Where you repeated your feeble retorts about billboards and the Arizona AD? Speaking of being put in your place, does DOC stand for Department of Corrections? Are you responding from the prison computer lab? If so you're getting more than a spanking, I'm sure. You advocated for 2 things. One was a forgone conclusion that you felt the need to start a movement of five people over. It wasn’t needed goofball. Your other target was May. He’s still here. No need to lie about something your proud of. And if you think these comments about me are funny or are somehow spanking me you’re nuts.

Didn't you advocate to have the complaints in one thread? Then when it happened you went into that thread to complain about complaining? You're right about one thing, May is still here. Have we seen a different athletic department lately? Yeah it's been a lot different. I wonder why? Hmmm, could it be the drum beat online by multiple sources that he should be fired? Could it be the national level embarrassing stories that leaked? Interesting choice of words buddy. When does the Department of Corrections computer lab close? Don't drop the soap.

I almost forgot where you advocated for SLU to hire the disgraced Arizona AD - thanks for the reminder That didn't come to "fruition" and Chris May is still in power. And advocating for Ford to be fired - wow, truly visionary. No one else had that idea. So thankful you led the charge You couldn't even get your billboard up! This was all about the big boys stepping up, which was no surprise. The adults took care of it. Meanwhile, the children were playing around with fantasies of "grassroots movements." You are desperately grasping to try to be relevant on this board, so you've resorted to trolling for attention. Pathetic, but on brand for you.

Old guy Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Just to add my two cents worth to this topic. May is still here because Pestello is on the way out next year and he is not about to do anything in terms of firing May. It will not be until the next president takes over before May may be gone, and a lot will depend upon the character of the new president.

I do not think he speculated on what they would do. He was just saying that the new president will have a say in his AD and that is an important position, so I am sure it will be reviewed I thought it was a straight-forward and concise statement (especially by OG standards). He did not speculate that the new President would remove the AD. He only speculated that it is reasonable to conclude now that we have a new coach and no hint of a change at AD that things are in a holding pattern for the new President to evaluate.

Old guy Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 This is the way the Pestello's administration has worked, you do not know how the next president will want to run things. And, by the way, this was not the way things worked under Biondi. Under Biondi it was his way or out. Assuming we are getting another Pestello is something we should avoid. Maybe the next guy will be a new Biondi, who knows? 1 hour ago, ACE said: Nah - May will want to be held in high regard first and foremost by Chaifetz - a distant second…the 2 or 3 other boosters who matter and 3rd the Prez We live in a society that increasingly lives by ability to kiss rear end rather than ability to perform a job properly.

You know Dr Chaifetz is far from the biggest donor to SLU athletics correct? He also doesn't work in the offices and isn't privy to everyday business. He only knows what people tell him. This is why his son thought we were signing a guy from Army who was kicked out for cheating and not eligible to play for any school. Chaifetz also reports to Joe Conran on the BOT. Everything has to go through Joe. But keep going with your narrative that hides the fact that you supported a terrible coach and AD. willie likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply called out some of the more extreme, ridiculous rewriting of history criticisms. It wasn't necessary. There was plenty of legit criticism to be had. I figured the powers that be would take care of it and that's exactly what happened. No need to get whipped into a frenzy with an impotent grassroots movement. It appears you are still stinging from theOne scolding you for suggesting Ahearn was the leading candidate back in February.

MVP44MVC Posted May 4 Author Share Posted May 4 On 5/2/2024 at 3:13 PM, TheA_Bomb said: #1 you need to learn what irony is, it's an expression by someone that signifies the opposite usually for humorous purposes. For example, "I love walking through Terre Haute in the rain." Love is italicized (that's the slanted writing) to highlight it as the key word in this ironic sentence. It's an expression that really means the opposite. Thank you for the lesson on irony. Let me explain. The irony in my statement is that while SLU didn’t want to be associated with or participate in a sub-par conference (MVC), they (SLU) went actively seeking talent (a coach and players) from that very conference, implying to me that they see value in it despite their initial reluctance. The irony lies in the contradiction between not wanting to be associated with the MVC initially, possibly due to it’s perceived lower status, yet being willing to recruit from there when (SLU) needed much improvement, suggesting a sudden change in perspective or priorities. I think walking in the rain in Terre Haute makes your brain soggy. Now, before you give me a lesson on what a metaphor is let me explain..."the rain in Terre Haute makes your brain soggy" likens the effect of the rain on one's (A-Bomb) brain to the sensation of becoming mentally sluggish or dull, implying that the rain can have a draining or tiresome effect on one's cognitive abilities. Next lesson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
