Worse, banish him to ohio!

Tea & Cake or Death!?

All the players know, yet nobody has said a word? Lol yeah right. Not even good trolling.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
How do you know that no one has said a word? There have been a ton of people claiming its a done deal based on "sources." How do you know those "sources" aren't players?
December 20th, 2014 at 5:22 PM ^
Because if 105 college kids were told Harbaugh was a done deal, every news source in the country would know about it in 5 minutes. They aren't exactly known for keeping secrets.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:25 PM ^
Just imagine how much more information we'd have if those 105 guys had iPads!

He has the right to go with what he believes to be true. At least wait until he is wrong to put him in the stocks and whip him...
Besides, if he is right, he has the right to come back equally strong to those who are being mean to him now.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:49 PM ^
This is that high school kid who claims a Hoke recruiter connects him with recruits to interview. Looks like he's just crowdsourcing every iffy rumor out there and trying to break something no one else with a shred of credibility will. You can drop as many "100%"'s as you want, doesn't make it true, or credible.
Five fakes out of five.
Also, how many times does he have to mention he's 14, like we're supposed to cut him some slack?
December 20th, 2014 at 5:49 PM ^
ignore him or cut him some slack. Unless there was an implied /s in there, in which case i'm a little slow.
December 20th, 2014 at 8:47 PM ^
That's fine that he's 14, but he needs to learn he can't just lie and half-fabricate whatever he wants at some point in his life. The sooner the better I say
December 20th, 2014 at 9:22 PM ^
We have plenty of examples here in the Detroit market alone of people who have made a lot of money talking out of their ass. We can use Valenti, Sharp, Rosenberg as just a few of the examples.
He's a 14 year old kid. I don't think we have to embarass him. He's not the only one getting a little excited about the possibility of Harbaugh coming here. I highly doubt they will look at his tweets when he was 14 and say he's not getting the job.
December 21st, 2014 at 9:25 AM ^
I definitely don't think he should be ridiculed, but an appropriate 'call out' for half-truths, reposted info, and just BS will be good for his future blogging career. We have enough blowhards, we could use a few more good bloggers
December 20th, 2014 at 11:46 PM ^
Everytime he screws up runs to the "I'm 14" excuse. It's worn thin.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:50 PM ^
Wait, is this the same guy as WolverineOptimist, WolverinePatron etc etc?
Kid needs to find another hobby.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:48 PM ^
Time to ban this little douche from ever posting here
December 20th, 2014 at 9:52 PM ^
Why is the ban hammer scarlet and grey? Those colors make me feel sick inside.
December 20th, 2014 at 9:56 PM ^
duplicate, delete
December 20th, 2014 at 4:48 PM ^
That kid is a turd
December 20th, 2014 at 4:50 PM ^
Need to learn sentence fluency. Also, don't type stuff you don't have any idea about.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:51 PM ^
I think a red card is in order, he needs to sit this one out...

I think he's too young for the high school punishments. For junior high I think we just take away his Pokemon cards or something.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:51 PM ^
get removed fast enough. Mods please hurry

Ace wins:
Here's the thing, teenage writing hopefuls. I was once you. Keys to success were writing what I knew and actually learning to write.

Althought to be fair, writing is a skill that takes years and years to develop.
But yeah, these aspiring sports wrtiers need to pay attention in class, read, and study how actual reporters and writers do their jobs if they want to be the next Rob Parker.
However, to be good at it, they'll have to do more than that.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:52 PM ^
To be fair, I'm a bit impressed with his loyalty since we've been pretty crappy for most of his life, but he should post a disclaimer about his age/sources. Maybe we can get his parents to ground him for passing on bad info?
December 20th, 2014 at 5:51 PM ^
on his blog which states that he is 14, loves Michigan and his dream is to attend Michigan.

If there's ever a time to tweet a teenager, this needs to be thrown back in his face.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:24 PM ^
Eeeeh, I get the whole "try him as an adult" thought because of his insistence coupled with hiding behind the "I'm 14" when criticized. Still, the best course of action seems to be ignoring him. I think the better lesson is "if you give bad information, nobody listens" rather than "if you give act like a troll, people listen and respond." The first lesson creates a more responsible adult; the second creates Drew Sharp.

When people get super defensive like this kid, they lose all credibility to me.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:54 PM ^
Applies to much of the CC: chatter
December 20th, 2014 at 4:54 PM ^
An interesting way for a aspiring teenage journalist to introduce himself as completely uncredible.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:55 PM ^
double post.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:54 PM ^
Should we cut him slack because he's 14? Yes. However, that doesn't mean he can go around doing stuff like this. Just calm down bud.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:55 PM ^
In the last few weeks this kid has gone from being (innocently) overly ambitous kid to Ace Williams in credibility.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:57 PM ^
I'm all for this thread being caved. No benefit to increasing pageviews/awareness to this kid.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:02 PM ^
Or this could stand and serve as the expose that definitively dooms him to Ace Williams territory. Which seems far better than just letting him keep plugging his content and trying to boost his cred around here.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:59 PM ^
He's illiterate.
December 20th, 2014 at 4:59 PM ^
Poop.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:01 PM ^
He's chronologically closer to potty training than drinking legally.
I'm pretty sure I won't be listening to him.
December 20th, 2014 at 5:07 PM ^
Kids get potty trained after age 7?
December 20th, 2014 at 5:56 PM ^
For some of us when we hit 21 (or when we start drinking earlier) we have to get potty trained all over again.

Zinged your kids or yourself. Potty training at the age of 7? That was a poor effort
December 20th, 2014 at 5:02 PM ^
just read the edge of the internet chat session from last night that got all these insiders excited. that source has no credibility. cross referenced with a twitter handle he gave out and seems just another run of the mill fan....too much BS out there right now
