Hell, the mercury writer could've just posted a link to _FAN having written the story himself right here and saved himself some time.  Not sure how that would've looked in the print version.

If anyone literally has some fucks to give tonight aside from the chant, direct them to Greg Doering on press row, old section 17 style. 

You think he's hurt from this?

I've received some news that has shook up the rankings.


Order of operations for being a stud KSU reporter:

-Rivals - we've had our difference but is and always will be the premier spot for KSU information. no matter who is reporting there the network and resources are unmatched. Literally anyone could take a job there and be respected by me. Don't forget the link! https://kansasstate.rivals.com.

-MHK Mercury - The local (what I call it). Tried and true stud journalist developer thing.

-Wichita Eagle - Former stud factory. Now kind pud factory'ish. Probably ranking it too high based on prior stud factory status.

-Collegian (good sports editor). Pretty good when they have the right dude or dudette in place.

-KC Star/CJ - The fact that the star is now on equal footing with the CJ says more about the star than the CJ

-1350 KMAN - Sometimes I like to hear my KSU scoops instead of read them

-Collegian (bad sports editor) - pretty garbagey when they don't

-MHK Mercury - The local (what I call it). Actually bad.

-Scout - Does scout still have a place?

-Hutchinson/Salina/Dodge City/Etc. papers - May have some stuff that you can read? not sure here

-247/bleacher report/non-sports forums where people sometimes talk about sports - all complete crap that I would never go to and you shouldn't either

I know he read the post I made as well. He asked about the pictures that no longer worked and I sent him those.

I am glad he included another great poster. (Edit)
