Why in the blue 17 is he tweeting out every single bit of info about OM at the CWS? He isn't the OM beat writer, he's the MSU beat writer last time I checked. I follow him for news about MSU, I don't give a flying 17 what color bow tie Bianco is wearing at his press conference. If I did I would follow Yancy or that goofy looking guy who covers them for the CL. Maybe it's just me but I'm tired of my phone going off and it's something about OM.

Apparently the OM beat writer was allowed to schedule vacation this week for some strange reason (guess he figured OM had no legitimate shot at Omaha) so Bonner has been sent in his place to cover OM in the CWS.

You'll definitely want to unfollow because he will Tweet about every damn

pitch. I had to unfollow during our season, between him, Carskadon, MSbaseball, etc sometimes you gotta choose and he was the worst of all of them.

I've had to wonder which set of fans would be more upset about this...

The Ole Miss fans for having to have the MSU beat writer cover us in Omaha, or

The MSU fans for having their beat writer covering Ole Miss in Omaha.

I figure that either way, both sets of fans will have an easy time claiming C-L Conspiracy about it, and we'll see a lot of fake cancelled subscriptions announced on the internets.

I unfollowed him until it's over. It's not only the constant tweeting about things only Ole Miss fans care about, it's his need to tell me his favorite show is TRL and anything else that might get brought up with him and his friends.

Football can't get here fast enough.

If I didn't follow him for all things MSU then I wouldn't give one **** about a MSU beat writer covering OM under these circumstances. It's the fact that he's the only person I follow that is MSU related besides Stricklinnz, Mullen and SPS. That being said, who else is out here that's a good follow. I know Bob will be good except he can't give out anything crootin related.

I don't think anyone can claim bias, just idiocy.

Do I think that ole miss has a chance in hell at playing for SEC championship in football this year? No. If I were Kellenberger's boss, would I okay his vacation request for that weekend? Hell no.

Hopefully I remember to re-follow Bonner after the CWS.

Are this many people really unfollowing him b/c he has to cover OM since Kellyburger is on vacay? I'm genuinely curious to why OM news would make MSU folks upset. I follow HK, Neal, Chase, and Garrett anyway as well as beat guys for other SEC schools. The more you know right?

I just don't want to read through Ole Miss coach speak and have #OleMaha all over my feed.

I don't follow any of their beatwriters because I don't care about Ole Miss. I'm not one of those people peeping over my neighbor's fence. I'm genuinely disinterested.

Bob's a great follow. He does a good job of only giving you highlights during a baseball ball game, but unfortunately I think the athletic department feels the need to send him to a lot of less interesting sports to spread the love and he misses a big chunk of baseball. And there's the whole can't-talk-about-inhouse-material thing.

Mike isn't as bad as Marshmellow about blowing up my feed, but somehow he might be worse when it comes to including some stat or reminder of why MSU sucks at the end of each of his articles.

Because I don't give a **** about Ole Miss news that's why. If I wanted OM news I'd follow the goofy looking reporter they have.

Freedawg, I unfollowed him early in our season because he's overboard with info, every pitch, every angle, every scenario and thats MSU stuff. Do you think i'm going to follow him for the same about a team I don't give a **** about?
