If you or Paul think milo is lying and playing a sympathy card, then don't sympathize. But to counter-attack on a personal loss, without being 100% certain that he's making things up, is very inappropriate. (And just because he kept posting on SI, after saying he won't, should not have to hurt his credibility about his personal loss).

This is getting out of hand. Paul never said Milo was lying. Somebody else made that up. It didn't come from Paul.

Paul's point, if I may be so bold as to argue in his defense, was simply that Milo posted very personal information here that most people wouldn't burden the thread with. He claimed a state of bereavement seeking sympathy in some people's minds. He then turned around and continued posting in his aggressive confrontational style (which in itself is fine) in stark contrast to the deep personal loss he had just described. There seemed to be a bit of hypocrisy there. That was Paul's point. I hope I have stated it clearly.
