 aaronjk55Hill's replacement hasn't been officially announced. That said, it wouldn't surprise me to see the announcement in a day or two

four years with no turnover is notable.

Pretty sure this is calling out Jeffery Martin because he never wears ties to work, thus "does not want to get ahead".

[Stevesie60]

"Hey Andy. Frank here. How you doing? Listen, I need you to write an article about me loving it here at K-State. Yeah, yeah, kind of like what Jim did for me a few months ago. You know, something like, yeah, I talked about the Miami job a lot and acted butthurt about not getting a call, but that I'm happy and stuff even though I'm stuck in Manhattan for a while longer. You know, something to calm everyone down. Make it good. Alright, thanks Andy."

of course it is. it's just such a frank thing to quickly point that out. which i'm not even saying is a bad thing. not at all actually.

Also, Curtis Kitchen said this.  Sharing is caring.

Frankly I think Tort is the biggest giver on the board.

New board name: The Stinky Nobodies?  Just spitballin' here.

To say sports media have a face isn't right. To say sports media have many faces is correct. And, to say many of those faces are pretty silly is absolutely true.

Let's look at who is responsible for your team's coverage. (I bet you instantly can think of some names as you read through the list ...)

The kid - My hot sports takes are fresh, even when they aren't. My age means I get athletes better than anyone, especially on the college level. I show up for media events either in a tie or in the clothes I slept in - depending on motivation. My experience has been limited to my campus media outlets, and feedback has been limited mostly to my mom telling me how amazing I am, so this media thing will be cake. I'll be national in no time.

[Kat Kid]

The former athlete: I was the bain of Howard Cosell's existence -- the former athlete who played, perhaps even well, and gets a media gig even though I can't speak or write worth a lick. I'm expected to provide dynamite insight and get inside the minds of coaches and players, but I'm better-known for providing a series of stuttered cliches while slaughtering the English language. That's on a good day. There are many examples of where, with years of practice, I became a solid contributor. But, there are many more of us who should have been left on the broadcasting bench.

Finishing death move: Getting asked an unrehearsed question by my broadcasting partner, or asking me to handle in-game interviews.

I haven't finished yet, but which silly media personality doesn't use spell check/know difference between homophones?

[Trim]

The I'm-too-good-for-this-but-I'm-here-anyways: I sulk around the press box and occasionally pipe up to make a snarky, condescending remark about a coach, player or another media member. That's if I'm not staring at my music or food blog, which is really what I'd love to spend all my time on. I'd dress like a hipster, but a media salary doesn't allow for such luxuries, so I make do with old jeans, a worn out pair of shoes and my canvas shoulder bag.

Finishing death move: Act bored. Browse restaurant reviews during the game.

 

[Kat Kid]

That is pretty mean spirited.

Don't piss off Trim I guess is the lesson here.

This one wasn't hard.  I doubt anyone who was at that fateful houliPAK doesn't immediately think tie/mini-Andy Katz whenever Kitchen's name comes up.

[steve dave]

yes, confirmed

[steve dave]

I still think about it every time I see andy katz wearing a tie and lol (not like actually laugh out loud but like I think about how absurd it was to myself)
