Miami's consistent winners weren't even in football or basketball

the great Ron Fraser and his successor

Where is the critique of Ron Fraser for being a longtime Miami icon? There is not any.

I kind of do think MSNBC is very slanted as well, but definitely not as much as Fox is on the other side.
It is just as bad. Dude they hire ex administration officials to have TV shows what the f*** you think that is lol

Real fitting a guy whose basketball program was SUSPENDED for 14 years is talking shit on a legend like Jim Bo

Sorry you couldn't have a coach who consistently won games over 47 years
As if you have never talked shit about the legendary Coach K, who I will remind you, is a protege of your good friend General Robert M. Knight. And a quick reminder, I had not yet moved to my "new hometown" when The U suspended the basketball program. :laugh:

the goldust promo :laugh:

The Goldust promo where Jerry Lawler is a heel, but they're in his hometown of Memphis, so their great idea was to have him say that and the crowd would boo him.

Because it was a late-90s wrestling show in Tennessee, of course the fans still cheered Lawler and booed Goldust after that promo.

Ron Fraser was not pushed out & he was never surly with the media. And I can promise you he would never have whined about joining the ACC or the location of its post season tourney.

Meanwhile, for your viewing pleasure I give you your fave new MSDNC host........Peppermint Patty!

You realize that's not as bad as opinion show hosts receiving their talking points from direct communication with politicians, right?

When the host of an opinion show is reading a script someone else wrote, that would no longer be an opinion show. That would be lying to and deceiving your audience, which is the network's MO.

Fox News was founded by a former Nixon political consultant, Roger Ailes.

"B-b-b-but that's different."

Yeah, it's f***ing worse because the whole network was started with ill intent for political gains.

Man, I just love when my watch randomly decides to turn off message notifications.

As much as I hate Apple and iPhones, I bet they don't have to deal with stupid bullshit like this.

They just have to deal with their operating system being so dumbed down that geriatrics and toddlers can use it.

why should people treat the media with aplomb and honor

the fake news often distorts and manipulates facts

he isn't the only one to lash out at the media (Gundy) or the only one to routinely be surly at media (Saban calls the media and their hype "rat poison")

Blll Belichick also dismisses the media and provides monotonal one word answers or simplistic sentences so the media can't manipulate his words and use it as locker room material

Not everyone is as loose with the media as your friend "Coach Nerd"

After seeing how many little dings and scratches my Galaxy watch has, I would definitely not wear a Rolex at work.

But yes, I agree that smart watches generally look shitty in comparison to actual watches.

imagine getting all your talking points from the media

remember the old chris rock bit on the media

"WHY YOU GOTTA DISTORT OUR IMAGE LIKE THAT? IT'S NOT US, IT'S THE MEDIA."

"When I'm looking over my shoulder at night at the ATM, I'm not looking for the media. I'm looking for REDACTED."

remember the MLK bit

"RUN! IT'S THE MEDIA!"

:laugh:

My problem with Jim Bo is not so much how he treats the media, but his overall demeanor. Again, there was no reason to insult the ACC and make fun of Greensboro when the school made the choice to leave the Big East. There was no reason for him to flat out accuse 3 schools of buying their basketball rosters. There was no reason for him to completely fumble yesterday's post game presser.

And yes, Coach Nerd is a refreshing breath of air, but for today I will defer to what Hoodie would say........"On to Wake Forest".

He's a cranky old man just leave him be

He spent many years in the big east how do you think they felt when the league collapsed

Do you even remember the old big east before football ruined it

Syracuse v uconn, Georgetown, Villanova all great games back in the day

As someone who grew up in the end of the big east seeing that Titanic basketball conference collapse was sad.

Of course I remember it because both my "new hometown" and my "birthplace hometown" teams were part of the Big East. I remember Georgetown v St John's too. All great rivalries. I LOVED the Big East. A lot of once great conferences/teams were destroyed because of realignment over the years. Just look at the Nebraska football team. But sadly, the world goes on and the strong learn to adapt. And why does he get a pass for being a "cranky old man"? Yes, its endearing when they are successful but the act grows old when the success wanes. There was nothing endearing about his presser yesterday & I believe it hurt his legacy because people will remember the clumsy way it happened.
