I read a lot of dissent from said e-mail, but what the article failed to mention was the specific content of the offending article. If the gist of the article were about not being totally butthurt, then I would say that PR news ethically and responsibly couched their message. But what do I know? I'm not a PR pro living in Wichita.

It apparently was so offensive that it couldn't be repeated.

With each successive quote I felt the urge to c/p into this thread, but eventually I realized that would require c/p'ing the entire article, and that would be just silly. Seriously, folks, read that article and savor the quotes - especially the threats regarding unsubscribing from the e-mail blast. Power to the PRpl!

I've reached out to @PRNews to see if they'll get us the details.

I just read that an hour ago and was wondering what the the PR piece was actually referring to. The article never stated.

If it just means "don't lose" then Shocker fans really need to grow up.

Good for PR News. Keitzman still hasn't apologized to Jacob Pullen.

They lose a couple of there big men and the other Wiggans, but yea, most of their good players besides Early should be back. They should run the train on the MVC again

Ron Baker would get destroyed in the NBA.

Nothing? Ok, cool.

Headinjun · « **Reply #592 on:** April 04, 2014, 01:21:56 PM »

RB defends, and isn't afraid to drive to the basket.

I think he could at least be a solid backup.

He received a second round grade. Second round players generally get destroyed in the NBA.

He doesn't have NBA talent imo.

FranklyFrankYou · « **Reply #595 on:** April 04, 2014, 07:28:34 PM »

He was having a hard time guarding one of the Harrison's. He could barely stay in front of him and neither of the Harrison's are renowned for their speed on or off the ball. Granted, they both had a length advantage but Baker was an absolute defensive liability in that second half. He is an elite level shooter though

You guys haven't brought one compelling thought to the table, so I'll just assume you guys don't think he's an NBA player cause he's white and from a small town in Kansas.

CASE CLOSED!
