"Editor�s note: This is Terence Moore�s last column for the Atlanta
Journal-Constitution. Terence has decided to take a voluntary buyout,
ending a stellar 24 years as a sports columnist. Terence sums up his
time this way: �My objective was to get people to think, not to agree or
disagree, just to get people to think.� We thank him for making all of
us think and wish him the best as he moves on to new endeavors."

Tis a shame he didn't follow his own objective.

He won't be missed.

No, he was the newspaper version of a troll on the internet.

From wiki:

An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who
posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in
an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room,
with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional
response[1] or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion.[2]
