thought you'd look for yourself and put 2 and 2 together lol. I overestimated ya ;)

Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : I thought Guests couldnt post?

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : And gosh that's gonna be fun to clean up! hahaa
