Hawkreport: Willie Takes Off The Gloves

[Flying_Tiger]

Willie responds to his critics on Hawkreport. Must say, it was quite amusing.

I don't know how Willie finds the time to hate Iowa, considering how much time he spends steering recruits to Penn State.

 

[WEH8ST8HAWK]

He says we shouldn't say the things we say because wrestlers and their parents read the HR message boards. Then the next thing out of his mouth is him calling us idiots and so on. He is an unprofessional little boy. His bosses should be embarrassed.

 

[1stplacehawk]

I didn't think Willie said anything out of line on Flo Radio. It's clear he hates Hawkeyereport and some of the people on Hawkeyereport hate him. If anything, CP was harsher on some of the posters. Not a big deal IMO

 

[El-Jefe]

You do realize that you liked a running gag about HR ... that it wasn't a shot at Willie ... right?

 

[jschrantz]

It's ok Willie, we love you over here on BWI and everyone here respects your work. Keep bringing us in the recruits kid

I heard smalls is actively recruiting Sammy Sasso for us already from one
of my Valley associates. Perhaps he is already in the ear of a certain young Northampton k-Kid too.

Hey Chickenman, if you don't care for what MitchL posts, there's another option for you... come back to the Ped State site and rub McAndrew's back and tell him how much you appreciate all the crap he plagiarizes.

A bunch of guys on his own board don't like MitchL - that speaks volumes. That board does have a lot of great posters if you take the time to understand the vibe and tread lightly as a visitor.

Ped State - that's the sign of a rapier-like wit, isn't it? He sure got me!

 

[El-Jefe]

Yeah, I have no issue with HR. Just couldn't resist the tweak at a comment timed so closely to the "dumpster fire" label.

Jordan Oliver.

I'd also put Santoro, Rohn (father and son), McMullan, and Trenge ahead of Billman ... at least post-HS.

I didn't understand the McAndrew plagiarism comment. what is that in reference to?

Absolutely, the Billman was a TIC, kid had a world of ability though, too bad it didn't work out in State College longer

 

[El-Jefe]

That post was copied nearly verbatim (except "come back" instead of "go back") from a post aimed at Chickenman on HR. I have no idea what he meant by plagiarism, but he went from zero to jerk to nuclear in 2 posts (in response to a completely benign discussion between CM and Jammen). So lucid, rational thought probably wasn't a factor.

I think he is way off base, but I think he is referencing how Tom posts articles. Obviously it's not plagiarizing, but that is the only thing I could think of. I really appreciate the articles, he finds and posts and I get to read.

 

[letsgohawks44]

MitchL is crazy. He's been kicked off almost every board but somehow when rivals updated their boards he was able to post again.

That happened to our own Crazy Gang on our football board - both crazies in our own fan base (and their multiple doppelgängers) and rival trolls. It allowed us to relive a lot of awesome message board memories all over again.

Your best crazy fans are the Charter Members of the "Fire Brands" crowd - yeah, that would be smart

I have met some wonderful folks over the years, from every team. Even met Willie at last year's B1G's!! It would be far more productive to focus on all those reasonable fans out there, regardless of who they root for. As far as engaging the 1% who are unreasonable, do so at your own risk, it's not worth it.

Reminds me of Iowa grad Harry Kalas' nickname for Mitch Williams ... though that was affectionate.

I know how Willie finds the time to hate Iowa... it's like finding the time to breathe, eat and follow Penn State wrestling.

 

[hawkssox1]

Willie is a tool who is so enamored with himself he thinks he can say whatever he wants and get away with it.Not on HR you don't there are many BWI posters on there who I appreciate Willie is simply a blowhard trying to sell subscriptions.

Willie has done more for the sport than the entire Hawkeye Report dumpster could dream.

 

[amalone]

Willie has done more for the sport than the entire Hawkeye Report dumpster could dream.

Willie has also recruited better against TOM BRANDS and Terry Brands than Hawkeye Report posters even know. How many recruits are really Cael's kids or Willie Wonderkin's??

Let the Hawks stew.....

 

[WildTurk]

Haha. This thread is laughy. Can Suriano or Lee just commit to he Hawkeyes now so we can change the subject! Or Hall yes Hall please..

 

[grappler6]

Willie if ya get the chance, throw a few recruits Minnesota's way.

 

[LaxHawk174]

Willie has done more for the sport than the entire Hawkeye Report dumpster could dream.

I think Wrestling for Life, which has many contributers from the HR board, and the IAWrestle contributers would beg to differ on that one.

 

[amalone]

Haha. This thread is laughy. Can Suriano or Lee just commit to he Hawkeyes now so we can change the subject! Or Hall yes Hall please..

I don't think any are going to be Hawkeyes... But rest assured... Willie didn't recruit them to go there.

lol. pot, meet kettle.

the only reason I have the back-and-forth with guys on the HR is because they make stuff up.

so who's trying to 'get away' with what.

the current delirium is on ANOTHER active thread where two posters are criticizing me for saying Spencer Lee isn't considering Iowa.

here's a task for you - go find where i ever said or wrote that. or - you could come back to reality and listen to this,
http://www.flowrestling.org/coverage/251957-Flowrestling-Radio-Live/article/32300-Flo-Radio-Archive-Recruit-Predictions-and-MSUs-Coaching-Decision#.VZ3YnZNViko

where at the 54min mark, i say verbatim, that i have Iowa, PSU, and tOSU as the list for Spencer.

it's quite comical how you guys labor over something that never happened. over. and over. again.

new song, same dance to what's been going on all week.

(as an aside - where and when did i try to sell subscriptions? what do subscriptions have to do with the fact that HR turns into an asylum every time i say something they don't want to hear?)

 

[WildTurk]

Willie take a chill pill brother. I feel like all these meaningless posters are taking a toll on your heart fella.

 

[El-Jefe]

Willie, Christian's right, time to let this go.

The sane and reasonable guys over on HR might hope or think you're wrong, and they may try to prove it. They might even call you on it if the predictions prove false. But that's as far as it goes.

The others don't think you're merely wrong -- they've been long-convinced that you're evil and therefore must be squashed. The facts and contexts of your Lee and Hall predictions are irrelevant to them. You saying anything at all rang the bell for Pavlov's Hawks, and now all you can really do is wait for them to stop drooling.

 

[smalls103]

yes, i suppose, Jefe. though it's difficult to let an untrue perception fester, along with fabricated or circumstantial details.

I'm from Easton, afterall

sorry for clogging up the boards with this nonsense.

Pavlov's Hawks. Love it.
Kinda like, what happens when you put a black singlet in front of Hawk fans and then blow a whistle.

A group chant of "heeeeeeeeeeeee's staaaaaaaaaaallllllling" breaks out.

 

[Flying_Tiger]

It is kind of bizarre how several of them are going on and on about a comment that was never made. I almost posted over there asking when and where Willie said Iowa wasn't being considered by Lee but decided to stay clear of the insanity. Eventually CP decided to point this out and now he is dealing with their wrath, lol.

 

[jrd23psu]

He says we shouldn't say the things we say because wrestlers and their parents read the HR message boards. Then the next thing out of his mouth is him calling us idiots and so on. He is an unprofessional little boy. His bosses should be embarrassed.

Flowrestling is one of the largest wrestling outlets there is. They are at every major event and they are spending time telling everybody how terrible HR is as a wrestling forum. Consider that. One of the largest wrestling outlets is broadcasting how awful the people in your little corner of the wrestling world are. But it's clearly Willie and everybody else who are the ones that must be the problem. You don't see any other online wrestling communities being called out at flowerestling.org do you?

 

[DonHawkeye]

What about the times when Willie says that wrestling fans need to act more like fans of the big time sports? I am only guessing since I don't go to any other sports forums, but from what I hear it sounds like the fanaticism of HR is more like a major sports forum than any other wrestling forum.

For crying out loud it is the only forum that basically has a subforum on every other wrestling forum. It is the Don Draper of forums.
