The piece was a slam nothing more, nothing less. Tell me it was anything else.
Informative, no.
Anything new, no.
Great timing, no.
Did he spin, YES.
If that is what you expect from journalism well keep on reading his hit pieces. The PJS is a very mediocre paper at best. Journalism standards have gone to the pits the last 10 years, so now even the Wall Street Journal is starting to look like a urinal.

It's not like I have a lot of choice here as BU BB has not/is not making headline article's any where else As for the Wall St. Jour., there to is not much they can do to sugar coat their articles

Plenty of choices here my friend. That's the beauty of life and living in America, we all have choices. He just choses one where he opens himself to exposing his deep rooted issues to the public if he likes it or not. I see this all the time and I myself fight those urges of self destruction. I could speak on this issue for quite some time because it all has to do with how you feel about yourself when it is all said and done. Tornado goes for the jugular, which makes me laugh, more times then not, but I'm a bit empathic with these type of characters. It really has to do with patience of how to deal with those that have venom within their soul.

oob -- can you show me where I have recommended anything of the kind as you suggest...
have I not, in this very thread, said this --->>>.......that his column is just stirring the pot and I have no problem with it..
I didn't start the thread..
and I didn't even respond until the thread was going almost 12 hrs..
and just about everything I said is summed up with this comment... "btw -- I don't have a problem with this column"
on the same page as that comment, at least 10 other posters ripped Wessler saying... "it took 685 words to say absolutely nothing..you're just wasting the reader's valuable time!
..this is complete garbage!!!!"
"Well that was pointless drivel"
"I don't care to waste my time with what he has to say"
"..under-handed journalism! ..a pathetic writer.."
" twisting them into innuendo.. half-baked story..ramblings … KW has lost his journalistic integrity and the PJS should fire his butt."
I think, oob, you should be fair and lay the blame for whatever violence you wish to commit on someone else, not me...

Did not mean it the way you took it So I changed it to what I meant for it to say That is, the choices for me to read current news/articles for BU BB is limited to a couple web sites and one paper. Sorry I got you all up set, friend But I do agree with you on, we all have choices So I choose to not hate anyone or wish bad things up on them, just because he writes articles for a news paper My hate is for all the basters of the world who pry upon the weak, poor, the young,old and the ones who hurt/kill Innocent people My Choice Friend
I don't hate anyone either....but I do add comments on certain opinion pieces, and disagree with some of them...
so I guess disagreement equates in some people's eyes to hating...
things change, like 78RPM to 45RPM to 8-track to cassettes to DVD's to MPG's......
we are seeing that trend in the information highway...
grunts ---> cave painting --> Rosetta Stone ---> 10 Commandments ---> Dead Sea Scrolls ---> Gutenberg Press ---> modern newspapers ---> bloggers ---> YahooSports ---> mobile browsers ---> information overload and people just don't have time to read a newspaper anymore
I haven't been around in a while, and I did not read the article until today.
WOW.....this is a long thread, for what is basically just a small piece explaining how the A.D. might judge a coach.
First, I thought the article did a great job of laying out how any coach at BU can be expected to be evaluated on his/her job. I, for one, never knew exactly what was in the evaluation group.
I think that A.D. Cross did an excellent job of talking about how even 1 of those categories can be the reason for firing OR for retention. I found that extremely interesting.
Secondly, I liked the ending of the piece. I felt it summed up the article very well.
So we return to what we see on the court.
???I believe,??? Cross told us, ???we have all the requisite support necessary to compete at the highest levels in the Valley.???
I don't know how or why this led to such animosity and discussion. The article simply brought up a topic on many people's mind. It addressed it with the man who actually can answer it. Nothing wrong with that.
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

If you don't understand why most people have a problem with this poorly written piece of "journalism" BradleyJD then that might explain why you are in the vast minority with your opinion.......

T, don't even try to play the roll of a saint here After years of reading your posts of your dislike towards the PJS and their writers, you above all came to my mind as the person that best fit the character in my far fest post. Violence Come on Man It was just a sarcastic comment with NO harm meant to anyone by anyone Nice Try But if it will make you feel better, being the man I am You get your pass on this one Hope you feel better now and have a great day
As for the Wall St. Jour., there to is not much they can do to sugar coat their articles
