cherrybim, DaMoshe: I’ve never referred to him as anything other than Rabbi JB Soloveitchik. That’s how he referred to himself, that’s how his rabbinical peers called him (except those close to him or working with him in YU, who simply called him JB without title or last name simply since they were on a first-name basis with each other), and that’s the byline he chose to print his own books under. I’ve never omitted his title as Rabbi.
And I’ve never c’v denigrated him. Quoting gedolim who said he was mistaken on various issues and policies is far from personally impugning or being inappropriate.
