They have a few part timers. Not sure of Zac Carlson's status or not but if he's part time, fitz is the only full timer and remember he is home bound for the most part because of his cancer.

Repost in honor of Fritch - few love K-State more...

As most people know, the weekly Bill press conferences are pretty much a waste of everyone's time because Bill never actually answers any questions with any amount of substance. So, what typically happens, is most "reporters" don't even bother to ask questions and it's usually the same 3-4 people that ask most of the questions. As we can all probably guess, one of those people is Fritchen.

I can't remember for certain, but I think it was back in 99 during the press conference before K-State played at Nebraska. As Fritchen is prone to doing, he asked this incredibly long-winded question that took about an hour for him to spit out. It was basically something like "Bill, can you talk about what it's like being in a stadium like Nebraska's with 80,000 fans, a historic stadium, they're all yelling before the game, you're underneath the stadium and you can hear them yelling and you're trying to get your players ready for the game (it goes on and on and on and then ends with) can you tell us what you're actually doing right before you take the field?"

Bill pauses for about 10 seconds (probably mocking the fact that Fritch took five minutes to ask a question) and then Bill says, "What's that game that the youngsters like? Chutes and Ladders? Is that what it's called? That's what we do."

It's rough ridin' ridiculous. The amount of people on that board who are only happy when others are in misery seems way out of wack with the rest of civilization. I mean when ol boy tossing sandwiches, there were a ton of jokes here, and that was all fair. However, the amount of celebrating over that man losing his job, because they don't like his writing style, is sick.

Exactly.  It's infuriating.  People should be ashamed of themselves.

Totally. It’s really gross, and permeates almost every thread.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Why are gE numbers down right now? Doesn’t take a rocket science to understand sports blogs are down during a pandemic, especially ones you have to pay for.

Do you believe you reap what you sow?

if you do, you'll understand why D Scott gets what he gets

Sarcasm font on thick. I like it.

Agreed... he was either the most dense person in America or just being a dbag. I was happy for him and his family that he was sobering up but annoyed how the GPC faithful decided he couldn’t be mocked in any way afterward.

Quote
It's exactly the same way people would hold a player accountable for their actions during a play, except this is more important because it's real life and not a game.

People are a reflection of their actions... He can act as "above" it as he wants to, that doesn't change his actions, or how he has treated people since then. I can't count the amount of times people were banned just because they disagreed with something and Dscott replied in the most condescending way possible, until it eventually ended with Fitz banning that person for disagreeing and not just taking the verbal assault Dscott threw at them.

Quote
Is it ok to not like him b.c he is a human pos who treats waitresses extremely disrespectful and sleezy when he and fatman would frequent their bar? Just wondering what is ok to have disdain for him and what isn't? How about this, he and fatman asking said waitresses to head back to a motel with the two of them for some "extra" fun? I have plenty of other stories similar to this one as well that have been verified by more than one person.

I mean what line do you draw so I know not to cross it??


There's a few more but I'll stop. Admittedly, on their own, it isn't like someone is calling his wife ugly and his daughter a whore, nothing that atrocious. However, it's just unnecessarily piling on. It's the same 5 or so miserable dipshits yuk yuking it up, all the time, always playing billy badasses, never treating people like actual humans; mracat, rowdypemaw, jarjar, ksufan684, ccox, thebalo, those dudes are toxic all of the time. I don't want to speak for dlew but if you're reading over there a lot, it can get old when every topic devolves into shitting on someone.

I mean we literally have a carbon copy of that thread calling him an Aggieville Creepster delighting in his downward spiral to rehab and live tweeting the whole thing while he was there.   As a side note it was a great re read and your stance has remained unbelievable consistent 5 years later which is remarkable and I really admire you for that.

Was this a planned-out thing for some time, like D.Scott had a contract running through September but it was known for a while that it wouldn't be renewed?  Strange timing to assume there's no revenue to justify the employee when football is now actually happening and KSU fans are excited about it this week.

If it was just about being broke, Fitz should've furloughed him (or negotiated some adjustment to any contract) that would have D not working from April through when football was back, and then tried to sell more business with the combo of "football and D.Scott's stories are back!"  Or get even cheaper/free student labor and cut D's salary and see if it gets better.

Just because someone was an aggieville creepster 10 years ago doesn't mean they cant change and become a better person.

Goddamnit, I just skimmed a shitload of the aggieville creepster thread before figuring out there’s a separate equally long D Scott-specific aggieville creepster thread.

I think gE had moved way on.  Sad to see anyone with a family lose employment, but to be fair, if you are basing your long term financial viability on writing for GPC even before corona you were ignoring the obvious.  I hope he finds a new gig quickly
