Tonight's guest on This Is Our Show...

[dawgstudent]

is Ian Rapoport. He was our beat writer for the last year(s) of Jackie and the Croom hire. I think he left right at the start of Croom's first year. He then went on to cover Alabama for the Bham news, was the Patriots beat writer for the Boston Globe, and now is a reporter for NFL Network and NFL.com.


If you have any questions for him - please post here. Sorry for the late post about this - I forgot.

Besides national prominence, what is the difference, in his opinion in the way MSU-OM fans look at the rivalry vs
the way Alabama-Auburn fans look at theirs?

Having covered both Belichek and Saban....

....which one likes Ian more?

Also, I'm not certain when Ian started, but he definitely covered Croom's first season and probably 2005 as well. Kyle didn't come on until about 2/3rd the way through the 2003 season, and I know Mike Wallace filled in some there in-between, but not for too terribly long.

Has he hired a caddie to watch for errant punts now?
