Didn't realize how ridiculous he was.
Can't wait to watch that Fortune 500 company tonight.

Re: Fun Rothstein Feature on Deadspin
Thanks for posting the story, TP...interesting.
Nothing harmful about his kind of enthusiasm...you have to love his (usually over-the-top) love for Rhody, too. Nothing malicious, just fun and sometimes funny...sorta like sports is supposed to be.
"Rothstein seems to delight in these catchphrases, although to be fair he seems to delight in everything having to do with his job and his sport and the month of March."
"Part of what makes Jon Rothstein so compelling as an online meme and character relates back to what makes him successful in real life as a reporter—his earnest passion for the game and the people involved, his avid appreciation for the emotional overage that is the best and most fundamental reason to watch college basketball. "

His love for Rhody will likely wane with Hurley now gone. You can probably expect to get a lot less media coverage from all sources going forward.

I would think they'd get plenty of coverage if they're "good", or someone like 'he who can't be reasonably talked about' is named HC...RF1 wrote:His love for Rhody will likely wane with Hurley now gone. You can probably expect to get a lot less media coverage from all sources going forward.

National media coverage will definitely go down. Hurley is a tireless self promoter - which benefited us the last six years with his relationship with Rothstein, Zags, etc - and brought us back to where we belong. Now we need the next coach to bring us where we want to go.NYGFan_Section208 wrote:I would think they'd get plenty of coverage if they're "good", or someone like 'he who can't be reasonably talked about' is named HC...RF1 wrote:His love for Rhody will likely wane with Hurley now gone.

He loves URI and Providence, but I think it might be an excuse to hit Rhode Island restaurants.
