I’m sure you’re aware @Bols, but in the event you were chasing grannies around and missed it, Michigan got glorious revenge on Wisconsin today. The boys didn’t look dominant, so If you’ve got any pull with the big man, they could probably use the assistance.

I always thought of Bols as a den legend. I had no idea he was a hero.

@Bols Buddy,
I was going to leave you with one last stripping granny GIF….until I typed “stripping granny” into google and clicked images…
Godspeed to you Sir. You were definitely one of a kind. Everything you went through, you still kept your sense of humor. I pray to God I can be half the man that you were in my life Sir.
Until next time my friend.

I love everyone here but this place feels like a bit of it left the other day with Charlie’s passing and it will take a long time to feel somewhat normal again.
Bols, I’ve appreciated all of our emails and board banter. Hopefully youre reading this from up above and can feel the love that this board had (and always will) for you.
Prayers for healing for your family, friends, and relatives.

Spike was famous for saying “if you don’t love it, quit.”

For a lot of us, this place isn’t just a message board. It’s years of game threads, debates, inside jokes, and friendships built around a team we’ve all stuck with through everything. Members like him helped make this place what it is.
He was one of those posters you just recognized right away….knowledgeable, passionate, and part of the fabric of this community. The kind of presence that made The Den feel like The Den.
As many of our longtime members know, the years have taken a few of our voices, and it’s always tough when we lose another one. He’ll definitely be missed around here.
Thinking of his family and everyone who knew him here on the board. Rest easy, Den brother.

Just seeing this
Bols is the best of us, always able to navigate this occasionally caustic environment with humor and grace. He is absolutely the model Denizen
He is one of the few who have passed who make me set aside my skepticism and doubt, rather to hope for a continuance of consciousness beyond this plane. If you can read this Bols, keep the beers cold and the grannies warm for the rest of us

I have so many inappropriate things I want to reply with.
Instead I’ll simply say Charlie would love that picture. 
I’m sure he’s laughing upstairs.
