I really expected this place to be exploding with April Fool's Day posts

Guess there's enough crap posted the other 364 days out of the year to make up for it though

Mature audience, trolls are still sleeping.

I think Conference USA's talk of Western Kentucky as #15 is enough.

On the internets, every day is Fools' Day.

So, it this a good place to include the news of WVU to the ACC?

Oh no he didn't!!!

On this board, where the latest ridiculous rumor from proven liars is often accepted as gospel, would anyone be able to tell the difference between the latest goofy theory and an obvious joke? I don't think so.

If I was Tuxedo Yoda (aka the Dude), I would post something completely off the charts - more so than usual. If people buy it, great! If not, just say, ah I was only kidding. April Fools!

Who are we kidding? Of course people would buy it - just like they have his last 1,478 April Fools-esque predictions.

Yes, I 'll take the praise and gratitude. I work hard to get good info for the board.

You're welcome.

I would mix things up by posting somethign accurate and realistic.

Thought about it, then realized there's no way to top the G16.

Mickey Fufari's face was in the image for the article. So I doubt anyone believed it...

Well now you know, and many around WVU wish he was dead. But he's still around, much to their chagrin...

I still remember when Mickey Fufari and my father were THE sources for WVU sports. Although my father always got the info first, even though Mickey was in Morgantown, and we lived south of Charlestion. But the SID in Morgantown (Shelly Poe) always called my father first, and Mickey afterwards...

But Mickey didn't have my father's people skills. The old man knew how to get people to say things off the record, and kept his word about it being off the record, unless it was something he couldn't sit on, in which case he'd let them know that up front. Mickey sometimes did things behind people's backs, and the old man never did...

But Mickey has changed over time, and he's now become WVU's biggest detractor. I have no idea what his beef is. Although I think it's in part because of the way in which he was forced out of his position as Sports Editor at the Morgantown Dominion-Post. The other part is probably railing against the changes over time. Sometimes I think he wants to go back to the 1950s - his heyday...
