    What bullshit. On my end, I would send Fetters an article criticizing Tyrone or the AD, and then I would get a call from Kim to let me know that Dawgman wasn't running it because 1. The timing's not right or 2. Fetters will catch the brunt of this or 3. There seems to be some things happening behind the scenes that will lead to change, so let's sit on this awhile and see what happens.. or 4. DJ, this is just a bit strong and key people will take it the wrong way.... etc.

    ... and by the way, it was/is their website, so it's fine to run it anyway they wish. Just don't lie and change facts now to make yourself look better.

    That's why I felt it was time to start archiving the nonsense. Otherwise it slides down the doogman memory/glory hole.

    And please never stop. What you are doing is a public service to everyone who values honesty and accountability, aka the anti-Doogman.

    And that sums up my entire problem with those guys. Being selective on how you run your business is completely understandable. Just have some consistency and integrity. I would have no issue with a statement like "Look we had to protect our access and ability to cover Husky football by carefully selecting our editorials". I would respect that. Denying that since is bullshit.

    I don't know any of those guys personally, but I can't for the life of my understand why Samek turned over the keys to him.

    Even though Rick's practices were always open and he seemed always ready to talk (often too much) to the media, it's my vague recollection that neither Grinalds nor any of the doogman.com Insider Expert staff including Samek ever criticized or ripped Neuheisel until after he was fired. Then it seemed like at least for doogman.com, RN never did anything for Husky Football that was good or positive including the 2001 Rose Bowl which was all Tui's doing. What irritated me was not that RN got bashed constantly in favor of first Gilby and then Tyrone, but that doogman.com seemed at times to be overboard as a propaganda machine for UW incompetents Hedges and Huntsman........ who were far more responsible for the follies of Summer 2003 than the former coach.
