OBXWrestler 98 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 The Day 4 recap is up on Stalemates. 1. I can’t believe that we almost had Willie in N.C. and I didn’t know it. 2. This lawsuit is dumb. Just let Willie do his thing. There is room in the market for both. I like Flo, Rokfin, CP, and Willie. 3. Even though I know CP did some dumb stuff according to the case I also see him having a pretty hard task in keeping Willie “in line”. Just my interpretation but sounds like CP’s boss Ray wanted CP to keep Willie in check. That would be hard because Willie is opinionated. Which I might add, is what I like about him. I also get that the programs cutting off access to Flo would be detrimental to Flo’s market. So, I see where CP is coming from here but I think it is more of a problem with these programs need to learn to take a little criticism without shutting the doors. 4. Seems crazy given how tight CP and Willie were that their relationship just went up in flames like that. Just because I try to believe the best in people I wish they wouldn’t have let this get in the way of that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madcat11 420 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 15 hours ago, HokieHWT said: I’m not going to get into detail but for a very brief time, 6 weeks or so, I was the “Associate Director” for the RTC where I was paid a percentage of the funds raised. The title was merely to make it sound like an official position but all I did was send emails to boosters. It didn’t last long as I was balancing a new marriage, a doctoral program, a full graduate assistantship, my coursework, publications, and empirical research. The boss man didn’t like how little I had brought in so we mutually separated, meaning he said he was “finding someone else” and I said, “sounds good”. How excited are you for your impending subpoena? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Billyhoyle 2,027 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 It’s funny to me how the Flo lawyers keep bringing up “flying Willie around the world” as a job perk as if he was going on a vacation. I think 99% of us wouldn’t want to fly to some gym in Siberia to cover wrestling. I also think think it’s hilarious that they put him on a PIP for criticizing Ohio state. The fact that they put him on a PIP for that is pretty demeaning. And everyone knows once you get put on a PIP it’s time to start looking for a new job, so it makes sense that he left.

Sstern 130 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 3 hours ago, jammen said: $1,000,000 on attorney fees so far Off topic, it is disgusting to me how much lawyers charge these days. And I am one. TOSU dropped “up to” $1,600/hr. to the firm it hired to investigate the doc who fondled athletes. No one is worth that much an hour. I am positive they could have found a firm less expensive. Total waste of money. That is not to indicate that an investigation wasn’t needed. It was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
