WTF: UofMDieHards "report"

Submitted by DISCUSS Man on
Ed-S: Mods leave this please as a warning for those who come across this kid and would like to gauge his credibility. OP thank you for bringing it to our attention. Young aspiring bloggers: this is how you to wreck your journalism career before you're 15:

What are you doing man? This is not how you get credibility.

fyi, this is the guy who posted the jersey thread three below this one.

While he's obviously full of shit, I admire his passion for Michigan. I feel like Michigan Football has beaten me to a pulp over the last decade.

this isn't an isolated incident, or the first time.  It's already happened like 3 or 4 times that he's posted something stupid/plagiarized/fabricated purely to self promote. And every time half the posts are "give him a break, he's a kid learning how things work"

It's not about lambasting a kid, but at this point, he knows what he's doing, he's self aware, and he is INTENTIONALLY doing things like this to try to get ahead. 

He hasn't learned about responsible journalism from the last several incidents, he's no longer a kid "just figuring things out."

Mmmm Hmmm

Well, on one hand, the internet is forever. I have to assume he will make a clean break from his online persona(s) eventually. He will probably be able to do this as long as he didn't give out a bunch of identifying information. On the other hand, you do have a point that he appears to not (yet) have learned his lesson. Or, I hope he hasn't learned the lesson that bullshitting/trolling is the quickest way to attention as long as one has no shame.

He is still figuring things out. Seems like he's an excitable kid though, which has made his mistakes more public. People need to quit being dicks toward him. If his misinformation bothers you so much, ignore him.

Per another mod, his account here is no more....again....until he tries to do something different. Actually, he's been told numerous times off of here to just read the board, keep silent and get to know how things flow and then introduce himself as a regular poster, not necessarily to post his content everywhere. You can see how well that went, so for now he's gone.

It would be one Hell of a New Years. Christmas is definately before the dates he was talking about. I have it on very good Authority that we will not know anything until we know it. I think we all know that we won't know anything until we know it, another 10/11 days. I was reading earlier that it is going to be really quiet for the next 10 days, quiet is GOOD. Need to dig deep for pateince.

It all sounds "GOOD"

I believe the Good and tune out all that is "BAD"

Harbaugh coming home is "GOOD"

Go Blue!
