Turns out Russ is actually a big fan of Jacky since the 90’s… Its hard to hate on the people that support what your doing! HSK is still holding Russ accountable but not jumping on the bandwagon of any false reporting!
And if russ has something to contribute we put it down…
yet globalgrind is a very wishy washy site that panders to the people they are suppose to be reporting on… If you want the real you go to HSK if you want fluff you got to global grind
