I was talking with Trim on twitter yesterday and I was confused about something. I enjoy this board a lot, but I still don't understand the hate for Gopowercat! I feel like i'm missing the story. Fill me in! Did you get burned by them or something? I'll go ahead and hang up and listen off the air. :ck:

It's Patterson!!!

It's Patterson!!!
We could be entering our third season....

gpc hate predates the patterson stuff by a lot. it goes way deeper. don't cheapen gpc hate.
-
I've never been to GPC before, probably will go when they sell the site to goEMAW LLC though.

It's not worth a penny. Ravi can have it.

Main home for the "GoPowerTard"

Look, if you don't understand the hate, you don't belong here.

Yeah, I got burned by them. :frown:
-
cause it costs money!

Would read if someone gave me a "Guest card"

have you ever re-watched something you loved as a kid only to realize what a massive turd it was now that you are older.
thats kinda how I feel when I go back onto gpc.

Umm, cool! :jerk:

look at all you young bucks.

I don't see how anyone who has spent any amount of time on both boards would "not understand the hate". Perhaps if you are a tuck. Are you a tuck?

I forget who posted the $5 KSU hats at lids.com last week
But thanks! Mine came today and they are suweeeet! The camo visor is money!
That pretty much sums it up.
-
it's sickening that people think gopowercat hate is because of the patterson fiasco. kinda makes me feel like they're getting a free pass.
sounds like it's time to go to a rebel rebel bbs :bracketmouse:
-
I don't hate gopowercat. as a kstate fan, It's kind of bummer though. they have the ability to provide great kstate coverage and instead choose to hang out on aggieville barstools all day and tweet Dick jokes to highschool girls. oh well. and by they, I think you know who I mean. it could just be so much better than it is. it's just kind of depressing.
I mean, god forbid that someone with an enjoyment of kstate sports actually has some sort of standard or expectation for something better. there's just a "oh well, better than nothing blind leading the blind mentality" that permeates that place.
-
Rob Cassidy does a great job over there. If they lost him...oh man.
-
I understand why they don't change it....I mean, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. They are serving up exactly what a large majority of our fans want. Sure it would be nice if it was applied as we would like it, but I have a feeling there is more money for less investment in how they are running it now.
-

Has goEMAW thought about hiring him?

hate is definitely the wrong word.
-
I can understand most of these reasons. I've never been a "member" over there. I've always used friends accounts, and I can assure you that I would never waste money for any message board site. That sucks though. I guess I never understood it, because doing sports radio at 91.9, I use to work with Fitz a lot. He definately "has his way" with the ladies! haha

hatred is fun and almost free. most people hate less than is optimal.

I get a kick out of gopowercat, but mostly because some of the "OT" stuff is so absurd.
As far as the sports coverage goes, it just seems like they're a bunch of lazy reporters (save for RC) giving boring information to a bunch of naive cotton-tops.

cassidy is lazy, but is good at what he does, and does work that is incredibly important. the others are lazy and either not good at what they do, or do stuff that has no value.

When it comes to sandwich coverage, nobody beats Cassidy. I would trust no one else to give me a solid sandwich review.

i used to trust corcoran, but it seems like they don't have sandwiches in houston.
-
I personally didn't care for the type of clientele they had been attracting in the last few years, and I felt the quality of the content, overall, was starting to drop significantly. Less recruiting updates, more game recaps (which I didn't need to pay for considering I got those for free elsewhere), and a lot of the writing was very formula driven.
Cassidy was the only one still writing there when I left that had ability.
And unlike some of the folks here, I don't really have a problem with Fitz. I just felt like the guys he was farming his work out to (aside from Cassidy) weren't worth my money, and 90% of the people posting on his message boards weren't people I'd want to consort with outside of that message board, so I decided to come to a place where I liked the posters and felt like I got more for, well, nothing.

both of you should trust my tortas frontera Rick bayless ord review that I gave in a diffy thread this morning. move over rob and corcoroach, there's a new sandwich reviewer in town and he's got so many sandwich scoops, you'd think his last name was callahan. it's not BTW.

bigDpowercat thought the Old Snyder video was funny and was soon blacklisted and then a month later permenately kicked off

hate is definitely the wrong word.
you mean if your audience is white midwesterners?
Hating GPC is like hating your uncle who loves speedboats and Bud Light and says odd, borderline offensive things at family functions. You definitely wouldn't want to hang out regularly and probably don't agree with him on much, but he is entertaining for a variety of reasons in small doses.

OK, you win.

Wouldn't say hate. Most of them are perfectly fine, nice people. But most of their views are different than mine.
Also, It's Patterson.

All of the above, plus their treatment of BruinPatti.

Was that a rape joke? :fatty:

Go Man, you would have made a great candidate for president of K-State 50-100 years ago when the farmers and beakers around the state wanted it limited to teaching agriculture. Wefald is writing a book about it. EMAW
This. This X 1million.

Student leaders were unwilling to even take the public transit issue to the student senate for consideration of student fees to support it. With all due respect to students, if they really wanted public transit, one would think they'd have taken a step to increase fees to help pay for it. It was the lack of a long term commitment that caused the tea party commission to say 'no thanks.' I also always thought public transit had a place in Manhattan. But I was surprised at the lack of commitment to a long term plan from the university and student body particularly. EMAW
if i ever came across bob strawn in a darkened cornfield or anywhere like that that's good for violence, i swear, i don't know.

-

I'm sure it's no surprise that this same poster used the term virtue signaling the same day. Who do we think he's talking about?
goEMAW died about 10 years ago when all their super important folks became social media activists. They had a lot of fun stuff before that
Deadspin lite
-
Maybe he's talking about wackycat

Damn I didn’t know I’ve been a walking corpse for a decade :sdeek:

Who are the social activists on Twitter
-
Me and chunkles, I'm not important either place, he's real important there, not sure what either has to do with the board

It was probably posted by wackycat, making reference to wackycat

Agreed, those 6 page in one day threads on kso generally don't provide any more information. The biggest thread about Coleman Hawkins is 9/10 about mustard.
