Whats up with Brett McMurphy ?

I see the reverse as students tend to move toward my section to heckle the visiting team. This makes me happy. plus the constant tons of people behind the pirate ship and all through the concourse that are students it would seem there are more there every year

Why all the hate for the trib?  I am new to the board, so I might have missed something big, but I have always checked both papers for news on the Bulls.  Yeah the trib reports less, but not that much less.  I have always thought that if there was a beef it was that the Bulls always seem to be pushed into the middle of the college sports section.  I don't expect to get better coverage than the bucs, but better than UF, FSU, and Miami

Since many fans like the fact that the St Pete Times PAYS USF $$$$$ every year for the honor to be the "official" newspaper of USF Athletics...and generally only write POSITIVE articles about USF....some fans don't like it when an independent source (not a title sponsor) writes fair, objective articles...which are both positive and negative.

I think some folks don't like "objective" reporting.

Typical KL act: can't win on the field so he has to compensate in other ways...

It's the only explanantion that makes any possible sense...

Hah!

Anyway, I'd like to further agree that reporting negative news is different than always being there for negative news and choosing not to cover positive news as much (spring practice and such as mentioned by others).  Just seems to be a trend.  I really don't like criticizing somebody that covers USF and someone I've seen post on this board, but it's hard to ignore the evidence.

[highlight]Until then the Times does a fantastic job.... [/highlight]

CyberBull, are you kidding? Please tell me you are kidding.

Until the "official paper of USF" starts sending someone to cover basketball games on the road they are a joke.

As long as the USF news happens within a car ride of their offices, the Times will cover it.

The OFFICIAL Newspaper of USF Athletics (St Pete Times) doesn't send a reporter to cover Big East Hoop Games on the road?

One would think that would be MANDATORY in any deal to earn that "seal".

Up to this point, it's just been fiscal responsibility on the part of the Times. A stringer can write about a loss just as well as Greg can and for a lot less money. I'm sure that situation will change once we notch a win on the road in the BE.

BTW, as a Kanigit, I'm sure you have no clue what this term "fiscal responsibility" alludes to so have one of your non-UCF acquaintances explain it to you...  [smiley=loser.gif]
