The CHB continues blasting the decision by UMass Amherst to honor former men's basketball coach John Calipari and no one cares!
This is not the first time Shank has whined about the pending feting. He made essentially the same argument back in March.
But it's better this time because when The CHB queries UMass president Marty Meehan about the move, the "sports buff and a Massachusetts lifer" completely shoots him down:
In the four months I’ve been on the job as president of the system, I haven’t got one complaint about this from the Amherst campus,’’ said Meehan. “The Amherst campus, the faculty, the dean, the students, they’re not shy. Calipari is very involved with UMass. He’s raised significant money for UMass. He’s contributed to UMass. And we’re a university that needs to get more people to come back and do that.This is why the joke in j-school is that "dumb sportswriter" is redundant: The CHB has his skirt all tied up in knots over something that no one cared about 20 years ago and is even less (if possible) newsworthy today. It's just sports! It's a kid's game!
Everyone (except, apparently, Shaughnessy) knew Coach Cal was cheating long before the NCAA blew its whistle, and Dapper Dan would have known too, had he not been so busy losing bets and scamming the IRS.
Do you think The CHB feels remorse for asking Tom Werner for a job for his daughter, as has been rumored for years?
Do you believe the Elf on the Shelf is real?
He made essentially the same argument back in March.
ReplyDeleteSo, he recycled yet another column? I'm shocked!
One of Mike's more boneheaded studies in what happens when one loses all sense of logic.
ReplyDeleteIt's just a kids game, so cheating doesn't matter? Honoring someone who disgraced two NCAA Div. 1 basketball programs doesn't matter?
Boys, you need a basic tome on logic. I think Amazon delivers to Mom's basement.
"The CHB has his skirt all tied up in knots over something that no one cared about 20 years ago and is even less (if possible) newsworthy today."
ReplyDeleteI was wrong: Actually, there are two people care about this: The CHB and Objective Bruce.
I stand corrected!
It seems that it is our own Bruce M*** that needs a course in remedial logic, as well as reading comprehension. Mike never said nor implied that 'cheating doesn't matter'. He instead pointed out the lack of interest by just about everybody over the sanctions against coach Calipari and do not care about said sanctions as they may or may not affect the upcoming honoring of Calipari. Last I checked, those are two different things.
ReplyDeleteSo next time you post your crap here, Bruce, do try to read what we post twice (three times if it helps), ok? It'll save you from further humiliation and embarrassment. Better yet - stop posting your crap, period. I find bank reconciliations more interesting than your comments, and that's not saying much.
