Maybe, but I’d also like to hear the response from Harty, Howe, the guys who run this site, and a few others.I saw David's tweet a few minutes ago and was confused now I know why. Seems petty by Leistikow.
Yep, those attacks can be debilitating, especially when you combine it with ptsd.
Good questions. Also, it seems like some of the guys stayed back to cover the basketball team tonight.1) Do the guys from this site even have press credentials? For the little bit that I had left on my premium sub, they didn't seem to cover a whole lot indepth. Not sure they have the credentials.
2) I probably wouldn't go either. I could just grab my notes from the previous 15 or so pressers and write an article and it wouldn't be inaccurate.
While I understand and sympathize with Eickholt needing to take care of himself, it’s totally unprofessional not to tell bosses who are counting on him to be on site covering Iowa’s preparation for and appearance in a New Year’s Day bowl game.Is this a fight or a misunderstanding? I’m sure if Leistikow knew of Eickholt’s situation he would not have said anything that would be construed against him. Eickholt even said he didn’t tell anyone. Tempest in a teapot.
Agreed, unless there is a back story. But David is a whiner. He feels a need to reply to everyone on twitter. He acts like two people on twitter saying something has any relevance. You can tell he wants to be friends with the players as much as being a professional.I don't think Leistikow's tweet was aimed specifically at David.
I agree. I took it more as a note that those on-site would be the only ones with direct access, i.e - anything 'breaking' would have had to come from one of them to be legit.I don’t get the impression that anything Leistikow said was meant to be critical of those not in attendance
I could throw race in there too to disparage others if I was a douchebag like YouGeezus, these old white dudes are embarrassing. Little bitches with little skill set.
A whiner with silly panic attacks. What a guy.Agreed, unless there is a back story. But David is a whiner. He feels a need to reply to everyone on twitter.

Good luck on your dietI could throw race in there too to disparage others if I was a douchebag like You
your racist ass is more embarrassingGeezus, these old white dudes are embarrassing. Little bitches with little skill set.
Nothing to do with panic attacks. He’s a fanboy.A whiner with silly panic attacks. What a guy.
What led to Harty being let go? Just jot enough of a budget?Chad probably wasn’t calling anyone out specifically, but I’m sure he’s aware of how insanely jealous Pat Harty is of him since Pat got canned from the Press Citizen.
Pat repeatedly bashes Chad on his podcast without saying Chad’s name specifically. It’s funny because Harty doesn’t even proof read his own shit. Then he bashes Chad’s quality of work at an actual newspaper. Pat’s a very bitter individual.
This^^^. It’s a dog eat dog industry right now. They’re all fighting for subscribers and clicks. I don’t fault Chad at all pointing out who’s there and who’s not. They made the investment which I’m sure wasn’t cheap and are looking to promote their brand. Simple as that.If anything, the tweet is a comment on the current state of reporting. Four journalists have someone paying for them to be at the Hawkeye bowl game. Newspapers basically don't exist. Harty and co can't justify the expense of being there, and just write columns from afar.
Kakert is a sad sack of shit.They all pretty much write the same vanilla stuff. Then they circle jerk and pat each other on the back about how great each others articles are. Not sure what Dorkterman said but Kakert chimed in with kind of a snide reply. He has really turned into a Dbag though. Face for radio and a voice for newspaper. Had to listen to his whiney voice a lot on AM radio.
Kluver tweeted something about working from Waukee. But when you have to search and search on X for the story and it takes awhile before it shows up here, I'm not sure how necessary it is to reply to it.
All of those guys should worry more about getting up the nerve to ask a follow up question when they get some line of BS about Deacon playing really well at QB and winning games. But hey read my article about Brian talking to us!
What an adorable exchange..
That David guy is just a big baby. He wanted to make it about him.Was what Chad tweeted really that bad? It sounds like the replies might have been bad.
But Chad’s tweet just seems to say not many media are covering the game.

This.The profession, in general, is full of self important douchebags.

I guess some could say some are not wired to see a Dentist on a regular basis too .I updated my post above with Tom's now deleted tweet
And I think he meant "fortunately" instead of "unfortunately."
Sorry, maybe not a diet but good luck with the hair transplant. Very young to have that hairline. Must be missing a chromosomeGood luck on going thru life with a big mouth and small nuts , PS now You can look Me up by face to help Me with that diet..
Just listen to Dirty Laundry by Don Henley. That’s most of the media. Sensational self absorbed ratings whores.The profession, in general, is full of self important douchebags.
