Generally speaking, change is OK with me. I'm usually all for it, I like change! But maybe you all might proceed with caution in this instance. Based on past experience, you gotta watch out for the BHGP and GIA mods as being a bit more on the woke side of things. They definately aren't journalists, they are fans. And heaven forbid you say anything that isn't toets PC ... or aligned with whatever they think. You might be tagged as a boomer or even a racist. And then your anonymous online profile will get the boot. Gasp!
At least that was my experience on the BHGP forums many, many moons ago. I had lightly suggested a certain talented and successful WR -- who seemed smarmy in his youtube interviews -- was maybe not the most vested team player. His interview comments were very different than the other PC "Kirk-approved" scripted things we've all come to know as gospel. I literally just said "Eh, I'm not a big fan. He seems all about himself." And then holy smokes the woke outrage.
Anyway, my comment (pointing out how he didn't seem on script with the typical KIrk speak) got me labeled a racist. Not even worth mentioning that I said nothing of skin color, race or anything related to social status. I was trying to talk about team sports, chemistry, etc. But that was somehow lost on the woke-ass admins/mods.
Fast forward a few months and said WR was up shit creek for weed-related things, and never got drafted. I'll let you guess who that was. Sad situation overall for said WR, totally wish him well. I think he's coaching small collage ball in PA right now. I live in PA, I'd love to chat with him sometime.
Anyway, I could care less that my fake online message board persona got shamed and banned by some woke dingdongs. I'm more disturbed by the behavior of those mods to get hung up on silly woke group think. And now presumably they might be in charge here? Yikes.
That's not "Iowa Awesome."
PS - Agree, that "Go Iowa Awesome" name has not held up well. They came up with it about a decade ago and it seems very dated. And like an inside joke that no one actually cares about. And not nearly as cool as they think.
PPS - I'll probably get banned for this post. Cheers!
