I can assure you that my “retirement” should barely be considered news at all - nevermind anything closely resembling “big”.Rhody1992 wrote:John Vanner the hype man is retiring after this season per Bill Koch.. I’m assuming not the big news being discussed.

Maybe you knew that BillyBoy, but A keaneyBlue poster started a separate thread for this, then this AM a Moderator combined the thread into this Birdmanjrjr thread so obviously many were fooledBillyboy78 wrote:He's a kid who goes to URI.

Who were the "many" that were fooled? I'm counting you, apparently, and maybe the guy who started the other thread. The kid has a blog he's trying to promote and tweeted a teaser for it. I don't see what is harmful or unusual about that.ramster wrote:Maybe you knew that BillyBoy, but A keaneyBlue poster started a separate thread for this, then this AM a Moderator combined the thread into this Birdmanjrjr thread so obviously many were fooledBillyboy78 wrote:He's a kid who goes to URI.

Exactly. The kid is a URI student and a great Rhody fan. He has his own website and he is also the one who contributes to A10Talk on twitter. I applaud him for that. He doesn't have any info on what goes behind closed doors at the RC. He might give you some info on something he sees on campus such as the fact he saw Jalen Lindsey and Makai Ashton-Langford at the rap concert a few weeks back at the RC. Was that at all related to the incident? Who knows. He just said he saw them there. But, he is a great fan, just as we are. We need more like him.TruePoint wrote:Who were the "many" that were fooled?

Saturday, January 13th on ESPNU at 11 am which is a pretty odd time. I'm not sure if Gameday will start airing at that point of the year.

I believe that is the divisional playoff round in the NFL, which means there will be two (presumably) great pro football games on Saturday, potentially featuring the Patriots. An early start time is likely key to getting any kind of attendance for the game at all.rhodysurf wrote:Students still gone tooRhowdyRam02 wrote:Saturday, January 13th on ESPNU at 11 am which is a pretty odd time.

I didn’t delete, cancel or edit the thread. I thought someone modirating the board did because some posters were pissed off about it.ramster wrote:TruePoint wrote:ramster wrote:
TP,
You are exactly right. Runnin Rhody did a teaser on twitter to promote his own article that he was coming out with the next day. BUT, what you are saying is easy to say the next day after the article comes out.
Rhody83 said "More news coming tomorrow per Runnin Rhody." This was posted in a separate thread.
Then later, this separate thread got eliminated and merged into the "Big News Forthcoming???" Thread. I am assuming you moved it or someone else with the power to modify/move stuff here. Wouldn't moving that thread infer that the person moving it was "fooled" also? Why move it to theBirdmanjrjr thread if one did not think it was associated with the BIG NEWS? Or maybe Rhody83 cancelled his own thread and put it in "Big News Forthcoming???" Doesn't really matter who did it.
Look at Runnin Rhody's twitter also and you will see responses thinking there was, in fact, news coming out, and did not think it was just an article he had written that would be coming out the next day. How many here thought it was an article coming out versus more twitter banter about theBirdmanjrjr "Big News Forthcoming???"
My question is why in the world wouldn't you be fooled? Reading it sounds like theBirdmanjrjr's news it about to spill "tomorrow". Makes perfect sense that this would be merged into the "Big News Forthcoming???" thread. I thought it at the time - why is Rhody83 making a separate thread for a tweet that seems related to "Big News Forthcoming???" Then a few hours later it did get merged to the "Big News Forthcoming???" thread.
So doesn't that make the person who moved it "fooled" also?
But if I'm one of the very few that were fooled then so be it - I'm just stupid
