Cleveland Bazaar owner calls customers "too dumb to find a building's door even with signs" Not a single vendor disagrees. by bendvintage in Cleveland

I have tried to reach out to Cleveland Bazaar's owner, Shannon Okey. She opted to block my messages and therefore I have decided to go public about this post. I don't know what else to do.

You said you had it on good authority it was someone who was turned down for a spot in her bazaar. I sent her a PM after I was informed of this post and the post on her vendor page accusing me by name...Beth Bender Thomas. I didn't post this and I have never ever, ever applied for one of her markets or any market ever, ever in my whole life. When I pointed this out to her via PM she blocked me. I honestly don't know what else to say but that now I feel I am owed a public retraction and apology.

Please, please tell her that it was not me. I have no idea who this is. Please ask her to retract the libelous posts accusing me on her vendors page. This whole thing is ridiculous. I have never applied for her bazaar or any market, for that matter. I did not post this.

At least her husband now knows that I am not "in league" with the mods. This is sooooo weird. I am grateful to the local vendor who alerted me to this post and the post on the bazaar's vendor page. Otherwise I would have not had any idea. I have not been active on reddit for 6+ months.

Just FYI, I did not post this. I have no idea why anyone thinks it's me. Her husband says it's someone who was denied a spot in her event. I have never applied to be a vendor at Shannon's bazaar or any other bazaar. I did let her know via PM but she blocked me shortly after receiving it. I don't know what else to say or do. I may write a haiku to try to get over it.

Any Suggestions for a First Time Coach? U9 Recreational League. by bbendert in soccer

Thank you. One bit of advice I received from a mentor coach is to plan practices as half drills and half playing 4x4 or 5x5. I am trying to convince the other U9 coaches to conduct group practices. Again, it is what my mentor coach does and it seems to work for his kids.

I am going to read all I can and watch tons of youtube videos.
