Yep, his articles are great. I just removed him from Twitter and check out his stuff on Athletic. Which is really a shame but whatever.

In the summer of 2012 when Cal and UK announced they were no longer doing a home and home with IU causing media to lose their collective minds I became unruly on Twitter and am frankly surprised I didn’t banned.
I got blocked from Bozich, Bozich Jr, Thamel, Mike Rutherford ,Adam Lefkoe, random IU bloggers, and tried everything possible to get banned by Forde but I want to think he wouldn’t do it out of spite because I look back and tweeted things at him that just weren’t right.
I MISS that 2009-2015 time period and all of the fire and rage it came with. Heady times.

There ain't a cooler team in college football. Gd we're gonna bust heads in the SEC this year.
90% of you are slightly right of Attila the Hun so maybe that also plays a factor with how you perceive these folks I don't know though maybe it's just them as suggested. I still read most of your all's **** in spite of that, btw.

Kyle Tucker became too tiresome for me on twitter as well. And it isn't just the politics; I'm left of center and probably agree with h he's insufferable about almost everything. Unfollowing him and just reading his Athletic pieces was the right move for me.
I shouldn’t know which way the beat writer for my beloved wildcats leans.
I don’t care if he is literally the purple teletubbie outside of his job. Just don’t shove it down everyone’s throat especially when the majority of the team you covers fans are Trumpers.
Tucker, like mags, likes to use his political leaning to play the holier than thou card and To make himself feel above Billy Joe
I agree that it's annoying but maybe you should just get some thicker skin because it's not going back to the good old days you all are romanticizing. It's 2021. People aren't one dimensional in the social media era.
I unfollowed Tucker on Twitter long ago.*

The thing is for some of you youngbloods that aren’t pure GenX is you didn’t grow up with the dominant value in your life being “meh, just ignore stuff and it goes away or not who cares whatever gimme a Surge”.
Does it result in my generation probably getting locked out of political leadership? Sure.
Does it make day to day life better? Oh yeah.

Meh, if I want up to date UK sports info from the main beat writer I shouldn't have to be inundated with hollow virtue signaling. But I'm sure if he was raving about how awesome Trump is your opinion would be the same.
Just let me know if Mintz and Brooks are returning, K?
Attila the Hun was a #RINO
I miss the good ole days when people would get so pissed off by a particular article in their local paper that they’d make a loud production of their intent to cancel their subscription.
Pre-tournament ranking of TV broadcast teams...
5. Nessler/Lavin
4. Eagle/Spanarkel
3. Nantz/Raftery/Hill
2. Anderson/Jackson
1. Harlan/Bonner
Bad news...no Chris Webber. Enjoyed his calls. Best news...NO LEN ELMORE. Get out. You were the worst.
Westwood One hasn't released their broadcast teams, just names. But they have a strong slate of PBP guys (Kugler, Pasch, Benetti), and intriguing young analysts (Robbie Hummel, Jon Crispin, and Donny Marshall). Hummel is really good in his TV appearances that I've seen. Would love to see some of those young guys take over for older CBS analysts.

Did a 2nd bracket and sent you the cash.
11 entries is pathetic, people. It's a good charity.
I'm cancelling my subscription to anth. His virtue signaling has bothered me for the last time.
(FTR I don't actually give a F. Let's please not ruin a good Thursday discussing this.)

Just give me the t ball and fishing updates, babe.
There is a good "clutch moments in March Madness from the last 12 years on YouTube
I couldn't stand Aaron Craft but damn, that guy was involved in buzzer beaters all 4 years. 2 were losses.

I'm being a straight up grumpy, sore loser about the tournament. I'm sure I'll tune into games but it's with that attitude of "meh, whatever, we didn't want to play in your stupid tournament anyway. Instagram highlights of warehouse workouts and cool dunks are better than One Shining Moment."
That being said I can feel the spring fever coming. Vaccines are working, covid restrictions are on the verge of dialed back (or should be), Masters is around the corner, less than a month until our annual golf trip which is being renewed after missing last year (year 15, btw), fishing, turkey season, talked my boy into playing baseball. Shewww weee things are looking up!

That's not any fun. I'm your Joker. Batman needs a Joker, bubba.
What are we supposed to make of Isaiah Jackson's draft stock? He seems like a 1st rounder for sure, but I'm not really seeing the lottery buzz. I could see him returning for his sophomore season and putting up some really gaudy numbers. Doubt it will happen, but you never know. At least he's not signing with an agent.
Would love to have Jackson back. Not a chance in hell I'm believing he'll be back.
With GYERO rivalries blazing, and with Kentucky out of the tournament, might be time to bring back the GYERO poster bracket for this year only.
What are you talking about? My boy Tony O'Schem is a hard core centrist.
Nah Bruh, IDGAF about where I come from, just where I am going. But I spit Mountain Dew all over my monitor every time someone uses "catsfag" instead of "catsfan". You rascal, too funny.
BBDicKsmoker. ha ha, lol, OMG, changing peoples handles and making them derogatory names is so funny.
And **** 12 year olds do.
Yep. Sure, he hit all the notes on an aggressive foreign policy and the “culture wars” but was NOT a fan of small government.
A lot of people forget that I won the internet that year.Think this one was from 2006
A lot of people forget that Pat Forde and Dana O'Neil elected me USBWA Poster of the Year in 2015.
The smack offs were the best. I kicked BBdk out of my house after the BCS Championship.

I thought I started lurking this thread a long time ago. That bracket predates me by 3 years 
Those old school Extrav tailgates in the purple lot were WILD. Blasting tunes, shots being thrown down (Blackhaus, rip), randoms showing up... Shewee.
