apology accepted because I remember more than one poster here claiming the star liar was on the way out
I believe many of the star liar's newspaper articles can be found on NJO.com
OK have a good day , no need for me to argue with you about people I don't know and ones you seem to have more inside knowledge about .
I won't try to answer for others, but the Josh and Ted era made me feel a media outlet wasn't unbiased and lied about Rutgers enough to make RU fans feel they had to buy an ad in that paper so the truth would be told.
You are one of the more grounded and reasonable posters on this board. I agree the role of the NJ newspapers and media sites that host the NJ newspapers is to not be cheerleaders for RU.
There is zero chance you knew anything about an unknown coach from Northern Illinois to "not want him here" a decade ago
Amazing what a corrupt media can accomplish. Sadly, unless there's a way to truly fact check ANY TOPIC 100%, the general public can be guided to any conclusion on any topic. Scary times to say the least and don't care what side of the this debate or aisle you reside.
Correct. But I meant as HC pre Schiano 2.0 as some on this board wanted.
Fleck seems to have matured. He does not seem to be his old self with emphasis on corny sayings and has grown. Heck, he doesn't even look like his old self. Apparently, he had a bungee cord accident, resulting in some facial surgery. I'd take 11-2/7-2, then 3-4, 9-4/6-3 and 9-4/5-4 over four seasons even if the coach was the world's biggest cornball.
So, in your world, all this stuff at Minnesota is 100% true and Fleck is a creep.. got it. How could anyone have wanted the results he brought to Central Michigan or Minnesota, where, in his 6 years he has had a 11-2 and two 9-4 seasons. We don't need anything like that around here.
I don't think anyone is arguing that they don't print positive pieces. That has not been the point. The point is that they go out of their way more than enough times to lead one to conclude that they like to (or at least tend to) smear Rutgers.
when the negative feeling over how Rutgers was covered over the years can be overcome by fair and balanced coverage then and only then will that site be considered a newsworthy one when it comes to RU sports.
Who said that? I just don't like the way the guy comes off. I have no idea if any of the allegations are true or not. But cornball 'row the boat' stuff and all the rest of it - not for me that's all.
Fair enough. But the timing of "I never wanted him here" in a thread about this "news" seems like it is a "I told you so" kinda thing.
I ahree with everything.
That was Flood, and they could have had a subtext- the ominous parallels of two proteges. Nonsense, but as Michael Corleone said "They might like a story like that, right?"
So being a child or spouse abuser only a little bit of the time is OK if you are nice most of the time? I made the analogy above- so once in a while, cheap backhand slaps to Rutgers' face are OK if they are nice at other times?
I will agree with you if that's what NotinRHouse said. And I have indicated they do write some good stuff. And I have no problem with objective critical journalism. The problem a lot of us have with the Start Ledger/NJ.com is their negative/slanted framing of headlines that unnecessarily paint Rutgers in a bad light like the original story in this thread and dragging out false facts to knock the University down.
