This post is stupid on so many levels. I don't give a shit what some scrub Fort Wayne sports talk radio host says about Derrick Nix. Even on top of that, it's a stupid comment that he made.

I just don't think it's worth making a post about. Should I make a new board topic every time some random person on twitter makes a weed joke about one of our rivals? Or maybe every time someone makes a fat joke about Hoke? Of course not. I just don't see the point.

Wouldn't it make more sense to not comment on a thread you believe isn't thread-worthy? When you comment, you just bump it up to the top of the page.

We got it. Use the moderating option to downvote the thread and move on. This thread is on-topic (especially during the football off-season) and will stand. Comments about threads being stupid when everyone else seems to be interested are a waste of space. If you don't like it, just move on.

No - if you use the board itself, newly-commented threads also get bumped up, so all your rants are keeping this one at the top.
I don't understand the obsession with this kind of thing. Is the board supposed to be a pristine wilderness, never to be trod upon by mankind?

I made one comment, it only turned into what you see now because people responded to it. And I'm 99% that's not true... can someone else confirm/deny? I use the new tab and figured most people did, and I'm almost certain that comments have nothing to do with the order of posts.

I agree with you. My actual little brother smokes a ton of weed. I don't make fun of him for being dumb and a loser. I just watch and let him screw up on his own. Makes me look like less of an ass while he still looks dumb as hell.

Although he's got a point. This is the equivalent of childhood name-calling e.g. "Nix is a poopy head". So basically what's being reported is that Nix is full of himself and doesn't give others credit. The problem I have is he's making comments about other B1G schools' players and not directly at Michigan players. So why do we care? When he starts commenting on Michigan players (like the "God" reference), then I care. It just seems very RCMB.

People should be...

Having said that, posts about tweets are pretty lame. Anybody that really cares about what someone tweets would already be following that twitter account.

you put "ESPN" and "professional" in the same sentence. Unless "troll" is also included, I am sorry, but you cannot use professional to describe anything about ESPN.

ESPN

And I've been telling you the marijuana is dangerous, made the Cold War last 10 years longer. Why do you think the 1970s were such a bad decade? 1960s --> marijuana -->hippies --> 1970s & Jimmy Carter.
Conversely, 1980s --> cocaine --> productivity --> good economy --> Ronald Reagan.

Derrick Nix thinks Derrick
Derrick Nix thinks Derrick Nix should be the overall #1 pick in the NBA draft. Derrick Nix also thinks Derrick Nix can beat U. Bolt in the 100m and would have beat Bobby Fischer at chess 10 out of 10 times. Derrick Nix thinks he isn't fat...Derrick Nix thinks Derrick Nix is "big-boned."
These are the true thoughts that go through the mind of Derrick Nix.

Nix is just a college kid talking smack. The other was a semi-journalist pulling up a kids past to throw it in his face. Even though its provided us some humourous material to poke fun at Sparty and Nix, its still a shitty thing to do imo.

I don't like defending ESPN,
but I'm pretty sure that guy is not an ESPN employee. He hosts a local weekend radio show. The station he works for is an ESPN affiliate, which means they carry some of ESPN's programming. There are literally hundreds of those affiliates..

The Inspiration...
I could be wrong, but I believe this tweet was inspired by a Joe Rexrode piece in which Rexrode allows Nix to openly lament about how he believes that Brendan Dawson is "just like Victor Olidapo" and how Adrien Payne can do "everything that Cody Zeller can do". Long story short, Rexrode basically allowed Nix to give the traditional Spartan cry of "no respect". I would say that these comparisons are...well....not the most valid in the world. Still, it would have been far more sage for Schenkel to have stayed off Twitter with that comment, much less direct it right at Nix.
A quick study of Schenkel's feed would indicate an apology is not forthcoming, it would seem.
