Team slammed by our own school newspaper. Amazing! No problem with opponents paper or local media. You deserve what you get! But, not home!

not really sure how i feel tbh; i do think its kinda BS for the school paper to slam their own students though?
but weis taken his contention to twitter is def. mind numbing.

The line is only 24.5. Lock of the week.

I'm curious to see the article.

Are you sure that twitter handle is certified?
Posted on 10/4/12 at 3:50 pm to tiggerthetooth
its not "verified" or whatever, but im 99% sure thats really him.
bruce feldman and others seem to think so as well considering they have been retweeting his comments.

I mean they are correct, K-State is gonna make that arse quit...

I guess if the issue is the pic in the OP, well, it's not very professional, but they didn't slam a particular player. He probably should just let it go.
FWIW, I'll also add that the point of view he's coming from is wrong. Yes, it's the school newspaper. That doesn't mean it should be a "rah-rah, KU's awesome!" attitude in articles/publications. It should be objective. If he would be fine with an opponent's newspaper or the Lawrence paper doing that, he should be fine with the school newspaper. It shouldn't make a difference.

I've seen them online, but have not heard anything here. I'm leaning no, but it wouldn't shock me.

How Charlie Weis keeps getting jobs is beyond me
Posted on 10/4/12 at 4:36 pm to rocket31
hey charlie, if you would beat teams like rice and northern illinois, maybe this wouldnt happen. tough shite.
Posted on 10/4/12 at 4:39 pm to rocket31
I'm on CCW's side here. It's bullshite for a school newspaper to throw its own team under the bus like that.

May be a dumb question but I don't really get Twitter. How do you get an account "verified"?

Think it has a blue check mark by the name
