[Deety]

Bring 'em in. Get it over with.

And after we're cleared again, turn blue waiting for the

to issue any sort of retraction, let alone an apology.

NEVER TURN BLUE.

Gheesh. :p

I am actually glad he INVITED them! I have been saying it elsewhere and I fully believe that this is going to turn into ESPN's Memo-Gate. I am going to revel in the sheer joy of watching ESPN go down over this just like I did watching Blather, 60 Min II (now cancelled, HAHA) and CBS go down over hte forged documents!!!

Hey guys, don't worry. If we are clean, then we have the right to really publicize the results in a high-profile media briefing. ESPN will have to be there, even if they give this little coverage, but the other media will have a feeding frenzy on ESPN's reporting. There may just be a silver lining!

The only problem is I can hear ESPN now. Because of the article and the accustions the NCAA has reopened bla bla bla. See we were right bla bla bla.

We are in a no win situation. This just sux.

 

[Bucktastic]

ESPN will never admit any wrongdoing....They will put some bullshit spin on this to make themselves look good.

ESPN BLOWS ASS.

Geiger said Tressel did try to help Clarett buy a car through the dealership that leases cars to several Ohio State coaches and administrators. But Clarett and his mother did not meet with the dealer to make arrangements to buy the car, Geiger said, and the dealership came to Columbus several days later to repossess it.

So Mo DID get a car thanks to Tressel's help. Too bad he failed to mention to E$PN that he didn't get to keep it because he didn't pay for it!

Excellent journalism.

ESPN did report that Geiger/Tressel told them the to-be-sold/later-repossessed story. There are a couple of places I saw that, including the latest article on ESPN about OSU inviting the NCAA for the investigation.

They still are dirty, but they did tell Tressel's side of THAT part.

 

[LloydSev]

Not at first they did not.

They only told that side of the story, later, because they were forced to after others had already.

 

[jwinslow]

I'm just saying we have to be accurate in our own accusations of hiding the truth. There are plenty of examples where they ignored obvious factors in their reporting. YSU? R Smith? Marco Cooper misquoted?

 

[LloydSev]

Sammy Maldonado lied to about the purpose of the questions.. long list of dirty backwash reporting at ESPN.

Thank god there shit doesn't come to Columbus.

Hopefully when the good news breaks, months down the road, Ohio State will aggressively push the results to the media and say "look, we run one of the cleanest programs in the country!"
