It's almost as if Hugh has realized one half of his readership is about to not care about football for the forseeable future and wants to make nice with the other half he's crapped on for several years now.

I liked the article... but the down thumb button clearly says Clarion Ledger... not sure what to do.

17 Kellenburger and the CL. Hope it goes out of business. Too many other places to get honest info without the OM slant and protectionism.

Yeah. I think Hugh is beginning to realize he's been on the wrong bandwagon.

lots of sucking up by the CL, Hugh and Barrett Sally lately. Just feels extremely odd..... like something very bad is going to happen.

Yup. 17 him and his paper printing henchmen. Still not clicking. Have turned to the CL in years past for unbiased journalism and gotten slapped in the face with a plantation owner's dick. Killaburger, take your offer of penance and shove it.

At his worst, I like HughK much more than Sallee. Sallee makes my skin crawl.

I wish Dan would avoid him in the future.

In pretty sure very few MSU fans read the CL these days

The famous "Thanks Ole Miss" article was the straw that broke the camels back with me on reading the CL. The good ole days of the CL were during the late 90's early 2000's when you could pick up a paper on Saturday mornings in the Fall and read good write-ups about all the important statewide high school football games from the night before, and also interesting pieces about all the big 3 college football programs and their games for the day. Somewhere around 2006-2007 they started focusing on just the Jackson area high school teams (no matter how terrible they were) instead of the Dandy Dozen and they started over reporting about all things Ole Miss. And if MSU or USM tried to do anything important it got downplayed or not reported at all. Enough was enough for me after we won the SEC in baseball for the first time since the late 80's and all we get from them was a slap in the face article about how we couldn't win it without help from our rival.

^^^^^^^^^Thank you. ^^^^^^^^^^^
What has become a punchline for us has been a decades-long systematic de-valuing of anything not Ole Miss. Don't mean to beat a dead horse, but,... well, yes, yes I'm am going to beat this dying horse because this particular horse has ditched it's industry's core values to **** on State, and wasn't even talented enough to make it entertaining or subtle. Now it's prime time to put this crippled mudder out to pasture by making it survive off a program on life support.

It wasn't just the "thanks UM" article and headline. The even bigger issue was the fact that a Mississippi school won an outright SEC championship in a big sport and it was just a small article in the lower right of the sports page. This should have been half of the front page of the paper, plus half of the front page of the sports section and another page or so in the sports section.
