Who is Mitch Tallan?

7/6/2012

Picture
Someone posted annonymously with a comment and accused me of being a "Fred" or "Phred".  I have studied the style of writing and determined it can be none other than Mitch Tallan.  On the Echelon web site he gave himself the nickname "Pretty Boy" which in my day was a name to be avoided rather than cherished, plus, not sure that is an apt description of my friend Mitch anyway but who am I to say?  If any of you can give me additional information on Mitch, so we can all better understand who is this strange man, I would be grateful.

Mitch is just another in the long line of guys who drop me. For that I don't like him or anyone else who drops me.

I think Mr. Tallan is a blood sucking attorney but I could be wrong.

I have heard Mitch is a closet homo, what with that nickname and wearing lycra all the time.

"Pretty Boy"? More Like Mitch the Bitch Tallan, or BiPolar Mitch I would say.

What do you mean by a "new" low for this Blog? I think the picture of Mitch is rather becoming.

Steve is one of those overly sensitive, metrosexual types.

I agree, but at least he isn't posting comments as women anymore.

Geez. Mitch and I have exchanged many funny emails with each other since his victory at the top of Revenge. He knows this is in good fun, I know it's in good fun. Don't be so sensitive and remember the first rule of the blog, it's all in good fun.

Just don't ask him about cassette wheel protecters he's kind of sensitive about it.

I just saw this. I am not offended. It is all in good fun. Just so you know, Blair Fraley is responsible for the nickname "Pretty Boy". I have asked, demanded, threatened, and begged him to remove it to no avail. Blair used to take our team photos. I once complained about his photo of me and he then dubbed me "Pretty Boy". If you peruse the team website, you will see that Blair has provided a nickname to just about every rider. He is like George W. Bush in that regard, and probably others.
Of all the comments, the only one that bothers me is the one posted by "I could be as wrong as well". Any help identifying this person would be most appreciated. Just PM me at [email protected].
