Comments in recent Black and Gold newspaper
I received the Black and Gold newspaper from the Yosef Club on Friday and I noticed he glowing comments about the new football coach. I am sure we hired a person that deserves those comments. +Not that I want this for App but I would love to see someone say and it be published something like,
"School X hired a coach that is not very good, and to be honest, he is a worse human being."
"Not a bad coach, but a total ass to be around."
"It is what I expected out of School X, total mediocrity in coaching and morals."
"The guy has some deep dark secrets, and the school will be on serious probation in a few years."

That’s pretty funny. Perhaps in “The Crappalchian”, if they still do the April 1 edition.

Re: Comments in recent Black and Gold newspaper
I guess some enjoy a dark, dark bit of humor and others do not. Fair enough.
For the most part the comments made about the head coaching hires at App have lived up to the comments and were not hyperbole nor sound bites. That is something for which I appreciate and am proud of from Appalachian.

Re: Comments in recent Black and Gold newspaper
I got your humor, and as a reporter I had to hear all the same quotes after hires, time after time, and it gets old. You do want one time for the AD to say something like, “we know it’s a dead-end job, and he’s the guy who would work for what we offered, so we offered, and we’ll hope for the best.” Or, “he had just sold a set of white walls to a customer on the other line, and was looking for a different challenge.”McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 4:41 pmI guess some enjoy a dark, dark bit of humor and others do not.

Or before the season. “No, we’re not excited. I’ve been dreading the start of practice all summer. I’m one step closer to being out of a job. I mean. Do you remember how these guys played last year. Sure, we only lost one player from last season’s team, but we finished last in the conference. I wish we had lost most of them. Then, we might have a shot this year.”
Alas, all we get are cliches.

Re: Comments in recent Black and Gold newspaper
Alas, there is only the "Thanks" option. In this case what is really needed is a "I am so sorry" or "Pity" as I am so sorry for you that you get my humor.AppinVA wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 4:56 pmI got your humor, ...McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 4:41 pmI guess some enjoy a dark, dark bit of humor and others do not.

Re: Comments in recent Black and Gold newspaper
AppinVa was a bit more subtle and therefore funnier in my view than compared to my over the top attempt.Rekdiver wrote: ↑Tue Feb 19, 2019 10:05 amI got it.....McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Sat Feb 16, 2019 9:27 pmI received the Black and Gold newspaper from the Yosef Club on Friday and I noticed he glowing comments about the new football coach.
