I do know that Polky was pushing hard for him to be retained.Quote:

It's a message board, rumors are encouraged! The real issue is that readers take info from here and post on Twitter/X to act like they have the inside scoop.Quote:

What if Parker planted the info on pico last week and then cleaned his office out for the heck of it Tuesday. If so, bravo to you sir. Bravo to you.

John Doe will be our next football coach is a fact. I think John Doe will be our next football coach is an opinion. I heard from a friend that John Doe will be our next football coach is a rumor. Posters need to understand the difference. Too many are presenting rumors and opinions as if they are hard and definitive facts. In doing so, they end up looking like dumbasses.Quote:

It's Buck please. Do you know why he got that name?Quote:
