I'll never take pleasure in seeing another man lose his job. I've worked with Glenn a bit back in the day on radio shows, and in person he's a nice guy.

However, his relentless attacks on the program have really put me off. It's healthy to have differing viewpoints, but at some point, it's just contrarianism for the sake of contrarianism.

Hopefully at his next stop, Glen can engage in some good faith journalism and leave the craziness out of it.

Was it Glenn that got very upset with The Advocate where he was working during Hurricane Gustav, on how he was treated during all that craziness?

Gustav was in 2008. Who’s going to remember something so trivial from over 15 years ago?

That was Carl Dubois.

Dubois had sleep apnea and slept wearing one of those breathing mask devices.

The hurricane had knocked out his electricity in his home so he wanted to sleep on the floor next to his desk at the newspaper which had power so he could plug in his breathing device.

His boss told him he couldn't do that. So Dubois quit (or got fired, I don't remember which).

Not sure Paul. Maybe someone with a memory like the poster I responded to that worked with him.

May the Bird of Paradise fly up his nose, may an elephant caress him with his toes, and may his wife be plagued with runners in her hose!

I’m an unapologetic fan of Moscona’s.

And this is 100% spot on. They love them some selves.

Glenn seems to have out-kicked his coverage as far as his writing skills.

Yes

It’s one thing to provide a counter-balance against effusively positive/homer articles about a team or organization. It’s another to purposefully troll and irritate said team/organization as a basis for existence.
No, we don’t always need sunshine pumping.
No, we also don’t need this douche canoe spewing his bile.

Kim Mulkey got on his arse pretty hard in several press conferences is it possible that Kim let Woody know that Glenn isn’t welcome anymore and that he needs to disappear. So if they sent word that he is no longer welcome on the LSU beat, Outkick may have just said to themselves he isn’t worth keeping around.

You assume he is capable of this. I am dubious of it as I've never seen evidence of it. That's what probably got him kicked outta Outkick!
