FITZ appeals to the demographic that doesn't know how to use Twitter.
i'm included in the don't know how to use Twitter group but he DOES NOT appeal to me


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Fitz means well. Is he creepy and full of non info? Yes. But he's always been nice to me and doesn't deserve half the crap he gets from here at times. It's kinda creepy how some gE'rs prey on him. He doesn't give a eff about you, why do some of you care so much about him?

I've posted this before, but his subscribers don't care about scoops/breaking news, they care about their K-state centric viewpoint plus the rivals recruiting network. Honestly, no one touches them when it comes to the overall depth of coverage they provide on KSU sports, and that's why they're successful.

i don't think it's even that.  i think most of them pay him to access an active message board of like-minded fans.  any coverage they provide is like a bonus, which is why no one cares that the coverage sucks.

maybe. keep in mind that I haven't read any of his coverage in years, I just assume people love the Fitz opinion pieces and D. Scott pieces and having beat writers at every game who cover only KSU full-time.

i think they do love the d scott fluff pieces, but i don't think they're paying for that.  i don't think they actually care much about the fitz articles or the other writers' articles, but i think they are paying some for having people that write articles, attend games and press conferences, call recruits, etc. post on the messageboard and respond to posted questions.

like they're not paying for the writing itself, but they are paying for access to people with the implied credibility of being beat/recruiting writers.

they respond with "hard to say" and "he isn't answering his phone" so I guess if that is news then good on them.

I mean, he did try to get fattyfest cancelled. He's legitimately a low quality human, I was just saying his biz is good for him.

Well, that is really dumb. A complete Munson move by him. However, most hate him cause they were dumb enough to pay for a site to blog too and get no real information in return. Those ppl are just plain dumbasses.

I don't know anyone that hates him.  In fact, I don't know any of my friends who actually hate anyone.

You've got an interesting definition of "well intentioned", Wacky.

You're talking about a guy that was on the losing end of a 1/4 million dollar judgement for stealing the complete mailing list of his former employer to start his business.

Dude has more vendettas than most grown men I've ever encountered.

The "Nigel" thread is almost never about Nigel anymore.  It's impossible to predict exactly what it will be about at any given moment, except that it won't be about Nigel!

I'm not trying to start anything, but we've all done some dumb crap. I just don't care about him enough to stalk him on twitter. I get why some go after him, but he just doesn't appeal to me. He tried to jump start my career and reached out to a lot of ppl for me, so maybe that's why I can see past him hitting on college girls and rough ridin' up the Patterson thing for us. :dunno:

He doesn't appeal to a lot of people so you aren't alone.

I mean, it's been a well circulated rumor for a couple weeks now, and neither Nigel or the staff has done anything to squash it, so... :dunno:
