[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 2289942, member: 8373"] Or they are an attempt to direct the public's attention to the asshat behind the curtain pulling the strings. The facts of the matter are that they did not do their due diligence before running their story. It is poorly written, although technically the writing is genius. It is written in such a way that they used multiple player's names interchangeably, so that one would read as if one player said something the other player said or admitted to. They built in their own loopholes for getting out of libel suit. When you quote some one, you use their full name at the beginning or end of the quote, then as that segment of the story continues, you can use their last name. What this article does is use a player's name in one place and then they switch to all last names, never again referring to the correct first name. They have 2 or 3 "Williams" in there, pretty smart to be honest. Also, at no point do they call out any of the boosters by name except for the one that is dead and the one that is not wealthy. He isn't really a booster, he runs the FCA. They made up "facts" about the dead female booster, saying she paid kids hundreds to pick up leaves at her rental properties in Stillwater, which in reality are east of broken bow. Misdirection, allegations and slight of hand writing. Classic yellow journalism. What a disgrace. [/QUOTE]
