Theory on HJ from someone who claimed to be an insider?

It is extremely weird that you're trying to make this personal and lying while you do it.
It's just time for somebody to stand up to you and stop taking your crap. You could be the person with the most valuable insights but you tarnish it with your attitude. My suggestion would be to fix it before it comes back to bite you in the real world, because it will.
And you feel like you're in a position to dole out life advice to me because... ?
Classic take from Wicker Turk. Yes, people DO die from breast cancer. It's serious stuff dude.
This. I once really respected corbi and gcg posts. They were really full of interesting info and their subsequent dialogue w fellow Board members was engaging. But they both devolved and became bullies. Here’s to the guy that give it back in spades.
FWIW a few moments ago (it is 10:45 AM here in Japan) I just got another notification of a major earthquake in the Philippines. This one 6.5 centered in Kisante, Philippines.
What are you doing over there to keep shaking things up?
That is a jerky thing to say...he was good for us...a good athlete....and his vision of players getting paid is coming soon...he personally had nothing to do with getting snaps at quarterback...coaches decision....and he did good for us...your an ass for spewing that bs.
He was a good player but a bad teammate from all I heard. Players should get paid for their work, but trying to strongarm your team into forming a union isn’t the ideal way to go. I heard a lot of stuff about that situation at the time and am not a fan. We should have been a bowl team in both 2013 and 2014 but those teams fell apart. Those young men didn’t live in a vacuum.
There is no I in team... but there are three in “Kain” + “Union”. There are players who joined unions after they were done playing and God bless them for it. I don’t see the need to mix my favorite collegiate sports team with the complicated labor movement in America.
Joining a union was voted on by the NU players. Stop with the nonsensical Kain hate!
No hatred here. I just said his actions were detrimental to the team and he seemed like a malcontented player.
It was voted down from what I heard.

See ya Willy!
Something doesn't add up.
You do understand that the article you referenced was SEVEN and a HALF YEARS AGO, right? The city turned down all of his requests. So try commenting on something you actually know about. What is the "something"?
But he sought taxpayer money - despite failing the effort was there. Distinguish from Reinsdorf, other than Reinsdorf did a better job and succeeded.
The answer is that the Ricketts used their own money and millionaire Reinsdorf, had Former Governor Thompson in his back pocket, threatened to move the team if he didn't get the state money. Thus the Sox play in TAXPAYER Ballpark.
Jeezus... only at Northwestern. It was a silly little riddle HotlantaCat.
Can you find the third “I”? It’s right in your face if you reread my post.
(Ok I can’t help myself. Three i’s: in, Kain, Union. Boom! Catman’s going trick-or-treating.)
I guess @Alan Smithee , @Fitzphile, and @villox don’t like being tricked by juvenile jokes? Does @IGNORE?

The realities is that he was a malcontent. His constant 'putting himself first' started prior to him getting authorization cards signed. He became a serious distraction that cost us a season and set the program back a few years. Didn't he wear the wristband or some cloth item to draw attention to the player plight? Then came unionization which split 35% of the players agaisnt Fitz. It was alot more than just 'let's get paid'. To Fitz' discredit he was naive and stupid about this and should have stayed out of it and hired a consultant instead of putting his ignorant sense into it. That set him up as a bullseye and then TS sorta stuck up for Fitz and took his majority pack of players against Colter. Not sure how it broke down but you could imagine.
Not surprisingly, wasn't Colter, McCall's guy from Colorado?
And why should players get paid? I support them getting paid for their likeness, which will only be a cash cow for players on playoff type schools. But getting paid to snap the ball? Really? What about High School players? Pee Wee? Otto Graham is rolling over in his grave.
You know what happens when the cost goes up? Yep, fans pay for it. And college kids simply are not professionals and not worth the extra money out of the pocket for a fan to spend.
If they want to get paid then enter the NFL early.
"I think we all want Thorson to start, at least I would like for him to be the starter but it's called competition. And Green is the real deal as well and will earn a scholarship this year imo. He is better than Yates."
But I don't have a side. Whoever starts, starts.

Gocatsgo : "Green isn't a P5 QB"
Hopefully, we get Green back for next year. Guy is a thinking man QB but he might have actually saved McCall's Job. Saving Mick McCall isn't an option now.

These personal attacks on GCG are inappropriate and cross the line...I get that not everyone here likes the guy's delivery, but this is too much (IMHO).
Crossed the line, got deleted, whether the comment was accurate or not got deleted anyway. If the comment had been made to you and me at breakfast, I would’ve nodded and said pass the coffee pot
GCG has earned them and is as much an offender as anyone. So, perhaps your direction will be better received if you spread it around appropriately instead of targeting someone often a target of the PKK. Or just go back to the Rock...
Ummm - @FloridAlum and @CoralSpringsCat - this is the guy you are protecting? Real nice. You guys do good work.
This is all real nice, on a thread that’s about a player dealing with a serious illness in the family.
Grow the f*** up.
Grow the f*** up.
I thought you had to be 13 to sign up for an online account, but i see that's not the case...at least not emotionally.
Sending the best to Hunter and his family.
