so, maybe there was a meeting several weeks ago

Nichols requested the transfer a week before it came out, and then the family had to go public.

Media won't talk about the aspect of all our transfers and how it may tie in with pastner, they tiptoe around it and mention girlfriend stuff


What the hell is going on with local media, specifically the commercial appeal and tiger beat writers? Are they just swallowing stories and not reporting on them because pastner told them to? Do your freaking job, there's no way they couldn't have known about this stuff beforehand.

God forbid you lose your access to the human quote machine josh pastner who always has such insightful and refreshing things to say post-game.

the beat writer will NEVER be able to tell anything NEAR the truth about Josh in this kind of situation, it would be job suicide if they did , Geoff is putting out some truth.

Josh has sent his guys to sports 56 today to bash Austin and has changed a lot of the conversation to stupid angles and half truth story lines that involve Austin being a weak un honorable person -- typical Josh tactic --- he has delayed the inevitable but it wont last long

I'd say it's job suicide to not write anything worth reading while all this interesting stuff happens. Why are you even on staff then? Wolken managed to stay interesting without kowtowing all the time

We won't hear any of the real juicy stuff until Pastner hits the road.
