Perhaps this is what Mandel was getting at...









Tisk, tisk, with the namecalling young Freed.

I read your whole post, and highlighted the part where you contradicted yourself. Nothing else you said had any merit because of the fact you admitted Mandel was incorrect is his analysis. Simple as that. You can try to spin it however you want.

I gotta be careful how I communicate what I'm about to. Name calling is when somebody gets mad at somebody and calls them something out of anger alone. I identify you as a fool because that's what you honestly appear to be from your posts on here. You are also very rude.

Now, we all have short comings. Of course I got more than my fair share of them. My hope is that you realize yours. You don't have to be a fool your whole life.

No, Mandel specifically pointed out that he was grading on recent on field performance only.

A few years ago when mandel had KF as his #3 top coach, KF was making big bucks then also.

Salary does not enter into his critieria.


And Bleacher Report once again proves how worthless they are....with this kind of crap analysis.
If KF wins 10 games this year, then they will be saying he is a bargain.

Suggesting that KF would tank the season to be fired so he can collect the buyout....wow...KF has more integrity in his little finger than these guys and all those coaches put together.

More integrity? Maybe. The guy wants Iowa to win ball games just as much as the rest of us. It's much better to go out on top then tank for cash anyways. He'll get the cash and the credit if he turns this ship around. He wants it. Bad.

I call it like I see it. Just because we don't see eye to eye doesn't make me the fool. My hope is that you have the ability to gain some perspective. Perception is reality. Although I disagree with virtually everything you post, I respect the way you perceive things, I just find it to be an incredibly miserable way to go about being a "fan". You very rarely bring anything new to any conversation. It's the same few songs that keep shuffling.

Your constant negativity is annoying, and you often use it in a condescending manner as you did earlier in this thread. Which prompted me to call you out. As I said before, I call it like I see it. That's what eight years in the military does to you. I don't feel the need to sugar coat how I feel. If you don't like it then use the ignore button. It won't hurt my feelings one bit. In fact, there's probably a lot of people on this board who would appreciate it :). I just utilized it recently for the first time, and have found it quite useful.

Go away, fool. I'll never attempt to reason with a disturbed person again.

For the rest of you on here, don't let this guy make you believe that I don't respond to folks just because they disagree with me. Heck, I would bet at least 75% of the board disagrees with me and I have a history of responding to everyone who does. However, there was this one girl on here who was similar to this guy. She couldn't be reasoned with either. I'm just done with someone who is totally rude, a fool and a narcissist. It's impossible to reason with them since they turn the conversation back to themselves all the time.

Apparently "the other 75% of Hawkeye Nation who disagree with you" aren't as straightforward as I am. They are probably just smart enough to not waste their time debating with you. I don't have anything better to do so I'm not gonna sit back and watch you talk to the majority of Hawk fans who disagreed with Mandel's article like they are idiots. Tell me what I have said that is narcissistic? I'm not tooting my own horn here. I'm simply telling you that the fans who have not given up on Ferentz yet deserve more respect than this garbage that you posted:

"I hope you guys know how you look to the nation when you trash a national sports writer. Even though he may not have been totally correct on his statement, he was spot on with his overall analysis of how far the program is fallen in the past few years under kf.

You need to know the rest of the country (not many of course) that is reading your mostly angry, childish remarks to him, are laughing at you. Lol..........you know Fitz is and has been for a long time now."



You post that and now you try to turn it around on me like I'm the one being narcissistic lol. That's comical. I don't care how many times you say I am a fool. That simply proves you're upset and have nothing of substance left to justify yourself.

Do yourself a favor and ignore me. Clearly you can't handle it. For the sake of others I'm done responding in this thread. It should have been closed awhile ago as we've been completely off topic for quite some time. This, like the majority of your contributions on here, is nothing but the same thing over and over again.
