I noticed today Sweep has not logged in since June. I know he had some heart issues. Anyone have any idea how he's doing?

Ok guys I don’t know for sure but I know sweeps real name to be Scot Lucas a quick google search brings this up. Sweep if this is not you I’m sorry for outing you. If it is then I’m afraid we have lost another friend brother and Ball State gut. obits.forestlawncemetery-fh.com/obituary/scott-lucas |

That’s what I was afraid of. I didn’t always agree with the way he posted but I did frequently enjoy his posts. He will be missed.
Thanks for looking into it, Rob.

I’ll miss him.. He drove me nuts at times but he added at least a little flavor to our little board.. I never really determined if he actually liked or even watched Ball State. I think he just liked to troll in only a way he could. Rip Sweep

Strange, isn't it? Sweep and I both typed many thousands of words into this forum, and read each other contributions. But I had no idea who he was and didn't know he had died. Reflecting on this doesn't suggest that we are all spending our time particularly wisely.

I prefer to think he's still out there and any time will return to outrage or amuse or even make a good point.

Reflecting on this doesn't suggest that we are all spending our time particularly wisely. It’s certainly not a productive use of our time but it’s human nature to seek out connections. I don’t personally know anyone here but definitely feel a strong sense of community on this board. |

I did not know him personally either but as I do with most regulars I try to find a way to at least get a name, cause you never know. Reading his obit no kids never married only a few surviving relatives. He probably used this board for entertainment and social interaction.

I've always figured that if BSU basketball were to somehow catch fire again...you know, winning an NCAA tourney game or something... that it would bring a bunch of new fans to this board who I would be absolutely disgusted with, and that I would try to limit my interactions to only the old breed. |
