He has made some statements in the past on various topics that the sportswriters sensationalized. With that being said, it wouldn't be ridiculous to assume that there is gonna be some "witch hunting" going on here. Basically looking for skeletons in Mark's closet. For all I know Few might have a major drinking problem... You mean, the press would gang up on somebody they didn't like?!?! I've never heard of them doing that before! 😉 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 Huge pet peeve. I live in Indiana. I shop in Indiana. Last night, I am at a Meijer in Indiana. Indiana is a basketball state. But, does the stack of Athlon preseason magazines on the shelf at said Meijer have a single magazine with an Indiana-themed cover? No! They all got f#@#$ing Kentucky and Louisville covers. Bulls#*t. Rant over. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting how the media handles this Few "situation." I remember a NBC piece about 2 years ago where the author was criticizing Mark's "pot shots" at the Governor of California.

The handling will also be impacted by it not being basketball season and the fact that Gonzaga, while certainly a top/successful program, is located in the North West and is from a mid-major. Guarantee if this was a blue blood school on the east coach or in the Midwest it would get more press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goose Posted September 9, 2021 Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 A former pastor of mine had the name Richard Dick. He was a great guy but it really felt weird at first calling him Pastor Dick. After a couple of weeks never thought about it anymore. Calling him Pastor Dick squared would be even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Batesville there was a nun with the last name Dick, so hopefully that keeps me safe but I am not sure.
