A $100 membership?

Please, do tell.

I am hesitant to believe it. It sounds totally plausible considering what decisions we have to judge Pioli on, though.

Yes it was, which is why I respect Nick's actions and have been able to forgive him. That bridge was torched but he paid me anyway. I never expected him to come up with a nickel more than the $500 but he did. It doesn't excuse him for everything and it doesn't buy my silence but it enabled me to move on and feel better about Nick as a person.

FAX, CFL, FMB had a courtesy membership over there while I was there and for an undetermined amount of time thereafter as he was a member of KC media at the time.

And when they are, aren't they usually well after the fact?

It wasn't news 10 weeks ago, because the coaching staff buried Charles on the depth chart.

It has a bit more relevance now that the kid finally got a chance (Thanks, LJ!) and has put up 1000 yards in 8 games.

Uncompleted trades often go unreported, yes. If this news has recently come to light, how, from where?
I dont like it when people just make statements and then dont produce a source.
If another poster on here said this, would you not ask for a source? Or would you say, "see Pioli is an idiot."

Heres the thing Warpath, I've asked Claythan to be a little more specific about where he got this information and nothing has been posted. How would Wipe know? I recall Claythan talking about how Pioli being secretive about info and not giving Wipe press credentials hurt the business. Why was this information not talked about until now? How can I believe a business that doesn't even have credentials?

TK was referencing Nick trying to get our posters to spend money over there. That Nick could care less about the guys already over there.

I'm not talking about handouts, or trials.

I'm interested in who went over there and bought a $100 membership based on Nick's information.

When he yanked Phobia away from us he took a lot of people with him. I know they didn't all pay $100 memberships... but I'm sure some did. He took one of our most credible members because he wanted our business, he would've been glad to tear this place apart for his own personal gain. All's far, but you have to call it like you see it.

We had credentials this year, just not on gameday.

I'm not posting anything because...I'm not Nick. I don't know anything about this stuff. I just posted it because it's clearly interesting.

You must not like a lot of sports news, because the actual source is rarely, if ever revealed.

I'm confident you are smart enough to understand why.

Look im not disputing that Richardson has more long term upside, if he ever reaches it. Based off of what iv seen from him over the last few years its not promising. I'm just sayin for a RT O'Call is a good run blocker. Below average Pass blocker and needs more work but is improving.

I don't think there's a magical cure for lead feet. I don't see him as a long-term starter at RT. Guard, maybe?

Well, having credentials does not equal "having sources". You can have credentials all day long and sit in a press box and attend all the pressers and not know anything at all.

But one would have thought this info would have been at least shared with the people who spend their hard-earned money for the inside information back when it happened - which leads me to believe one of two things:

1. It never happened.
2. Nick is horribly negligent with what he shares with his subscribers.

Either one bodes poorly for people who spend their money with WPI.
